...it's me! I've been plunking on this Sho-Bud for many years and thought I played pretty well. But now after listening to all the wonderful players of today, I'll never get that Nashville thud! ...now I understand why the wife closes the door and the dogs howel when I fire this thing up,
..."it's not the guitar, it's me"! |

That's the sound from being dropped by all the Nashville "country" record labels for sounding "too country", or not being young and cute enough.[This message was edited by Jim Phelps on 24 January 2006 at 09:24 AM.] |

I'm afraid that if "thud" is the sound that you aspire to, it might be some time before the dog's opinion comes around....  |

A guy once told me he went through 3 wives learning to play the fiddle.
My dog lays right down beside me when I play the steel. Of course my wife and daughter are gone shopping....hey....wait....
...how much is this steel practicing really costing me?!!

| My wife once had a canary that would do it's best to drown me out when I was praticing the steel.I thought it was cool.Funny thing though, it seldom sang much when I played regular 6 string.Don't know if it liked the steel and just wanted to join the fun,or wanted me to turn it off and find something else to do.
