Monroe Stock in Monroe NC would be great for this area! They even had Tommy Emmanuel there last year! It would provide plenty of music related entertainment and yes there's a river close by with camping and excellent fishing...lol  Actually I fish these waters quite often and they offer some of the best blue and flathead fishing in the country! I've even got some friends that own river front property close by that I'm sure I could get permision from so it wouldn't have to be a crowded public campground. It'll be coming around this spring. If anyone is close enough and wants to attend get in touch with me and we'll try to organize something. Peace!

Sounds great to me!   Sort of a Chordie Woodstock...lol A weekend of campfires and guitars...It'd be a ball for sure! Peace!

Last rebel and upyerkilt, both of your links are carrying me to my own songbook? I had the same problem with mine. James corrected it for me. I believe you may have to search your songbook by name and post the link versus hitting my songbook and posting that one. Not sure though...maybe someone else can help us clear up the glitch...Peace!

Thanks for the correction there James! Sorry bout that. You've got some great songs in there! I nice range of music. I found quite a few to play with.

Yea I found the sick puppies through this vid and was inspired to pick it up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PpzkHhgcZG4  Really a great song (IMO)

Hey Doc, I've done this before. A seagull s6 I had previously. It was almost new so I was able to remove the other pickguard with out any discoloration. I left it without a pickguard, just liked the look...It's a little more complicated then that though. A new nut has to be cut and the bridge and saddle has to be replaced. I did it because I could get a great deal on a left handed model and was able to do the majority of it myself. I've also ordered a 12 string model of a guitar because of the slightly wider neck it had and strung it as a 6 string. I loved the 6 string version of it but the neck was too narrow for my taste. Stringing the 12 as a 6 worked wonderfully and she played excellent.

The buyer will pay all shipping costs but if it's too high it will effect the price he's willing to pay....The costs of shipping just seemed really high to me. I didn't know if there was something I was missing?

I ordered my first guitar online. I don't have a real music store close by. Even if I did I wouldn't have known what to look for in tone or playability. At the time I couldn't even strum one evenly much less form a chord. I would have just ended up following the sales person around the store and probably buying the guitar with the most mark up to put cash in his pocket. As that would be the one he'd have swore was best for me to start with and I wouldn't have known better. Instead I did alot of online research. I knew I wanted to put around$200 in a first instruement so I browsed the retailers online reading reviews. I made a list of the ones I was considering and then went to music forums and asked on personal opinions from more experienced players. Everyone was helpfull...Isn't it great how music can bring people together! I ended up getting a Takamine G340. I was pleased and after a little (well OK, ALOT) of practise and playing some other guitars I feel that I made a good choice. I have since then sold it but would recommend them to anyone.

I think Frankster made a wise choice also. I love the Godin line, a great value! If I started over I would consider them...Hell I'd buy one know...lol At the time I had never heard of Godin Guitars.

Yea I checked 'em out. Some good stuff there!

I carried my 3 boys to the park this past Sunday and decided to carry the old guitar with me...Anyway, While they're playing I find a picnic table and sit down and start playing around some. A few people migrate over to listen and about a half hour into it I play kvraagetaan by the Fixkes. Just the tune as I don't know the lyrics yet..;) After I finish it several people inquired as to what song it was and a couple even had me to replay it so they could record it on their phones. Just thought you'd find it Interesting... I believe it could be a hit here in the US if a translated version was ever done.

Also there's an easier way to finger the chords. If you just take into consideration the actual strings that you'll be plucking. You should be able to work it out but if you need a hand let me know and I'll make you a quick vid with the easier fingering positions.

Hey Topdown, Yea I've been thinking of making that trip. What days are good for you generally? I could leave here about 8 or 9 in the am and get there around lunch. Any day is good for me ( Being self employed has it's advantages when you want to take a day off...lol) Just give me about a weeks notice and I'll see what I can arrange. It'll be fun to meet and jam some. I may partake in 1 or 2 beer but generally I don't drink so you'll come out of it pretty cheap...lol
