Title: Swapped Avalon For J-10
Post by: bing4sons on February 23, 2005, 10:54:54 AM
Well... only for a short while.  My son and I swapped out guitars for a few weeks.  He's playing my Avalon now and I have his J-10.  It's a nice change of pace.  I plan on using the J-10 this weekend at church.  It has a beautiful rich, full tone.  You don't have to strum the Avalon hard to get loud volume and basically strumming harder doesn't buy you a lot.  With the J-10, you can really vary the volume levels a lot, by how hard you strum.  It's great for really agressive strumming.

Have fun with it Bing.
Since the J-10 is a "strum monster", be sure to incorperate some Townsend like windmills for a little extra effect. :)

For a couple of weeks anyway.  I stated several times that this was a temporary swap.  He loves his J-10, so he wouldn't want to trade it anyway.  He named it "Cadillac" and signed up on this forum with the same name.

I have removable clear pickgaurds.  I told him if anyone else plays it, to be sure to use the PGs (he doesn't need one, with his playing style).  BTW, the Avalon's still not for sale.    :P
