    My music has died

    in Guitar Open Talk

    Posted

    Mandy, thank you for entrusting this Guitar Family with your so intimate feelings of your loss. It is a privilege for us to receive. Yesterday I saw my Brother who is dying from prostrate cancer as well as a lung disease. Everything is a little teary today. I am also retired clergy of over 43 years of ministry. experience does not overcome feelings sometimes. Know you are not alone for you are lifted by this guitar Family. Some day you will take a deep breath, pick up your guitar and the music will touch your soul and bless you.  I believe that is the gift of music. May the gift bless you today, tomorrow and all years to come.  When you need us we are here!

    Steve, you have always shown us your Guitar Family the utmost in caring. Knowing all the work you put into a Gathering We understand how difficult it must be to cancel this year. You made the right decision and as always we support you. We do not know what the world will be like in the near future. We do know you will inspire and encourage OUR musical journeys. Thank you.

    Live Lesson: February 11th - Triads (Part 1/3) - Major Triads

    in Weekly Live Lessons & Guitar Workouts

    Posted

    Thanks Steve for this lesson. I have an idea about using chord structures like this for a while so I could go further up the neck but have not been able to form a structured process to work on the idea. You gave me what I needed! One question though: you mentioned a guitarist would not usually need to know triads on 6 through 4th strings, Why? maybe staying away from Bass guitar?  thanks AGAIN.   I have used neck diagrams with all notes to picture these triads in the past. it has help see them

    Thanks Friends for all the support. Eracer the London store is very good one. I have about five stores within 1 hour of me and this is one of the better ones for space, choice and salespeople. Oldjock that is exactly what I want to do. I saw Gordon over a year ago, and have one of his songbooks that I can put to my learning and growing use. Lightfoot has been one of my favorites for many, many decades along  few other Folkies. Thanks again for this Community

    Hey, I was just looking at one of these coming up at an auction.if it has red nippon label and a trust rod it is after 1968, with classical guitar style body and ladder bracing. the lamination for body was actual tone woods , not plywood. Found a history on google. There are a couple videos of people playing them sound quite bright.

    THANKS  to all for your congrats and support. Diane, I had not seen those vids. I check  the other suggested resources. Maybe what I play at the Gathering next year. Oh, Neil I can see myself at 105 yrs old in my wheel chair hauling a big old Gretsch onto my lap to tell the Youngster about really good music. Only to fall a sleep with head resting on the guitar while dreaming that I am duane eddy. thanks for the smile!!!

    Not at the Guitar Gathering? What are you doing (while wishing you were there)?

    thanks,  closing my office with all my musical stuff  ( like 3 guitars and 2 amps,  and a ton books,etc ) bringing together with all I have at home ( much ,much more ) is daunting. Sometimes to continue our musical journey is setting up proper practice places inspiring us to grow. If I want to go back to Nashville in 2019  ( as I do)  bringing order to my present chaos is needed to help me get there next year, and to continue my journey with Steve and our musical family.
