Yea, last Wednesday was a bit of a winner. It just sort of happened. It was interesting to hear Wally's plectrum, your (David's) finger style, and Mark's ...
Friday evening chat<br><br>I checked the chat room on Friday and I noticed that "banjoguiy2001" was in there also. (Sorry we didn't connect.) I am sure he...

Needless to say, I did not get in the bidding for the Guild x150 on eBay. In the last 10 minutes there were 6 bids taking it from $1300 to over $2500 !!!??? My...
Sure . . . as long as you also bring your tenor! You might learn a tune or two on it. <br><br>We just need to figure out who's coming, where they are going to...
I totally missed the ending on that one. I know now how deluded I was thinking I was going to have a chance at that one!You have to feel bad for the one who ...
David, Staff, Tom,<br><br>That is an amazing price for that guitar but it is similar to what was being asked last year ($2000, I think) by a vintage guitar...
Well I now don't feel so bad, The X-150 Guild plectrum that I bought last year was "only" 1800. But and BIG but, it still needed another 300. in neck work to ...

It's good to have TGR back eventually, apart from the horrible intrusive advertising that looks highly suspect and unethical to me, but all the Photo files are...
...for a tenor guitar, I mean! :) Seriously, I'd like to hear what members think is the ideal body size for the ultimate flattop tenor guitar. I'm not sure...
Actually, there has been some research done by luthier Joel Eckhaus indicating that beyond a certain size, the result is worse sound. The two best-sounding...
First of all- we're back! Yaayy! Not that anyone except the bean counters selling ads could imagine calling this an improvement. But you know that. I've been...
You ought to check out one of those Banduras from the Balkans. If you've ever heard one, they seem to have an extremely well-balanced tone. Their size appears...
Hi all, it is great to be back. About plectrum scale length: the top string on a plectrum (D)is a fifth (7 frets) lower than the A on a tenor. You really need...
