Do some finger stretches and maybe get a rubber or tennis ball to squeeze. That's what I use and it helps

Re: Sliced finger, can't play. (10 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Hey Cam, try some Neosporin + Pain. you can get it at walmart or CVS or any drug store. I do some wood carving and get a lot of cuts and nicks. Its a good antibotic and the mild pain reliever helps. Still might not be able to play for a couple of days but it helps with healing

Re: What did I get myself into? (23 replies, posted in My local band and me)
I agree with the others and say go for it Ken, the person in charge must think your stuff is good enough and that you can handle it. I've been playing in church every week and some other places for years and I still feel that way. Practice up your stuff so you have it down and go out there and giter done.

You know your a musician when you always carry a pick in your pocket, cause you never when you might come upon a guitar that needs picking.... And deadstring I have one of those change purses full of picks, but I don't put change in it, might mess up the picks...lol

Re: "F" chord is now outlawed (148 replies, posted in Acoustic)
The trick to playing the F chord is in the wrist. You need to drop your wrist to make your fingers more level with the fretboard. When you play, notice the position of your wrist, if your wrist is closer to you it makes harder to play certain chords. If you drop it so that your wrist is below the fretboard it makes it easier. Hope this helps, it works for me

Re: If I only knew then (7 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
I had an old gretch arch top acoustic that belonged to my Dad. Not sure of the year but i'm in my 50's and I remember it as a child and dad had it for some time before that, my guess it was from the 40's or early 50'. I remember that the neck was warped and I don't think it had a rod it to adjust it. It could still be played. I wasn't interrested in playing at the time and I kind of forgot about the guitar. One day some years later I was looking around in the attic and found the case, when I opened it the guitar had just came apart. Looked like it just exploded. Seems my Mom didn't know that the attic is not a good place to store a guitar. The sad part of it is that some years later after my mom had passed, I went up into the attic but did not find the guitar. Guess Mom chucked it out.

Re: Simon and Patrick Guitars (11 replies, posted in Acoustic)
I have a S&P that I found in the trash. I checked on it through their web site and found out it sold for around $400 US. It is a great guitar and has a great sound and great action. I love it. Might be worth checking into

Re: Hi (13 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Hey Deadstring..I have the same problem from time to time, as I play in church also.What I've found is that most of the time no one knows that you've messed up but you..so just pick up at the next chord and keep on strumming, plus keep the sheet music in front of you even if you think you got the song down helps when you play

Re: Bridge pins (6 replies, posted in Guitars and accessories)
I've never used them but I did some research on different pins. Brass and other pins will change the tone and over all sound of the guitar. I read that brass is the best with the most notable sound and tone change. I guess it would be best to buy them at a store that you could return them if you don't like the tone change.

Re: Strings acoustic guitar (20 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
I used ernie ball regular slinky 10ga. on my Strat and S&P acoustic. I like the feel and they last a good while before I need to change them. And they are fairly cheap in the U.S. I get them at guitar center for less than 5 bucks, and cheaper if you buy more that 1 set.
