Dear Mr Lucius D. Binch-Noir IV,

Your query has many complex and interrelated aspects such as capos, sliders, steel radials, Pakystann, jook joints, horns and catfish.

Because I like to give a considered and useful opinion, I shall consider your question very carefully tonight while I try my Dow's Vintage Port on my computing apparatus. I hope to be back to you very shortly with an answer.

In the meantime do be very careful with your straight razor. Especially if newly stropped, this is capable of causing a nasty nick.

Yours sincerely,

Dr. Guitar
