Buggered with a Strap On?

Celtic Cyclonus · **Posted:** Thu Dec 10, 2009 2:05 pm

Hey guys, I know this should 'technically' be in the Acoustic section but theres 2 reasons why I didn't post there and thats cos there is one post down there per week and also the uniqueness of my acoustic.

The predicament is that I'm going busking tomorrow in the centre of Belfast and I own a Telecoustic Deluxe.

It's top heavy so I put a strap on it acoustic style with a lace wrapped around the headstock.

Will this harm my guitar? Bear in mind it's a bolt on neck and NOT a bowl back like the regular ones.
Also keep in mind Belfast is freezing this time of year.

Thanks guys!

First off CC , I understand you're dillema.

It shouldn't really make a difference.

CC,
I checked with a luthier buddy of mine and he said unless you are really throwing your guitar around you are good to go. Now my DQD(Dumb Question of the Day) what is buskin???LOL

Thanks for checkin that out for me bro.

Buskin is just playing in the street for the Christmas shoppers with my hat on the ground. My mate made 40 quid in 2 hours the other day so I'm gonna face the cold and try to get some extra Christmas dough.

At the same time writing new songs as I go. People wont notice cos as they walk past they only hear a few bars. :lol:

I was in about two weeks ago and asked for cheese and bacon on a white sub, they were out off cheese, bacon and white subs.
I just walked out without saying a word.

You could probably get them to do a half bottle milkshake, they'll do one out of any chocolate bar for you.
