Thanks very much and thanks again Derek. Surely it's too early in the morning to be smiling so widely over your comment but I hugely appreciate the encouragement. I need to learn some songs soon so that I can go out busking lol. Thanks again and have a great week.

Thanks Andries. Practice definitely pays off. I think it might be easier doing strong vibrato on a short scale because there's less neck and a little jiggle goes a long way between small frets? Not sure and I might be imagining it. If it is true then maybe the reverse is true too and doing slight vibrato is more difficult? Not sure. Thanks for the compliment and encouragement. :)

Thanks Jim. Yep I'm overjoyed with it. Keeping me busy. Just being careful that my other guitars don't get left out and start being jealous. Wouldn't want any bickering at the parties.

Thanks Turtlehead. That's a huge confidence boost and I really appreciate it. I've definitely been putting hours into the practicing and I'm more than happy that it's showing. It's difficult to see the progress we are making ourselves sometimes so I hugely appreciate that confidence booster to spur me on. Cheers :)

Clock I might have to adopt that saying. Happiness in where you're at and a striving to get better. Great saying and thanks muchly. :)
