Actually, both Oneiro's and Oneironaut's are two-tracked, unless O used a loopstation. He hasn't tipped his hand yet.

My goodness, but your tone is delicious, TJ. Sweet little composition too. I'm going to have a hard time following the rules again this go with all the great entries so far!

Have you mentioned what guitar you are playing there, and how it is being jacked in?

I'm resolved to use the Taylor on the next competition so I can compete with you tone-wise. Heh. I may even break out the condenser mic. Wouldn't a competition judged just on tone be interesting?

When I was young, I fell in love with a guitar owned by a young lady I also happened to be in love with. The guitar was an original Ovation Balladeer - the first flat-top acoustic I ever heard that sounded GREAT plugged in. I have wanted one ever since.

A few months ago, I found one on Craig's List - original Kaman Helicopter plant Ovation Balladeer with case, for $50. The catch? The face was smashed to smithereens.

I've been very slowly restoring the guitar ever since. I just flush-cut the binding filler this morning. Next is to scrape that flush, then route the new purfling channel in. I figure by mid Summer I may be playing this beauty. It came with all the original electronics, all working.
