My first attempt at playing since a recent neck injury. Just after a nice and much needed rain shower. If you listen close your can hear the birds. Simple 3 string with a clip on pickup through a MicroCube. Nice short scale salmon box.

John you're too kind.

I'm going to try. It's about the only thing that brings me any comfort at the moment.

Lovely haunting sound. I hope your recovery is swift and complete, but if on the way to it you feel the need to make more videos like this, please do post them. Looking forward to more.

Thank you Jason and Uncle John. All in time hopefully.

Top Hat, I really should have expressed a little more thanks to you last night.

I'm truly flattered that you would ask.

Thanks folks.

Yes Slowpaw, it seems that listening to music has been the best remedy. Better than any meds I've taken so far.

Doctor Rock will see you through! (-:

30 years ago i had an accident which severed all the nerves in my arm, funny things nerves, i lost all the feeling in my fingers but could still "feel" they were there, the pain was agonizing for several months but listening to music helped take my mind off it all, all day listening sessions were the norm !

Please do. I'd realy like to hear it. I honestly couldn't tell you what key I'm in though. Didn't use a tuner. It's root-5th-octave (or close to it).
