Re: Trogly Phone Call with Steve Howe

That was so interesting. Love Steve Howe. He's a most humble GOAT founding progressive guitarists. I'm not even sure I'd put John McLaughlin in an "as interesting" an early prog player category. [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=51oPKLSuyQY&t=20s/url] Steve and Les [url]https://www....

Re: Having problems with my nut

I bet its the nut slot. That headstock makes the B and E string move out the nut at a bigger angle than many headstocks. I wonder if the slot needs to be widened at the backside of the nut, or if the slot floor isnt angled down enough to the back, as TMC mentioned. I picked up a cheap set of nut slo...

Re: Cowboy Carter

I found a few songs I really liked, sampling official vids. One was of more Spanish style. Good for her to try and mash in a new direction. Good to have more change/mashing in pop in general, I guess. On another note, I've been playing with a harmonica guy and my bass friend in practices once a week...

Re: 3 World Class Guitarists.....Goin' Down

Especially the beginning, its like 3 old dogs circling in a street reading for a fight. And Charlie loves watching it. By the end they realize they're all from the same litter. I get the impression that Jeff says something quickly into Mick's ear at the very end, that is insulting. And Mick has to l...

Re: Car Transport - Sabas *Updated*

I bought a used car that needed to be driven to the dealership site near me. Someone drove it for a three hours to get to my area...I imagine they drove something else back , or had a shadow car with second driver to return in.
I hope you find customers in need Sabas. Best wishes to you.
