Good Advice,Ranger

I love the sound of the Taylors also,and their electronics are great.I refuse to fight brand wars, it comes down to personal preferance.

I don't own a Taylor but I probably will soon, I have a HD-28 and a Yairi ,both having their own sound. I really like the taylors on fingerpickin songs.Most of the Taylors I have played have been impressive.

Good Luck Wayne

Thanks SouthPaw,

Thats what I've been hearing alot, that there are better mics out there at an affordable price,I am going to give one a try.Do you have to be as up close and in the mic as much as you do with the SM 58.

One thing I dont like about the SM58 ,if your lips aren't in contact with it you lose alot, sometimes just by turning slightly to acknowledge someone or maybe just swaying to the music.

Thanks again, Wayne

I have to agree the polywebs sound better than the nanoweb, Ive been using them on my Yairi and Takamine for 7 years with no breakage problems.

I think ZappaDjango ,nailed a great list , I'll bet a lot of folks who rocked out to the band Heart, featuring the Wilson sisters didn't even realize it was a gal playing she did great electric and acoustic stuff.Also an evening listening to Bonnie Raitt doing some jamming is great.

Yes Ken has a right to his opinion,maybe we can turn him on to some female musicians and sway him.

Hey Roger,  I guess I am a bonehead it was just a bad speaker connection.I  was making things to complicated. The Audio turned out pretty good but I need to do some more fine tuning before I show the world my work,

Thanks Again , Wayne

Hello, when I started fingerpicking I started with a D chord and played it over and over and didn't worry about changing chords,just thumb,1-2-3 fingers or thumb ,2-3  patterns it doesnt take that long and you will be comfortable with a G C D progression.

Just don't get locked into just fingerpickin like I did,keep strumming also or it is hard to get out of the habit of fingerpickin everything.If you get a good folk pattern down,branch out into some travis pickin also.You can do it.

I usually alternate the top 2 strings of a chord with my thumb,it is easier than it appears,if you have your chord changes down,you will be fingerpickin within a week.

I also have some Dunlop thumb picks i guess I just don't like that tight of a fit that the large gives me.I'm kinda fussy about the fit of my thumb.I usually go without fingerpicks tho I prefer the sound of flesh I guess.Thanks

Doc, I also like "Whiter Shade Of Pale" but it kinda makes sense for the era,with the substance abuse going on. What the Heck I still Perform it anyways.

Hey James & Topdown ,thanks for the cool sights,now I have a few old standards to work on.

Thanks Wayne

I hate 80's music, but it makes me appreciate the late 60's & 70's more.
