Subject: RE: BS: MCFAT comes out From: MC Fat Date: 06 May 04 - 06:02 AM The bid has been succesfull and I shall unleash the new instrument soon on the unprepared folk audience |
Subject: RE: BS: MCFAT comes out From: Dave Bryant Date: 06 May 04 - 08:04 AM Is this a real guitar or merely a hologram. Mind you this thing seems to be catching on - Leadfingers is playing a mandola body with a banjo neck these days - but then I suppose that's an improvement on his proper banjo. |
Subject: RE: BS: MCFAT comes out From: The DeanMeister Date: 06 May 04 - 10:36 AM I love Andy Irvine's secret weapon, the guitar-shaped bouzouki. Fantastic sounding instrument. I'll shut up now. |
Subject: RE: BS: MCFAT comes out From: JennyO Date: 06 May 04 - 11:54 PM James Fagan plays one of those guitar-shaped bouzoukis too. Very nice! |
Subject: RE: BS: MCFAT comes out From: Red and White Rabbit Date: 10 May 04 - 03:48 PM MCFAT is still waiting for said banjo - sorry guitar to arrive Holmfirth was saved the debut!! ( see MCFAT I didnt say anything that might embarrass you - not even that you spent half an hour in Music Roome trying out the five string banjos!!) |
Subject: RE: BS: MCFAT comes out From: GUEST Date: 11 May 04 - 10:51 AM Said tenor guitar arrived today and sounds a bit like a banjo but...it's a guitar jim but not as we know it. At least the banjo I picked up and tried to play was a Vega and retailed at £2,000 |
Subject: RE: BS: MCFAT comes out From: Red and White Rabbit Date: 11 May 04 - 02:32 PM you even admit it!! |

Subject: RE: BS: MCFAT comes out From: GUEST,MC Fat Date: 13 May 04 - 04:16 AM Will need to buy a tenor banjo chord book today for they is same chords for my new toy |
Subject: RE: BS: MCFAT comes out From: Geoff the Duck Date: 14 May 04 - 06:27 AM An excellent book for chords - various stringed instruments, not just tenor banjo - is one I mentioned in this thread BLICKY. It is a very useful reference as it has all the information within one cover, and wasn't overly expensive. Quack! GtD. |
Subject: RE: BS: MCFAT comes out From: Geoff the Duck Date: 14 May 04 - 06:35 AM Referring to your Tenor Guitar thread..... He played on his guitar and broke all the strings The people who heard him said "he should have wings" And people in Milnsbridge - they know about such things.... So that's why they strung up McDonald. Quack! GtD. |
Subject: RE: BS: MCFAT comes out From: Red and White Rabbit Date: 15 May 04 - 08:37 AM he's dedided to drop the tuning Geoff - but then I guess his tuning a guitar always was questionable - he claimed to use those drop tunings just because he had problems with normal ones! |
Subject: RE: BS: MCFAT comes out From: Geoff the Duck Date: 15 May 04 - 06:48 PM Just as long as he doesn't go for the Long Drop... Quack! Geoff. |
Subject: RE: BS: MCFAT comes out From: Geoff the Duck Date: 22 Jul 04 - 06:57 AM Anohter verse... He tried to escape on his three legged horse. He'd found it that morning, outside the racecourse. But the deaf, half-blind nag only understood morse... So there was no retreat for McDonald. |
Subject: RE: BS: MCFAT comes out From: GUEST,rd and white rabbit Date: 22 Jul 04 - 03:13 PM He feigned he was dying from a terrible flu From a cough a sore throat and bad sneezing too No work just the pub, what else was there to do Soon we'll mourn the passing of Mcdonald |
