Hey Alan, Great story! And a humanitarian/music also. Keys to the city? Wow, you
   must be some kind of a celebrity there now. So glad to hear all is getting better
   over your way, thanks to people like you and the company you work for. Free
   beer? Now I know you Aussies ARE a great bunch of folk!      Mike

Welcome to Chordie BigMike. You'll find people here eager to help new members
   as shows the good info above. Hope you find it. Btw- like the name.     Mike:)

Went to the weekly jam last night and took along the Crafter to give a test run. It did pretty
   darn good. Everyone liked it and was impressed with the price tag. I have to watch for the
   acoustic feedback though, but all in all I'm still smilin!

   Funny, I was talking with a friend last night and come to find out he has the same software
   as I do and he actually uses it! So maybe soon on some recordings just don't ask me to
   define "soon". lol

   Good luck Dino at GC. Last time I inventoried their guitar selection no Crafters came up.
   Hey-good idea having headlights. You could see where you're heading! BTW- that is a
   "take a hike" floor mat, one of two. Good observation Deadstring!

   Dino- you might try Crafters web site for a dealer near you.              Mike

Thanks everyone, I'm happy so far. It really does play well and sounds well. Christopaul--
   thanks for the info. Did not know that they are that popular and priced well. I think it's
   priced very reasonable for the quality.

Dino-- the on board electronics is an L.R.Baggs under the saddle pup. It has a tuner that with
   a push of a button is activated and also enables a silencer so not to be heard while tuning
   mid way through a song if needing to. It lights reddish if a string is out of tune and turns
   green when in tune at 440 hz. There are 4 eq's, a volume control, phase button and low
   battery indicator. The battery "box" is next to the input jacks. Good advice, thanks, Mike

Very nice Mark. You guys got it together! Hope your adventure takes you where

   you want.   Mike

Thanks all, I suppose next time I'll take everyones advice but what fun would that be?
    I'd have to hang out at the nail salon or walk up and down the ladies clothing aisle.
     lol, still working on pics,  Mike

Welcome to Chordie Srpetty. If you are young and stick to learning the guitar someday
    you will be saying: "Where the heck did all these guitars come from ?" Trust me it will
    happen. Not saying it's a bad thing just sayin.
   
    Fast fret. I used it many moons ago when first learning on acoustic as it it made the
    strings kinda slippery or smooth. On fingers yet to be calloused well it can help ease
    the pain somewhat. Not sure what kind of applicators are out there now. I'll bet there
    are different brands also.  Best of luck,  Mike

Awesome Deadstring! Keep the good work going.      Mike

Hey Bushy, once again glad to see you skirted disaster one more time! Hopefully

   things will stay quiet for you for a long time. This conjures up the thought of

   those who live in annual flood plains or tornado alleys and why they continue to

   to rebuild and stay? I'm sure each has their reasons but each time disaster strikes

   people get hurt or worse. Then it hits me: I live here in the Pacific northwest

   surrounded by volcanoes, a major fault line to the south in California and the 2nd

   largest fault line half an hour drive east of my house.LOL       Mike

Lots of good tunes above, some I never heard of or even the artist. Many time I find
   if I hear it I'll recognize it though. Been working on a lot of stuff now that I'm laid-
   off again. Trying to get a recording area setup. Newest tune- " The Mountains Win
   Again", Blues Travelers.    Mike

OH,we'll have to see BS. Rodgers will play on fire. I think the Pac is very hungry and those

  players with rings are not as hungry. Mathews will be a virtual animal.

  Going to my long time friend and neighbors for sundays game. He went to the coast

  (Oregon) and bought fresh oysters to put on the BBQ. We get the beer on ice, place a

  couple bottles of snake oil on his work bench and load up the wood stove. Place the

  roll out tv in the corner, grab our comfy seats and while the women folk are busy

  assembling the food he fires up the BBQ. His garage/shop is perfect for our get-to-

  gethers. Lots of fun. No fear of spills on a cement floor either. Have a good one, Mike.
