Messing around with 12 bars on my 6-string tuned open D for slippery sliding. Trying to get the pinky slide thing after busting my ring finger a couple weeks ago.

Bad Finger Blues ( hey, everyone add a verse!)

My baby gave me this guitar, it's more than I can use
Yeah, my baby got this guitar, and it's more than I can use
She says my bad finger leaves her with the blues

Cuz when I make it wiggle, she doesn't even giggle
And when I make it shimmy, she never hollers "Gimme!"
It's leavin' this poor boy confused
I ain't no great singer, but my ole bad finger
Has blackened my life with the blues.

Wes, he needs some lyrics to bad finger blues.   Can we fix him up?

Thankseveryone. The finger is healing well but feels very strange with no nail. I'm Leary of using it too much even though it feels better. Its only the second bone I've ever broken.the other was a toe.

Bemuzic, the action isn't terribly high so it has taken a lot of practice to get the right touch.

Keni Lee, thanks, I hadn't heard that story. I am enjoying the practice. :-)

rocking.

Sounds good. Great to see and hear you are not letting a set back slow you down. You know just like the Tony Iommi (Black Sabbath) finger accicdent story? (Google is you don't know it) Enjoy your practice, Keni Lee
