I would be cheaper to simply purchase a steel.

Son, we live in a world with walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with steel guitars. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Lt. Weinberg?

Just one more reverb pedal and it will be perfect.......
I have stuff.
I try to make music with it.
Sometimes it works.
Sometimes it doesn't.
But I keep on trying.

It could be as much fun as dancing on bubble wrap.
A banjo, like a pet monkey, seems like a good idea at first.

I'm fairly tall but I don't think my legs are long enough to stomp some of them.

I looked closely but did not see a black one, no way this will sound like a steel.

When a Roadie goes to Hell, his punishment is to constantly be changing all 75 9V batteries... for Eternity.

Herb, a guy who was roadie-ing for a famous German band told me, that they threw away all those (expensive) 9V batteries, and it was lots, just after one gig

Is it just me or do others feel this way. I shudder when I see a six string guitar with effects boxes, I like the guitar players that just play through an amp, to me all those effects just mess up the sound.
