Welcome Guitar Slinger! :D

Congratulations Tone! :AOK: Like all the others I'm looking forward to more pics... :poke: and maybe you could bottle the Martin smell and send us samples (some gas to give us more GAS!). :drool:

Ya, 7va and 7va bassa would really blow those orchestral musicians minds (and considering how much musicians tend to drink... that's quite something).

Nice post Kodiak3D. :AOK: Thanks for that. It's "Amazing" how music brings folk together (present AND past). And (there's obviously no point in keeping secrets round here) Happy Birthday!

Go Childbride! You're an inspiration! :AOK:

Welcome Programmer! :D

Happy Birthday Tim!

Welcome nogin007! :D It's good to "see" ya again. :AOK:

Merlin introduced me to this one and I simply can't stop playing it. Thanks buddy! :AOK: Maybe not something you "dark side" guys would go for... but heck, it's so simple (acoustic guitar and vocal wise) and maybe that's the beauty of it. These guys (Jimmy Fortune, Dailey and Vincent) have...

During "central heating" season I use two "super guitar Dampits." One in the guitar body, hanging off the E and A strings, and one sitting loose above the accessories compartment. I also keep a digital hygrometer (here's a cheap one) in the case and aim for around 50% RH. I first discovered...

Welcome to TheFret Jack! :D I really hope you don't have to sell your Martin. :cry: Barring selling yourself on the street... have you any other options? :poke:

Welcome Blazes! :D That's some very nice music on your site, thank you. :AOK:

Welcome luvzmocha! It's good to "see" you again. :D

Tot, FWIW here's some info on Compensated Nuts. Being a detail freak I enjoy this sort of stuff. :whatever:
