Good to see such a strong PA representation here on CBN! I'm just getting started with this addiction but the support group seems incredible!

Hey Ffrogg ! Again : Thanks a Million 4 Reference to Stew Mac's Fret Calc Web Site ! It'll be an absolute God-send , as I work @ creating CBG's ... 2 in Progress. sigh ... Now I "hafta" wait til Feb., for another Social Security $ Check to hit the Bank , B4 I can Buy : Drill & Bits , Tuning Pegs , etc , to continue my activity. I phoned Mother (Long-Distance), and situated my Cell Phone between my hands playing my Diddlybow and my Amplifier ... gave her a Stereo Jam Session ! LOL ... Her Words :: " They ought to ship me off to Alaska , put me on an melting Iceburg floating adrift, w/ a starving Polar Bear swimming hungrily towards me ! ROLF ! Well , try out This "Technique" of "Playing" (such as I "treated" Mother to :: Using a Slide ... Strike ! the Neck w/ the Slide, as well as Sliding , And Strike the Body w/ the Pick also , while Picking the String w/ either Pick OR Thumb ! Wow ! It's like (2) Different sounding Drums playing w/ ya ! That was The Very 1st "Technique" I did w/ my D'bow plugged into my Amp ! (Sounded Great to me ! ;) .)
