Bruised fingers

[just strum]

Man Strum! I could never get away with that!! Maybe if my family was out of town I could. Glad you had such a great day! ude: :

Steve, my family is getting older and both kids have their drivers license. My wife worked until about 3:00 yesterday and then was in and out of the house. The kids off doing their thing, school activities and hanging with friends.

So now I tell the wife I only got in maybe an hour or two of quality time yesterday and I need to put some time in today

I'm suppose to paint the master bedroom and bath, but maybe next weekend.

When I first sold off my amps...before "giving in" to the idea of borrowing my daughter's Micro-Cube...I played acoustic exclusively for a month.


When I plugged in an electric after all that time, my fingers were mighty ball-pean hammers of suck, that threatened to punch through even the sturdiest of rosewood fretboards. My vibrato was quick & warbly, and I could breal concrete with a fingertip!

Okay almost all that is true, but the benefit of getting used to these techniques on an acoustic is being able to perform all but but the concrete shattering techniques with less effort on a well set-up electric.
