The man asked for opinions,I gave him mine.I heard a
Beard and a Tennessean played by the same man one
after the other..I've heard Jerry Douglas play and
whatever he was playing didn't sound that
impressive.His playing is another matter.I know that
Beards and Scheerhorns and Clinesmiths are expensive
and so far I haven't heard anything that makes me
think they'ed be any better than a Tut Taylor.The
Wechter-Scheerhorn I heard wasn't that
impressive,either..I happen to like my
Tennessean,sorry my opinion doesn't jibe with yours.
