For those of us who have not been outed recently

Thanks, but I prefer quality guitar players, not the wannabes who post here.


You assume we all, "wanna' be". I don't, I hate it when I have to take
a geetar out of the house, Hate it when I know anyone is listening, I
do it for me, period.. It's my hobby, no need to "play out"... I am
having fun with the math of music, setting up guitars, tweaking. Just
last week I made a custom bone nut for my special electric, started
from a block, cut and shaped it myself, sounds great. Now I am just
finishing up the setup back to 11s from the ultralight strings I had
on it. It's been keeping me busy. I know the guys solo was lame, but
the guitar is still weird. I don't really care as long as everyone is
having fun



There's no shortage of accomplished guitar players worth the listen, no
matter what music genre you like. I'm not a guitar customizing hobbyist
or luthier, but I surely appreciate the work of craftsmen and women. I
noodle around on my acoustic guitar once in a while, but that's just fun
for me. I wouldn't subject anyone to my playing, unless they were deep
into pain.

The DIY channel has had multi-part specials on guitar, lute, banjo,
violin and mandolin builders. Terrific craftsmen who produce
sweet-sounding instruments.

I thought you were going to be building or repairing some boats. I'd
rather read about that here, and see some photos, too.
