Which is supposedly why we picked up a guitar, right?. Not to become connoisseurs of wood grain and true-bypass cicuits... but to make music.

I would enjoy an article like this, maybe a book, that deep dives the physics behind these tonal factors. Its all very interesting.

Imagine how much closer one could come to the truth with a transcendent mind... one that understands that "superstition ain't the way."

There's a Zen story about a student who got hung up on a line in the sutras that says "the day will come will even the rocks and stones will be enlightened." Why, this doesn't make physical sense... it's counterintuitive! How can rocks and stones become enlightened? He gets so worked up about it he can't meditate anymore. So he goes to his roshi and asks, "What does this mean, here, in the sutra?" And his master says, "What do you care how the rocks and stones become enlightened if you, yourself, are not?"

......If you are a bad player....

Thank you, Ceri!!! I'll check them out. Also, would you please tell me which books you wrote or contributed to? Those, Im sure, are the most valuable!

Well, Ceri, the facts are that few on these boards want to chat with me anyway because I speak incomprehendable nonsense. So, what's a little more gas on that fire, eh?

You are so polite. What is "codswallop" by the way?
