Guitars.. What you got?

Anyone own or played a baritone acoustic? How does it sit in the mix with a traditionally shaped acoustic. I have a dread and play it occasionally in church when I'm not playing an electric. Wondering if a baritone would be a good compliment to the band with another acoustic player (maybe sets with no drums and bass so as to occupy a missing frequency).

Did you use a template and cut it? If so, how? I would like to put a pick guard on my T5, for protection and to cover a pretty decent scratch that was there when I bought it.
I did make a template but I didn't end up needing it, although it was a pleasure using those old shop skills nonetheless.
I took the adhesive sheet, laid it sticky side up on a table, lined up my guard on top of it, took a heavy book and pressed it real good to stick. Took a razor knife and trimmed away the sheet. Then took a nail file and rounded off the edges and holes. It was delicate but easy work.1000001181.jpg1000001179.jpg1000001180.jpg

Oh, so it's actually stuck ON your original guard. I see now.
 
Saw 2 of the all-time greats last night....Don Felder and Tommy Shaw. Those guys can flat out play!

Went ahead and ordered the biggest Power T decal on the official store.

Until it arrives, here's another "artistic" shot of the backside of my headstock. Yeah, I said that.. I'm bored and y'all are typically a good audience. 🍻

My Lefty son is ready to move up to a nice A/E. Any recommendations on where he might go and play on a decent variety of Taylor/Martin/Gibson models to see what feels right in his hands and to his ear? The stores I've been to here have very few LH options.

I'd assume the Gibson store on 10th Ave in Nashville has their full line. Gruhn stocks the brands you named. Maybe worth a call if you're willing to make the drive.

If you do come to Nashville, might was well check Corner Music too.
