Re: Reintroduction To Guitar - A Timeline

I would also like to cut back the headstock to give it the traditional open book design, which I have seen people do, but it's well beyond my woodworking skill set and far beyond my patience.

Re: Songs where Bass takes the lead

I just bought one of these. It is a tiny little thing (about the same size as a guitar overall but the body is slightly smaller)...sounds absolutely fantastic and is so much fun to play

Re: underway again

Man, I've always had aspirations of writing - a novel or a screenplay. But all my best ideas come when I've got no way of capturing them, and I've always forgotten by the time I get to a device or paper & pen. :bummed: Install a voice recording app on your phone, record the ideas to your phone ...
