I vote for D. D stands for DUMB and I know that if I start a really dumb thread at Mudcat, pretty soon a bunch of idiots will want to add their $.02. |

16 Sep 00 - 07:51 PM (#298918) Subject: RE: Favorite guitar string From: GUEST,Trish Well I like playing in D: it suits my voice and my silly liitle fingers which can just about stretch the G that goes with it. I hate C mainly because I can't play F properly!! I can also pick a few tunes in D using the top E string trish |

16 Sep 00 - 08:49 PM (#298952) Subject: RE: Favorite guitar string From: GUEST,Fred A guy walked past a busker strumming away on his guitar. The guy noticed he had only one string on it and didn't use the frets at all. When he asked about this, the busker replied, "Everyone else keeps looking all over to find the right note. Now I've found it, and I'm just gonna keep on playing it!" |
