tone

I have never heard Emmons playing an ironing board but my guess would be it wouldn't sound the same as a push pull. Let me guess, which one would have a better tone. Hummmmm

different tone same player

Guitars sure do have different sound .
Checkk out David hartley on the shobud
he is super player and always sounds good but just listen to that shobud
Deep rich thick sound
To me it's the best he ever sounds.
Same player plus different equipment equals different sound
Just saying

prestige

I am sorry for being so naive but, what is the difference between the regular Rittenberry and the Prestige one? Improvements or quality.
Is there a difference in price?
Rittenberry sure does get good reviews on this forum.
Maybe there will be one in my future

Thanks in advance
