I just had a humbling experience. A local celebrity just came into my office and saw my guitars and said "hey, you're a player". And he saw this odd little guitar in the corner and asked about it.
1st off I said, "well er no", I am not actually a player, more of a "practicer". But I told him to pick her up and give her a go. And of course, this guitar... which has been with me since I was 17 and has crazy high action, buzzys like crazy when I play her because I can't keep consistent finger pressure on her and has the bridge lifting - sounds beautiful when he picks her up.
Off course I had to lay down a compliment, and all he said was "time in".
His name is Brent Mason and he is a regular on the circuit around here. Below is a clip of him playing on stage. He's a bit of a story teller. All good fun.
This year the diet is definitely gonna stick!
