Thanks Nancy! I'm getting more mileage out of this new guitar than ever before I think. Turns out, I love acoustic blues guitar. Just need to learn to play some acoustic blues now haha. Good to see you Nancy and thanks again.

I agree about the ceramic slides Richard. I've found out that this guitar definitely prefers my ceramic or my lead crystal heavy wall glass slide. Like butter over hot toast and honey in your tea. Tasty!

Richard, your comment about my timing and procession is likely one of the nicest things anyone has said to me regarding my guitar playing to date. You've certainly made me smile a lot with that so a huge thank you. Believe me though, if I had a nickname it would perhaps BE Mr Impatient. Just ask Dani lol. Glad that you like the guitar too.

Thanks again and best regards to you.

I’m pretty much hooked on ceramic slides in my very short sliding career.  Your procession and timing are something I admire! I’m so impatient! Guitar looks as good as it sounds!

I constantly look as though I can't quite believe things are real Andries haha. My face must have gotten stuck like that when the wind changed ;)

It is taking some getting used to. I'm still working my way through my slide collection to see what the guitar and strings prefer when combined with my playing style/habits. I've definitely found out that chrome sounds awful. So yuck! I'll get used to the playing preferences of the guitar but wow I'm enjoying getting to know her! Thanks again my friend.

Thanks Dave. Yes I love the guitar and the slide. Is "love" too strong a word for an inanimate object? Not in this instance! Love, love, love, as The Beatles once sang.
