Buying a guitar is such a subjective experience, and like you, I always over-work it! But that's just how it is - you want to be sure you get one that you are really happy with. SO the one that...

So beautiful - thanks !

Hey Tig, I hear ya re the 'getting comfortable with being uncomfortable' - just recognizing myself that it goes with the territory of getting on in time... curiously, I also hit a wall with playing...

And Happy Santa Lucia day, too! (I knew what those saffron buns were for :AOK). Sounds like you have some nice new toys to play with - hope you had a great day, best wishes!

Robert! Hey, I feel like I just fell off a cliff... Awesome playing - but why did it stop so soon!! Best to you, hope you are well.

Backstory? Nice work if you can get it!:AOK

Most likely one of the many Chinese Gibson knock-offs, I would guess.

+1 on that sentiment! That's some mad guitar, Robert - you never fail to impress!

I wonder if the 'grab' you were feeling was between your fingers and the wood of the fretboard, and not the frets themselves. I've used lemon oil before and not had this experience. Oily frets should...

I like this perked up take on this great song! That you singing? I only recall instrumentals that you've posted... Good work, whoever it is:rockya!

Ah, if only fat sprout could be fixed with a file...:D! Cool guitar Steve - but please do not apply gasoline to my GAS embers. They have finally burned down to almost nothing, but it doesn't take...

Hey, Pete - glad to hear that you are well!

Looks like a fun project, Vood - good to hear from you! You WILL, I hope, inform us of your reaction to the finished project...:)

Was thinking that wasn't too far from home - but, Wow - that's a long drive from Camrose!

Glad to hear that you are all well in your neck of the woods, Robert. SO sorry to hear about your dog's troubles...:( - she's so young...! Could it be possible that your little daughter is getting...

Blast from the past! Trippy flashback indeed! Great take on the song (forgot how much I liked that one), and fab slide playing, Robert - geez, what tricks do you not have up your sleeve??!!

Wow, Rev - that's a serious change! And as you say, in the midst of all the current mayhem! Best wishes in your new home and with the new work.

Hey everyone who still checks in on occasion - I found myself wondering, with things so quiet here at the Fret - how all of us remaining Fretters are doing. I feel a friendly connection to many...

Hey, Robert - sorry that I/we are late with forum Birthday Wishes - hope that you had a great day and a fitting celebration!

That was very funny, Zip...! No problems on my end and it'd be a shame to lose the history (since that is most of what is left... but I'm a history buff).

What!! Say it ain't so! As it happens, I'm close behind you Vood, but I KNEW how old I was...:whatever:

Nice melody using the scale - and fun to play as a warmup.

Hey Vood - nice to see you here - seems like it's been a while - glad to hear that you are able to put your collection to work! Happy retirement! Extra special that you get to make music with your...

Another great lesson! Thanks, Robert! A whole new structure of Hendrix chording to learn about -

I'm not set up to join a jam, but would love to hear what it sounds like, if it gets going and that's possible.
