So,
as one of several caretakers for my brother Will, just coming home from stem cell transplants, I need to be at his house for hours--and want to practice up some slack key without disturbing the peace! He needs to rest, and constant "nahe nahe" may become annoying dribble and drone when on chemo brain.

I have a Goodall acoustic, which is nice, but may boom/bleed a litte in his small condo--he needs to rest, yet I need to practice for June workshops!

I liked Daniel Ho's Yamaha silent guitar....with earbuds, and a couple nice acoustic with reverb settings, was kinda fun to play. He used it on stage, but the real appeal...

He actually liked to stroll down beach and practice, standing in the surf.
If there still coming in around $300 or so, on Musician's friend....
and of course, have to see if I'll be allowed yet another instrument in our 1,200 sq. ft home!

Might be a good, quiet way to practice while I caretake my brother
Will......
I should hear his voice, but have a way to get some HSG playing...
any feedback Ya'll?
