    COME ON GUYS. Even Martin's website doesn't give body dimensions. How about all the questions anyone searching out this video was hoping would be answered. How do the body sizes/thickness/shape compare? for comfort? for New / small or youth players? How do the sounds compare? Highs, Lows, Mids?

    The big problem here is the fact these guys should have come up with opinions before they shot the video. In all the videos they do, they try to sort out their thoughts when the camera starts to roll, and they wind up bemused and virtually opinionless. If they would only take a few minutes beforehand and gather their thoughts, they could come up with some cogent reviews. Please, no more waffling.

    Interesting to see how each guitar sits differently on the lap... go to 5:30 & put your finger on your screen over the soundhole & see how when even with his knee/leg in the same position, the Dread Jr's shallower waist shifts the guitar outward, and away from the mic. 000 is more focused.

      I second that. Majority of the time is needless talking. Room acoustics are lousy as well. Sounds like they're in a tunnel. And my last gripe is the guy is playing too far back towards the bridge which makes any guitar sound brittle and quacky.

      I have an 0-18 and love it to death, but it seems more "sparkly"(for lack of a better term). The Dread Jr. has a bit more "punch" and more bottom end.
      I have tried out the Sapele Dread Jr but not the Spruce top yet... the Sapele is warmer sounding, but kinda homely-looking. I would definitely like to compare them side by side to my 0-18!

    • @JesseDylanMusic
      @JesseDylanMusic Рік тому +1

      @@anneberkeley7411 You can definitely fingerpick a dread. My D-18 sounds great that way. You need a heavier attack to fingerpick a dread, but in the case of these Jrs., it's not the same deal. I think in general, people like the more even response of certain guitars for fingerstyle. Dreadnoughts are not known for an even response, and a D. Jr. is trying to emulate that (if it can--but since it's such a smaller body volume, it's not necessarily going to sound like a dread anyway). I think the tighter waist helps with the way some people fingerpick. Many fingerpicking guitars would be a little "light" for how I play.

    Too much tuning time, disjointed discussion...great idea though, playing same thing on one, then immeadielty passing and playing the same thing on the next guitar. Makes it easier for viewers to decide than to await through all the tuning, and other talk. Otherwise decent review, especially at the end. I still cant decide though, other than the Djr has an electric option and the 000 does not, unless go with cutaway.
