Realised that all the songs I really wanted to sing were NOT Trad Unacc songs , so bit the bullet and bought a battered Classical stle but with steel strings from the NAAFI manager at RAF Steamer Point in Aden for a WHOLE English pound ! Th Top was comming away from the tailpiece , but gaffa tape , then later Araldite sorted that out . Learnt the basics on it and sold it back in UK for a fiver !!
