: Hey TJW, how's it all going out there!?
: I was just kiddin a bit on the six-string thing -- that is about the limit of my guitar knowledge!
: I gotta tell ya though, I'm awful close to going out and buying myself one of them "stranged thangs" (Virgina talk) -- take some lessons and just play around.
: Especially the slide -- I can't explain it -- mid-life crisis? Brian Jones/Mick Taylor/Ron Wood wannabe? That goddam slide thing is making me crazy.
: Any suggestions?
:
The slide is hard as hell to learn and it hurts more than any other guitar in the world when the strings snap on you. I have the marks on my hands to prove the danger that lies in learning the slide. Good luck and be careful.
