How much is a Carlos 207 Acoustic Guitar worth?
that depends on an infinite number of factors, including the experience , and wealth of the owner, the type of music played etc etc, but I have been following Carlos 249s on the web for over 2 years now , and can say this: I have seen them on sale for $56 (goodwill auction) to $450. (a museum's offer on line)
Typical is $100-125. They may have retailed originally for about $100 in the 80s.
I saw one for sale in a local pawn shop for $100, went on line, read the reviews, and bought it. If you ask me ,or other life long performers, how it sounds , opinions vary. Those, when asked, who look first to the headstock to determine brand, are prejudiced, but those who simply listen, (including me), might say that my 249 sounds better than my (made in Columbus GA) McCormick, which in turn sounds better than my Martin D-18! Which is what my wife judged blindfolded
I asked her to do this because i thought that i might be prejudiced by all the hype I had read in the reviews. Things such as "I play my martin at church because it has a pick up but at home my Carlos cause it sounds as good."-or
"I refused an $800 dollar offer at a music store , because it would take me more than $1200 to replace it." I sold my first Carlos at cost to a girl who wanted to play in her church and in her ministries, but thought she couldn't afford a good guitar, , I proved her wrong. Now I have bought another which I shall keep.
I have had a set up done, and as is advised in some reviews, changed the cheap tuners for Grover's. If you are a person of modest means and love to play i would hang on to this gem. Although I "only" own a D-18, I have played D-28 herringbones and D-35s from time to time, and they dont sound any better' either. The Carlos 249 is an exact (I measured and calipered )copy of a Martin dreadnought, size wise within the limitations of the wood tools used. I believe it is the brass saddle and nut, however, that givee this model such a powerful melodious sound.
What is the hole in an ukulele called?
Sound holes are the openings in the body of the stringed instrument. They allow the sound being created by the reverberations of the strings in the wood or plastic body to be emitted into the air so others can hear them better. Typically there is a single round hole in near the middle, but they can be shaped in various ways. Some makers have been adding small hole on the side, allowing the player to hear the instrument they are playing better. Sometimes there is a 'reverb' device, a metal plate with ornate designs, on the front that bounces the sound and increases the volume.
Do you need a tremolo on a electirc guitar?
A tremolo is a quick repetition of a note (or 2 notes/chords in alternation). It produces a rumbling, thundering effect if used in the bass, and when used softly in the high registers, it can create an eerie atmosphere. Adjusting the volume of tremolos (suddenly loud/soft) can also emphasise and enhance its effect. Another use of a tremolo is the well-known drum roll used offen to signal or lead into an entrance.
A tremolo is capable of adding to the tension of a piece, or leading the music towards the climax. As such, it is not uncommonly to find tremolos at the end of a grand piece.
What is the best guitar for blues?
It depends what kind of blues you want to play. Acoustic blues should use an acoustic guitar, I also like to use a slide (when you stick a glass or metal tube over one over your fingers and slide it up and down the guitar neck. ex. "Mean Old World" by Eric Clapton and Duane Allman.) Harder electric blues should just electric guitars or semi-hollow body guitars, as they give a lighter sound so you can play acoustic sounding pieces as well as hard-hitting electric songs.
AnswerThere is no "Best" or "Perfect" amplifier for playing electric Blues Guitar. Size, weight, power, punch, ruggedness, volume, & looks are just a few of the factors that determine the popularity of Blues Amps with the Best Blues Guitar Players.
One that delivers a very high quality TONE with just enough power to fill a medium sized Nightclub full of people and not get drowned out by the drummer is very desirable.
Such an amp is widely recognized to be the 1965 FENDER DELUXE REVERB AMP.
The original amplifier was an all tube driven class A push/pull amp with 22 watts RMS and one 12 inch Oxford 12K5-6 speaker. Running on Leo Fender's Iconic AB763 circuit and driven by two 6V6 power tubes the Fender Deluxe Reverb Amp has long been considered by many Blues Guitarists to be the "HOLY GRAIL" of Blues Guitar Amps. The early model "Blackface"(1963 to 1967) Fender Deluxe Reverb Amp has about as much Pure Blues TUBE TONE as you can get from any small combo amp.
Twice as powerfull, equally as cool and BAD TO THE BONE for Blues Guitar TUBE TONE would be the coveted Fender "59 Bassman amp". With 50 watts, 4 ten inch Jensen speakers and Volume controls that go up to Twelve!, this is the Grandaddy Tone King of larger sized Blues tube amps. This is the amp that Jim Marshall disassembled, copied circut for circut and made the first Marshall JMP-45 amp from. An early Marshall JMP-45 was the amp that Eric Clapton used to record the "Beano" album with....his seminal Bluesbreakers record with John Mayall in April of 1966. The amp has been reissued by Marshall and is now known as the "Bluesbreaker" amp because of the popularity of Clapton's Guitar work on the "Beano" album.

How do you adjust an acoustic guitar truss rod?
The answer is "it depends". There are a few variables: is the action too high, too low, where is it off (saddle, nut, 12th fret). I'll give a brief explanation.
THIS ADVICE HAS NO GUARANTEE - IF YOU ARE UNSURE, TAKE IT TO A LUTHIER
1) too high
-NUT: you can either file the nut with nut files (expensive) or sand some of the bottom of the nut off.
-NECK: adjust your truss rod
-SADDLE: sand a small amount of material from the bottom of the saddle
2) too low
-NUT: buy a new nut, or add krazy-glue and baking soda to fill in the grooves, refile to your liking
-NECK: adjust truss rod
-SADDLE: buy a new saddle or shim the saddle you have
