dcmey · 01-10-2011, 09:02 PM

I uploaded a video of me playing my new Martin OMC-1E. Tell what you think of my playing and the guitar. Thanks

YouTube - Martin OMC-1E demo - Have I told you lately

mind blowing dude. you have played it wonderfully. well, i also love to play it. will upload my video soon.

Nice little diddy. Love the Martin. I have an OM-21 that has been with me for more than ten years and will go to the grave with me, or at least to my kids when I die. Keep on picking in good health.

Thanks for the compliments. Cathy I can't see wait to see your version of the song when you upload your video.

Nice job on that! That's a beautiful guitar. Was that an original song?

I wish I could write songs like that. That was a Fred Eaglesmith song, check him out if you haven't heard of him, a great americana songwriter from Canada.

Congrats on the OM. You've got a friend for life in that guitar.

I have an OM16. Love the wide nut on OM's.

Lovely looking guitar...sounds great...and a sweet tune too...and that goes to everybody who posted a vid above!

These Martins sure do nail a gorgeous tone.

Thanks Joff, BTW I know you just bought a new Martin could you make a video so we could see yours in action to? It's real easy I just used a digital camera.

joff · 01-15-2011, 06:30 AM

My digital camera is not any good...it is about 7 years old and it has developed a fault...anything indoors looks pretty grainy and on video mode it is worse...and the sound quality will be awful! I have a mate who would be able to vid something with me but i won't be seeing him for a couple of weeks.

My OM-21 is definitely my favorite guitar. A Martin just sounds exactly like a guitar should, IMO. I love it!

Pardon the crappy recording quality, but here's me and my wife on a rainy day about a year ago:

YouTube - Love at the Five and Dime - Nancy Griffith (cover)

Thanks! I used to try to get her to be a little coffee shop duo with me or something, but she's not really interested. I love how she checks on me after I mess up in the first video (about 1:45). It was kind of the same thing over and over so my mind started wandering...

I'm a little annoyed that the guitar's a bit out of tune in both videos; I always have that problem when moving the capo around.

Lots of nice playing in this thread; keep it up!
