To all my treasured friends in the US of A, from your Limey Pal, my best wishes for your special day ! I'll even resist making some crack about your losing...

Hi Waylan, I admit that I am on about three different guitar nerd lists, and they all go straight into my "Acoustic Guitar" file, but I've just checked my...
Hi all, there is a rumour around that you have all gone away, and died, or taken up the banjo (which is worse !) This, therefore , is my provocative thread to...
i agree, anything with a cut away should be thrown away. a big problem in the guitar manufacturing world is they are producing guitars thar are quite simply a...
Dear Grumpy, You must not play much lead if you are willing to toss all cut a ways in the can. What about Ovations that are designed from scratch to be...
Oh yeah.... I forgot (yet another almost senior moment) I play Banjo and Mandolin along with guitar... Sooooo what does that make me??????????? Grumpy II ...
Hi fellow grump. I play lead breaks quite a lot, but rarely take them above the 7th fret. I'm a blues/country picker, and like the sound of open strings and...
Heheh ! well I'll admit to owning a mandolin and a dobro, and I have a frailing banjo somewhere - but only as a fly-swat. Andrew Perry Singer-songwriter,...
I have an idea. How about an adjustable guitar? No, not kidding. I've seen other kinds of weird guitars. How about a guitar that adjusts by sliding in and out...
Hey Waylan! Of course you can adjust the scale of a guitar, assuming you like a guitar with a zero fret - it's called a capo. :-) Don't know about the...
I have seen an early version of the "travel guitar" made by a British luthier. It literally folded in the middle with the neck able to be recessed into the...
Upon dwelling on your idea for a few moments (not that long I admit) it occurs to me that the real "convertible guitar" is the electric hybrid monstrosity. I...
Grumpy Andrew, I have two Guild guitars also... and although I hate to go along with anyone (:)) they do have the better sound... (No pieces missing)... oh,...
Hands that touch banjos shall never shake mine!! (Well, if she is pretty this doesn't really apply.) I don't care for cutaways myself, more from an aesthetic...
What are the chords for Neil's "Be the Rain" No one seems to know. I can do a D drop down if needed. My Fender aint singing on this one yet but I've almost...
Hi Ed, taken with relish, I want to start a slight change of thread. My pal Bob (Lebeda F5 style mandolin and a beautiful Bourgeois 000-12 fret) were...
well, i like this topic, some of the earliest guitar makers, such as juan de Carrion, from 1600, and manuel munoa 1779-1815 then more recently jose ramirez 1st...
I didn't really want to buy an acoustic with a cutaway - certainly it was on the "I don't want one of those" list when I was looking for my "upgrade". In my...
Yes you can can't you. OK smart-axx - I should have been more specific - the Golden era of American made/developed steel string instruments. Andrew Perry ...
Hi, glad you are happy with your Crafter. I would tend to view a guitar such as this as primarily an electric guitar, rather than one built for acoustic...
Oddly enough I don't have an amp, and have never used it with one. It gets its primary performance "blast" every 4th Sunday in our little church, but it fills...
I see. May I ask - why did you spend £400 on a guitar in which there is probably £200 to £300 in electronics ? Andrew Perry Singer-songwriter, guitarist,...
