I was knocking on the door for half an hour and there was so much noise that I cold not be heard, so I came home.

Happy anniversary to whoever and I hope you all had a great time.

If you look two posts before yours, Just Tel has a link to an explanation.

BTW Welcome to Chordie, Rocky.

Dino, you cannot believe all that is put in advertisments, if so I would have the physique and looks of Adonis and the strength of Hercules instead of being the wrinkled old prune that I see in the mirror .

First and most importantly, the truss rod adjustment on the neck is to ensure that the fretboard is straight and true ONLY. It is not for trying to make it easier to play or eliminating buzzes. So the first thing to do is to look along the fret board, if there is any bow or hollow  then adjust it to be straight. (I am gussing that you may have already done this).

If the buzzing disappears with the capo on the 1st fret it indicates that the first fret is a little too high and needs crowning but this is not really a job to take on if you have no experience, a luthier will quickly tell you if it is needed and  give you an estimate on the cost.

I would go into the local music stores and try the ones that were in my price range. The name on it means nothing as one for you will just feel and sound absolutely right.

Thanks for the recording Jeff,

Because of the way it shows I was rushing the chord changes on those last two lines. (Tenho a cabeça de burro)

The quality of the recording was absolutely fine, by the way, but you would have to compress it to send the full song and a compressed recording is plenty good enough for playback on a PC's sound system. Thank you again.

Roger

It is far, far better being able to hear a song than to just play it from the lyrics and chords. From reading, I did not realise it was a 12 bar in E but it was obvious as soon as I started listening to it.

It makes a big difference being able to hear how a song is intended to be performed.

Thank you and well done.

Rog

This one plays well Jeff. However I am at a loss to understand what a "tiafun" is .

Rog

Hi Jeff,

Talking to the TV is a bit like talking to the idiots that do something stupid when we are driving. It gives a lot of satifaction but is really rather pointless . I do like the idea behind the song.

As usual I played it through but I struggled a little with the timing in the last two lines of the verses so I would like to hear you singing it, if you are able to get a recording done.

Roger

Woweeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! So pleased it has eventually returned.

Rog

Sounds like it was just excitement on her part at the prospect of going out with her dad after a long absence.

Welcome to Chordie Kev,

It is unusual to have seen and heard someone before welcoming them to the site. I hope you will be a regular contributor.
