What makes a 1/2in Ellsworth Gouge different or better than say a Sorby 1/2in fingernail grind gouge?
Thanks !
Thanks !
Well, that's pretty ignorant. Everyone knows the brown picks have better sustain.Can't argue with your profiles.
I knew a guitarist once who insisted that red picks sounded the best on his acoustic. One night he refused to go on stage because he had no red picks left. There was no convincing him it didn't really make a difference and he could play just as well with a brown pick.
I think a Ellsworth gouge is like that red pick.
Yeah, it's funny how it seems that most of us guitarists latch onto one type of pick and don't feel comfortable with anything else. Mine just happens to be the green dunlop Tortex pick. I'd lost too many picks from them slipping out of my fingers from the sweat. It doesn't have the attach that my (forgot the name but it was a smooth kinda thick stone pick) had, or the stainless steel ones like Vaughn uses for that matter.
Sorry for digressing.
