I know my playing is a bit pitchy, but at least my tone sucks

Hey Peter - nice playing and nice tone to boot. Is it just me, an optical illusion, or whatever, but isn't your guitar rocking from side to side an awful lot? Looks like a good 1/4" to the right when you hit the LNR and a good 1/4" to the left with the LKL. Could be the angles in the video make it look like more than it really is.

Tilted

Gary, I am about one foot too tall for this guitar so I have to tilt it forward quite a bit. That could be the reason why it is moving. And it is a light guitar.

Peter, I think this is great stuff. You coax a warm nice tone out of the Mullen..does it take much coaxing? Mullen steels are fast becoming a favorite with me.

I envy you, the way you are able to bend your picking thumb backwards. I think this gives a better attack position and better control.

Keep the great sounds coming my friend!
