Nylon guitar

6 Aug 2010, 12:15

Would any of you that have already purchased the new Nylon guitar mind giving us your impression of it? I am interested but I am not the musician that many of you seem to be. Your expert knowledge of how usable this addition to our Fantom's capabilities would be appreciated. I know that I can purchase and return in 14 days but I would still rather have some expert opinion as to it's value.
Thanks for your consideration.

I would but I tried to purchase it but can't access to it the last time I tried (2tice). So, I just have to wait till I see whats up with this new announcement.

After playing Art's creation I played the factory acoustic guitars and I LOL'ed.

This is really good stuff. It's a must have.

The slide noise and knocks are very good.
Very clear subtle pluck noises to capture strum noise, very realistic. Played for hrs already. Will definitely use on future projects.

And:

This sounds far better and fuller and more intimate than the motif classical guitar.

And:

Purchased and loaded Nylon today. I gotta say, for $49 it's a great sounding guitar.

Could you please tell me what was the issue at our store? This sounds strange, especially since we had many orders for it already and I didn't see any unsuccessful order attempts for Nylon yet. I've only seen a few uncompleted orders but they had no e-mail and address filled in.

Just didn't know how to complete the order after inputing my Card. I didn't see anything after that.

en76, but you had several successful orders in the past, I am not sure what could be happening now. After you put in your credit card info, you get to the order confirmation page. I assume you don't see this page. In this case, you can try another web browser like Safari or Firefox.

the Nylon kicks arse. it will take your acoustic guitar playing to a whole new level. i like Flamenco2 and PureNylon2 (i think it was called) and edited the slide noise a little bit so the random pitch doesn't affect too much. basically editing the sound is very easy (no different than other patches) and very quickly finds itself in your mix, very clear sound.

very dynamic guitar playing. i thought the stock G's guitars were 'okay' but always liked the Motif's acoustic guitars.... until now. :p
