  1. WOW and what @Gary Nelson said. I bet they can HEAR Ya Now. Love that Henriksen Amp. Congratulations on the upcoming retirement too. Gene C
  2. Any day Now...
  3. Hey Gary, I just found this thread the other day, looks like a beautiful addition to your lineup of super desirable guitars, CONGRATULATIONS ! Like @Mike Hoodenpyle and @Steve Krenz says I bet it plays like a dream. I'm with @jasn standing in line to get a chance to play it or at least hear it this fall at the retreat. I like the iteration of "neck of an electric" , could be an acoustic guitar slogan. BTW, I saw where Sweetwater has a Taylor case for $299 with free shipping if you are looking. That could extend your NGD a just little further. I think the bridge thing is a scam, I wouldn't fall for that one. Gene C - London Ky
  4. The link is what I meant to paste. GC https://youtu.be/6pL846H2Sl0
  5. I have been a fan of the Ventures and the Safaris since the late sixties. Green Onion, Walk don't Run and of course WIPEOUT for me is early Rock and Roll. I found the Wiki- article on Cadence very interesting. Thanks for posting the link. Have a look at Marcelo Berestovoy's video to learn the 8 right hand moves for this basic strum. This will make the nails of the right hand get smoother quick. I love this music that showcases the acoustic guitar.
  6. Student Performances and a Versitar demo by Sir George, Thanks ! Gene C
  7. I certainly enjoyed my time at the Fingerstyle Retreat, Many thanks to all of the staff that put it together again for all us.
  8. Hello there Gary, It's like a $40 motorcycle helmet protecting one's bean-head skull. I think it's worth going the extra measures to protect or mitigate damages to the contents. I remember this case from the retreat and it was something Steve K said he flew with without hesitation. I think Steve K AND Diane B could describe helpful hints for traveling with instruments during a live lesson. I like it, the Bourgeois looks secure and cozy. I'd want to try one of these and possibly a GEIB case later. Gene C
  9. Thanks for the ongoing posts Diane, the pictures of the wonderful venue are great. The Faculty is impressive and I am sure the classes are intense, immersive, and informative. Lots of I's for Pat and Vanna's same letter puzzle. Seems these retreats always end too quickly, Enjoy yourself!
  10. 🎶 🎶 Happy

    Birthday🎶 🎶 Pat !

  11. So that's 11 Acoustic performances in one night, That's GREAT Diane, say Hi to Dave.
  12. Thanks Diane, I'll have to watch it when the weather snows us in again. Music speaks when words fail to come. Enjoy the day, GC
  13. There are some other Youtube videos with Pete Hutlinger, I find them time well spent. This one is with Steve at Gruhns discussing James Taylor fingerstyle technique. Hope you enjoy it, GeneC London KY
  14. THANKS @DianeB and @Nancy Lawing for bringing guitarist Maddie Rice to my attention, I made a concerted effort to find her in the band that I otherwise would have missed without this string. She has been in 2 SNL shows that I've seen since I read this. As Nancy pointed out you could see she has the fingers for it and I hope they will bring her out front more to feature some of her playing. Kinda like they did with GE Smith occasionally. Have a great week, stay well. Gene C
