New pix.

From CGDA on 8/26/2013 3:03:07 AM

Bob, I've just added five new pictures of my Paras.

I'm planning to record a video using two of my Paramounts.

It would be great if all the members of this group would share some videos or recordings done with their Paras.

I will do it myself when possible.

All the Best everyone!

Marco

These are great pictures Marco! Let's keep the pictures, videos, recordings coming. Does anyone have a Style D or E ?

I recorded this clip with my "Leader": I think the particularly crisp tone is due to the light gauge of the strings (I received this instrument from the States and didn't change anything in its setup):

Nice playing Marco! The Paramount sounds great too. Makes me want to get another one.

I'm glad you like my Paras and my music!
Here's my "Style 1". It sounds better than my "Leader", IMO. Do you agree?

I think that they both sound good in different ways. Your Leader has more treble and cuts through a bit more than the Style 1. The Style 1 is a bit more mellow to me. But that's the great aspect regarding the Paramounts. Each model has potential to produce a wide range of timbres. My Aristocrat is like your Leader and my Style A is like your Style 1

That's why I'm looking for a Style D or E. I'd like to hear if there is any difference from the Style A or Aristocrat.
