le reno amps - no contest i'm afraid.

others are great and novel when they swap their electrics for acoustics (see blastcap and future hendrix) but for straight-forward good acoustic songs with frankly amazing harmonies...

i'm chuffed and a little bit embarrassed at the amount of simpson posts though. i'm obviously paying you too much. :O

ah those nurses - where will they go now?

in that case

Love Ballad For A Robot - Hookers Green

when you say "released" do you mean - on a cd in a shop or played at a gig?

on a cd in a shop would cut down the list dramatically. (hopes!)

burning lyrics is never a good idea. i wrote a FANTASTIC poem during a traumatic trip to a german christmas market only to have my then girlfriend burn it to a pile of ash that very evening. suffice to say, i can now no longer visit germany... extradition laws y see...

i was only 18 at the time, so the poem probably wasn't that good anyway. made a good fire at least!

new thread i think, entitled "where can I get a rich friend like the rest of you?"

sickening...

CS01? Looks pretty neat!

All I need now is:

A delay box

6 hands

and I'm officially prog folk!

Erm, in a word, yes.

Althouh you may have given me an idea, throw the sweets at the people snoring during his set so they too can suffer with the rest of us.

Or just cover the floor with skittles so they can't escape. Hmm. Once again you've given me a great idea. Ta!

Strange you should say that Ian....

But no I hadn't thought of the piezo. It's a bugger I've glued it to the inside of my acoustic now isn't it? But if I can glue the guitar to the Casio.... hmm.....

I've been using the wee beauty for years - it makes some great noises when you put it through FX software!

And of course the demo is great....

If only I had an extra hand...

Ian's right about the use of H in Italian - howerver babblefish only recognises embouchare. It's definition?

to embouchare.

I thankew.

i actually got one from Argos for my girlfriend for exactly the same reason (she never did stick at it though).

I think it was only 75 (or maybe I spent 10 more for the built in pickup, which is surprisingly not shite, Ian simpson take note).

The thing that I was surprised the most about was the intonation, you have to go past the 12th fret before it starts to fuck up, not bad for a cheapo acoustic.

Maybe I was just lucky though?

Failing that, get a second hand one.

Noted! Been trying out recording the piezoed acoustic this morning and it's still fucking shite and the HISS!! You wouldn't believe it! (well, actually you probably would...)

You can buy acoustic pick ups off ebay for about 30 at the moment. Don't know how good they are though. I'll be checking out the Argos guitar though - thought Baz was joking earlier this week...

Think she'd want to swap for a Yamaha F-310? I'll remove the piezo first of course!
