If anyone has the Singstar Playstation game, they will have a pair of mics that are not too bad. They have a 3.5mm jack which will plug straight into a laptop or PC. Well, you can plug one in. That's what I'm going to try, anyway! But, will we have to check Google Map/Earth to see where we are in the circle? And where do we put the campfire? Might be best if Zurf makes a list & just shouts out who's next...

Funnily enough, I was thinking of putting nylon strings on an old Yamaha steel string Jumbo, but someone at Zurf's local music store told me it was a bad idea. I also played a couple of songs at a private party recently, and a young lady I vaguely know was also playing. She had a Yamaha (again) that looked like a steel string, but was designed for nylon strings, with a classical type headstock. She picked it up in a junk shop £15 (about $23)!

Great idea, Mr Z! It would be churlish to refuse - so I won't be a churl. My webcam is rubbish, though. Must try & work out how to use a digital camera as a webcam...

Friend of mine (a really good guitarist) sold his Martin and bought a Tanglewood instead. Not sure which model, but it's mahogany (mostly), quite a small body - will try to find out more...

Welcome to Chordie, Dean! I have a guitar with your name on it...
Cheers!

Welcome to Chordie from across the pond, KCC! It's a gooood place...
Cheers!

Steely Dan - just never get tired of their stuff...

Have seen them used, never tried myself. But I want one too! There's a local guy that I see at open-mics who makes them, I think - but haven't talked to him yet...

Hi Sonnya, welcome to Chordie from across the pond.  It's a great place, especially for beginners - just keep up that practice...
Cheers!

G'day yourself Bushy! That sounds like a huge project to be involved in - hope it all goes well for you. Stay safe and enjoy your Christmas break. Happy New Year too!
Cheers!
