I'm all smilie faced, for two reasons: I've already met wonderful folks as a new member, and it just might be possible that I'm able to help some new friends in their satisfaction and enjoyment of their music. I can only imagine that big sound coming from your twelve string Travis! And, now there ar...

Travis/John: Thanks for your remarks. Bipicks have huge sound on Dobro, and might mean a new term for Banjo: Sledge-Hammer. With Lap/Hawaiian amp work, flat compression rakes, straight up picks, or upward plucks produce different voices due to the PART of the pick TIP that leaves the string. That ch...

My thanks to SGF and C. Dixon for the Fender V/T Pedal wiring information. I've got one, and a '58 Q8 Fender Stringmaster with dual pickups (humbucker-type?) to consider. My last rebuild at 250K never seemed right. I need to go to 500K pots if I understand the information correctly. Could a member p...

HowardR: Saw your photo post concerning the Ebay 'Sting'-Master. I had no idea I was e-mailing my finger pick 'pic' to a distinguished person such as yourself, and I'm grateful that a man in your position has offered to help me post. Thank you in advance for your time sir, and, you'll find the 87 me...

HowardR, thank you in advance for your assistance. I'm charging up the digital! As a new member, I want to say that it is great to feel so welcome. 2/13 edit: I need to charge my brain - Can't get a 137 meg JPEG to e-mail to you. IPS protocol problem. How did I get this far in life without these ski...

Thanks Travis. I'll post 'Pick' pic's as soon as I perfect the photo procedure (Never have done it, eh)! I have wondered where someone with skill could take this idea. I can do simple rakes and arpeggios, but fail at flamenco-type-flourishs. I did send a set of three to a local hero, Bob Brozman, wh...

I would like to add to the bent/straight discussion, that I've 'invented' a two-way finger pick: they work while closing and opening your fingers. With their tips bent inward and soldered together, they never get caught between the strings. What's interesting though is that they have a different voi...
