Here in Georgia most everybody I know drinks sweet tea. I like a big cup of coffee to start and finish my day and water during the day. A southern meal ain't complete without a glass if sweet iced tea though.

Listen with your heart and all of the annoying sounds will disappear
That or at least you'll be quicker to silence the noise because of the compassion for those that are making it. If it is disturbing your playing just play louder.

Most anything Bluegrass but Doyal Dykes and Doc Watson are awesome. On the rock side id have to throw Clapton unplugged in there.

The flatwounds are good for jazzy or blues types because they help produce a different sound so if you like the way it is now stay with them. I use round steel strings from a few different brands and they work fine. I favor Ernie ball slinkys and Dunlop DRs size 10-46of and they sound better for brighter sounding rock styles.

That was good chevo. I've never heard of him before. Here's another one new to me or at least this one song. I think it good anyways. Great blues tone.

I've noticed more spam activity since I started visiting regularly again. All of the mods are doing a great job of handling them. Keep up the great work guys and thank you for keeping this forum amongst the greatest.

Good music is still out there, you just gotta look harder for it. Most of what is being pushed by the record companies is pretty faces with no true musical  talent.

The Fender sonoran is a fair guitar for a beginner but the Kingman is a little better since it has a solid top. Micheal Kelly made one a few years ago called the visionary series that has a variable set neck that made it very easy to raise or lower the action with just a turn of athe nut on thethe back odto the meck which would be great for going to slide height back to a lower playing height. Most people just use two guitars though. One for alternate tunings and the other for standard with both having different playing height.  Hopefully this was helpful.

I've heard a lot of good things about those SilverCreek guitars and an awesome price for an all solid wood acoustic.

Sounds fun. Take some pics if you are allowed.

Here's one of my favorites from Freddie King.
