Re: As long as we're on the topic of frets... (9 replies, posted in Guitars and accessories)
Zurfl, if you have reduced your strings to 10's you will have reduced the string tension and the neck is likely to have arched back slightly. Look along it (or preferably use a long straight edge) to check it is true. My guess is that slight back arch is the problem and a slight release of the truss rod tension will do the trick.
The other thing is there may be a spur on the outside edge of the fret which need filing off.
I have had this happen a time or two myself.

Re: Possible site infection (16 replies, posted in About Chordie)
What many newbies do not seem to realize that if there were problems with Chordie there would be thousands of Members asking what is wrong. If the issue is only with one or two Members then it has to be at their end and not with Chordie. I have never had a problem with adverts and I have probably been using Chordie longer than any current user (about 16 years), however. I clear my cookies on a regular basis and have used an adblocker for a long, long time.

Topic: New Student (12 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
I had a new student start yesterday, probably the cleverest one I have ever had. A retired rocket scientist with a masters degree in mathematics. So, after teaching him the 'G' and 'D7' chords and finishing with playing 'Tom Dooley' (OK it was very slow and hesitant with gaps at chord changes but we got there) he turned to me, with sweat running down his brow, and said:
"That was the hardest hour I have ever had in my whole life............. It was also the most enjoyable".
I can live with that.

Oh Bill. I wish I had a magic wand to wave and send you some better fortune. I have heard, of but not had any dealings with, scabies so I looked up this article and apparently it is very common. Some helpful advice mentioned in it:

Re: Eros guitars (6 replies, posted in Guitars and accessories)
That is an interesting site Doug. I was able to find out about my Italian made Melody 1200 12 string who also made guitars for EKO.
Graham can you post a picture as I am very curious as to whether there are any similarities to my 12er?

Re: The time is right! (27 replies, posted in Guitars and accessories)
Great to hear from you Trevor and welcome to the forum.
Whilst I have never owned a Gibson I believe with any guitar, no matter what the make, you must hold her and play her and you will know whether she is right for you.
Sorry to hear about your diagnosis but I will reiterate what others have said to be positive (which you appear to be anyway) because we never know what is round the corner and I know several people who have proved their doctors diagnosis wrong.

Hi Richard, nice to meet you. I am a bit up to the neck in it at present but I will look at your music later. (I might even listen too ).
Your earlier comment has intrigued me; does standing on your head all the time mean that you have to do a handstand when you wish to use the loo?
Enjoy Chordie,

If you click on 'MY SONGBOOK' in the blue header band at the top of the page beside the name of your current songbook is a blue box that says 'Add Book'. Click on this and you have a new empty songbook that you can name and use.
