I played a D-12-20 for many years on and off the road ..drugies stole it and I replaced it with the J-12-16gt .The 16-gt has a very strong bass responce but is a little shy on the trebble.I also play a HD-28 and I will tell you ..you can play a Martin as hard as you wish all night long. It will NOT fail you ...just replace your strings each week..and you can set in with the best of them. Dont be scared of it ......it will blow away 99 of all the rest.
