Haha.

...and then put this through some light (we can argue about the definition of light) distortion to get a good "crunch, crunch" sound.
Pun intended...
I used a pistachio shell as a pick today. I'm not very fast on the guitar but do get an increase in speed with the shell.

The tip of the finger fits snugly into its hollow shape, and works better held between thumb and middle-finger, freeing up the index finger for some string gymnastics.

My Godin L.R Baggs

That thing has seen better days. I should have given it a good wipe before I shot it.

The L.R. Baggs was the precursor to the acoustcaster. Notable differences. Requires two 9 volt batters. Thinner neck and body. Uses times instead of reads which vibrate sympathetically when notes are played and even if they are muted. It was chime magic sounded more like a fender rhodes with the felt removed.

I tried on multiple occassions to affix a Roland GK system on to it with varying degrees of success. It actually performed better than the Godin Multiac SA I have (which needs to go into the dumpster
Definagely some worn out frets and I haven't changed the strings in 15 years.

I'm feeling hot today but have only spent about 30 minutes. I think I'm going to aim for 6 hours.

I played my mexican made classical guitar that I picked up from a pawn shop years ago. No brand i can recognize but I believe its from the Paracho region. It has a great voice fro the Willie Nelson tunes.

I love the tone of a quality nylon string guitar but I hate the feel of traditional classical guitars. Back in the 80's I got a Ramirez at an estate sale. My first decade of playing guitars (mid 70's thro mid 80's) were all electric. Even my Ovation 12 string was easier to play than a nylon string.

Fast forward to the 2000's I got a Godin Multiac ACM SA. That thing had a wide thin neck with low action that was a dream to play. Now I'm looking at Cordoba Fusions even though I don't have the money.

It's another D'angelico Tammany Day Spent about a half hour working on my Travis picking. Later it's going to be Tele time.

ESP Horizon nt II. Recorded a longer intro on a song. How long did it take? I don’t know. Recorded in sections and did erased the takes I wasn’t satisfied with and not tight enough. I’m a perfektionist and want to hold the same standard as a pro producer would when recording a commercial successful band.
