Hey boxbang, I kinda assumed you were going to have to grab me by the ear like John Cleese, correct it for me and then make me write it out in red paint a hundred times all over the walls of the Forum!

Cheers - C

PuhKINK--the sound a small unwound string makes when moving around in an improperly filed nut slot.

Pizza Delivery!--what you hear when there is a professional trombone player at your door.

Fingerbored - to have wearied of endless aimless shredding.

Bar chords - no point doing fancy fingerpicking for a drunken audience.

Palm muting - kept awake at night by the noise of wind in the trees? Chop 'em down.

Machine head - someone who obsesses over tuner upgrades.

Capo - worn on the heado.

Cheers - C

Stratophelia: When playing a Strat is almost as good as sex. Telephelia: same thing with a Tele.

I'm not going near Jazz Master...

Capocetic: When, after applying a device to shorten the string length of your Strat, all of a sudden the song is in the singer's key and the whole band is in a groove.

"Hey, I just put this little plastic doohickey on the fifth fret and now all of a sudden everything is capocetic!"

(Bump: we ain't done with this thread yet, oh no!)

Someone I know is a geologist. He's off on a field trip to the Far East and is taking his Fender with him for relaxation. This is a clear example of geological Stratification.

Cheers - C

Origin Snobbery--The phenomenon of a person detesting, rejecting or looking down on an instrument based purely on where the instrument was made.
Example: "Hey, that's a good looking Stratocas...oh, wait, it's made in Mexico, it's a piece of crap."

Related words:
Vintage Snobbery--same response as above, based on the date or era the instrument was made.
