Location: Ottawa, Ontario, Canada | I've noticed some acoustic guitar makers are making models with sound holes (what they're calling sound "ports") in the sides. One even makes a model with a sliding door to close the "port."
Does anyone have any experience playing one of these? I imagine it would project a lot more sound in the direction of the guitarist, but I wonder if it would affect the sound projecting to the audience.
On a purely aesthetic level, I can't say I'm crazy about the look of them; maybe it's just the newness of the concept.
I wonder what the Mother Ship would think if you sent an O back with instructions to cut a big oval in the side of the bowl. :eek: |
