Advantages: Everything Disadvantages: None that I know
...The C.F. Martin Company is an american guitar manufacturer established in 1833, and have consistantly produced some of the worlds finest acoustic gutars. Used by stars like Eric Clapton, Johnny Cash and many many others.
The D28 design was first introduced around 1934, and is almost unchanged since. The letter D indicates that it is a dreadnought size body, and the number 28 is the design number. A standard 14 fret design, built from Rosewood, Mahogany, and ebony for the fingerboard and bridge.
I have owned and played a D28 for some years now, and am delighted with every aspect of the instrument. The build quality, looks and feel of the instrument leave you in no doubt that this is a quality instrument.
It very capably handles hard driving rhythm playing, with a strong but balanced sound, and will respond equally well to gentle...

Advantages: Huge range of sounds, + proffessional for its price Disadvantages: I find the options of changing the sounds is limited
...I bought myself a korg X5D last year, i was a bit skeptical at the time, not really knowing much about keyboards, but i havent regreted it a bit. For a start, its pretty proffessional, having the following functions:
midi compatible,
a stunning range of sounds (430) altogether,
64 note polyphony,
5 scales,
and a superb range of functions, including effects changing for sounds, and a program which lets you make your own sound for the keybord (via a computer) It also has a cool range of options for using for making madi tracks. (midi composition is where you make different trcks into loops or songs via a computer, you need a program like cubase for this)
For some people the sounds on this keyboard are not to taste, but they are changeable.

Advantages: Great sound, easy to install Disadvantages: Not great for hammers... Solos.
...Last week I bout my first set Of D'Addario Guitar strings (Orangle Knickle wound XL) and to be honest at first I thought I was playing with ropes, these things sounded amazing but were as thick as.. well as thick as really thick metal. I persume the guy I asked in the shop to select me some strings for the guitar I owned mabe could have been given a little more information or he wasn't a super assistant.
However after playing an hour a day.. ish for about a week I love them, theyre waw. I can bend them twice as much as my previous strings and the sound especiall from the E is just awesome. This was my first time replacing strings and their fantastic colour coded instructons made it very easy for me highly recommended.
the only other concern is when ever I am performing hammers with these they are very faint, if not at all audible...
