  1. argument definition according to M Python: “a connected series of statements intended to establish a proposition” I don't get it. There are hardly any women on here
  2. A full size one is typically 25.6" or 26" though mine feels longer still. Also a 2" wide nut is usual.
  3. The only acoustic guitar I ever played that handled perfectly belonged to David Pleasance. It was built for him by "a little guy in Spain". My 1st acoustic was very like the Yamaha FG150 in your (SheepDog's) pix. Mine was a FG140 I think. I filed down the bridge to make it playable. It was fine then. My next acoustic was a Fylde Oberon which I got direct from the chief luthier Roger Bucknall. A much better guitar yes, but it was still hard to play and I did exactly the same thing to that one. My Spanish (nylon string) guitar is a pig to play. The action cannot be lowered any further due to its design / construction. It was the most awkward one to play in the whole shop. I choose it because it sounds amazing. So good luck on your quest! I will be very interested to see how you fare.

  6. Ron Geesin - Two Fifteen String Guitars for Nice People
  7. Girl you though he was a man but he was a muffin
  8. Tman, truly sorry. Loved ones leave such a big hole in your life I lost my partner Jan in 2014. Until then I'd only ever had a couple of guitars (for 40+ years). By 2016 I had a house full.
  9. I just picked up an old bike at the recycling center
  10. Captain Beefheart - There Aint No Santa Claus on the Evening Stage
  11. Kevon Ayres - pisser dans un violon Kevin Ayres - Shouting in a Bucket Blues
  12. Leonard Cohen - Dont Go Home With Your Hard On
  13. Ain't Life Grand - Art Blakey's Big Band
  14. Edge: "Hold this while I go for a slash"
  15. Looks similar to a Kent Armstrong Slimbucker.
  16. Not much difference between them. The Gibsons were the least bright and the SDs the brightest. It's all personal taste but I prefer the 'bright edge' removed. The Fralins were pretty good too.
  17. A thing of beauty to behold. Congrats and well scored
  18. Reynardine - Bert Jansch (Reynardine is a supernatural fox become human) When I saw Bert do this, I realised I had worked our the guitar parts entirely differently (ie: wrong!).
