Such good picking, Doc. Nice guitar too.

Ever thought of experimenting with "open tunings"?
Here's something from my favourite player from the 60s. John Fahey.
Ignore the haircut if you can... it was recorded in the 70s ;o)
.

[SparklyKid]

Tried open tunings, quite good fun.

[SparklyKid]

It is an old guitar, Yahama FG 180.

Bought from a second hand shop years ago. Love John Fahey as well.

[Zacs-Master]

Oooh, I have one of those, sparkles!
It needs new strings.....any recommendations?

[The Builder]

My brother plays an old Yamaha FG. Lovely sound.

I have waited for years to meet someone who has even heard of John Fahey. :o))))))))))))))

Lovely! I was waiting for you to break into song! Got any with you singing?

[Old_Geezer]

I have both an acoustic and an electric guitar, but each time I try to learn I conclude that I need to double my finger length and make all the joints double-jointed. Not to mention harden the tips and trim the nails. Maybe I'll have another go when present interests fade.

[SparklyKid]

Sorry can't sing,lol. Funny how the end of your fingers harden.

I get upset if I break a nail.

[naomi24]

Oh, you can't sing. That's a shame. I would offer to help - but you wouldn't like it - and neither would anyone else. :o)

I’m just re-hardening my finger tips, sparkles. Thanks for the link to the strings.
