  1. Thanks for the kind words and advice, everyone. The left hand is progressively getting better but it was least damaged. The right hand (my picking hand) well, we shall see. Gotta find a open MRI as I discovered this morning I can't manage the closed one. At least I can still strum a little!
  2. I accidentally banged my hands into a cactus and now have arthritis symptoms that are restricting my playing due to stiffness, swelling and pain. 5 weeks of this with little or no change. Have seen a couple of doctors who don't seem to be too familiar with this affliction. Although one of them did diagnose it. Prescribed steroids which gave a bit of relief but nothing lasting. Regardless, having an MRI tomorrow to see if any plant matter remains in my hands. Hoping that's not the case as surgery is the only real option as remedy. Just thought I'd ask if there were any gardener types here that might have a bit of advice from experience. Thanks in advance. Plant thorn arthritis. Who'd a thunk it FFS...
  3. Yes, your J35 an your playing eased right in there. Very nice! Thanks for the tip on the other gal as well.
  4. Very nice! Really a great sound together. Not a tune I'm familiar with but a lovely melody. My awareness of the octave mando is only recent since I've been listening to gal named Sara Jarosz. Liked this a lot. Thx for posting.
  5. recycled skateboards: Might be lacking in tone but what the heck...
  6. If skill were a prerequisite for fine guitar ownership, I'd be playing a Squire.
  7. My adi/rosewood prototype JB will be back home from Bozeman on Tues. It has been missed.
  8. Never play out anywhere. Strictly at the house. Thanks! Hope all is well with you!

  9. I haven't seen another one like it. wondering what Gibson calls it.
  10. Here's the pick guard on my Western Classic. It looks like some kind of composite material. It's a bit odd but I'm not put off by it. Especially since this guitar just sounds like a million bucks.
  11. Are we prevented from adding images to replies? I'm trying insert an image and it's not happening. I click on the icon and nothing happens.
