LOL!!

Nah, can't be arsed with fighting nowadays - getting too old for handbags at twenty paces. And instrument choice is precisely that - a choice for each individual to make according to his/her ears and hands - certainly nothing to start scrapping over.

The Taylor was, in fact, rather nice to play (although the string-spacing was different to what I'm used to and caught me out a couple of times). Not quite the sound to satisfy my ears, but I'm happy to concede to those who like the 'Taylor Sound'. I'll stick with Lowden and Martin though.

And the only carbon-fibre in my future might be a Hoffee case for the Lowden, if I can scrape up the shekels!

And you'll be surprised how fast the years will pass, Musket me lad! :-)

It was indeed a nice evening. Even the buzzing of the bar-flies didn't detract too much from the ambience, looking forward to the next one (although it will be at least mid-July befor I make it again. Have good uns in the meantime.
