No hiatus is allowed except for major surgery! If you've severed an artery or had an arm amputated: fair enough, we'll cut you some slack, but a HOLIDAY??? Unacceptable

Certainly looks ‘striking’ 😀
I can’t imagine the frustration when the soundboard doesn’t meet expectations - but look forward to seeing what the cedar looks/sounds like.
I’m prepared to let the looks grow on me…

I wouldn’t complain if it ended up in my house… 😀

Thank you to all who have watched... I am currently the 7th most watched video. Ok, it's only out of 13, but that's fine

Mel told me he thought I was being dramatic and making a political point about how dysfunctional the current politic system is by ending this way. Truth is I just missed the 5th fret for the first chord and so tried to pretend I was 'sliding up' for the rest. Can't be arsed/haven't got time to be re-recording it, though, and it also fits in to the intention of 'not just the professionals'

This all sounds very complicated, Alan J. It’ll be interesting to hear your views as to whether or not the maple nullifies the rosewood. Looks very striking though - no doubt I’ll buy a ticket 😀

Fluffed the outro a bit… and no idea if I was singing in tune. And there was a sodding audience - but I think I kept me tongue in.
Not seen/heard the video so who knows? 😀

I actually knew the passage, just not by Chapter and Verse. How much is a denari in euro? A silver Denarius would be worth about 2.5 Euro at the time the story was told... the Roman Empire did, of course, devalue it over time - to such an extent that, by the end of the roman empire, it was worth about 10 cents

I sold it cheap to a young guy, he had it up for sale for over double what he paid me for it within a few days. Matthew 20. 1-16 As long as I'm content with what I was offered, what happens afterwards is no concern of mine. I've got a whole sermon, well, two, on this if anyone's got 15 minutes

Fair play for keeping 'em, scorpiodog! My (many, many) false dawns get deleted - I don't have a big enough hard drive This whole thread isn't helping me prepare for Thursday's trip to Brokenhead to record for the www.righttofoodguitarsessions.com. On video. Audio is bad enough, but having to remember to not stick my tongue out will be a challenge that I may find insurmountable...
