Subject: RE: Pacific NW Catter Gathers Part 2
Susan and Jen, I just checked out the previous troublesome boob threads to 'get' the boob jokes above.

All I can say (TREAD CREEP ALERT!) is that the looking-funny-or-conspicuous-with-the-guitar-being-a-"breast-rest"* problem is minor compared with boobs turning your amplifier up during a gig when you least expect it!
Some of my guitars are acoustic-electric with the controls on the side of the guitar (the side that's up, as I play). I'm not in the same cup league as Susan, Mrs. Duck, Liz the Squeak, and some others, but my boobs still have a bad habit of turning the volume controls when I'm not paying attention to the position of the instrument! I feel a bit of a boob (pun not entirely unintended) when I reach between me and the instrument to adjust the volume.
It occurred to me, though, that if they can turn the volume up, maybe I can train 'em to turn it down, too, eh? Wouldn't that be an interesting auxiliary talent--to be able to adjust my guitar amp volume without using my hands!?
