    I can't really see the nut in that pic but that's too bad about the fire. :( I'd still be interested in seeing the "after" pic. I'd be so bummed if something like that happened.

    Can't see the nut because there isn't one... Graphite string guide just behind the zero fret. It's actually a piece of artists graphite with a thin brass plate on the leading edge.

    I did know that, that's why I asked ;)
    and I could have sworn you posted some guitar pics and music.


    well not guitar pic, but photos of you playing a guitar.
    just posting photos of the pics would be lame, unless there were really cool or something.

    Last one for tonight... Old photo again. The last time I saw this guitar I had just grabbed Erin's cage to get her out of the smoke. It was hanging on the wall over my desk and I watched it fall onto the desk fully engulfed in flames. After it was all over there was a hole in the floor where the desk was... All I ever found was a twisted trussrod in a pile of charcoal in the basement...(desk/floor/computer/some of this maybe kind of charcoal. Nothing recognizable.)

    The 9 string.

    No, I don't think I ever posted any pics of me playing, or guitar music. I don't have any recordings (good ones anyway) of any original guitar music, and soundcloud doesn't allow uploading of copywritten material. What Wiz is referring to is some cover material samples I sent through E-mail.

    Someone should start a thread where we post soundclouds or whatever.

    Quite a story, that must have been simply gut wrenching for you...
    Again, fucking beautiful work! A 9 string... how did she play?

    And what was the tuning? Please forgive my ignorance. I've never played something like that.

    Sort of a 12 string with the higher pitched strings not being doubled and the lower pitch strings being octave doubled. Tuning was DADGCD... I had built it for some songs I composed that sounded middle eastern and/or baroque...


    Some clown on soundcloud stole one of my band names so I've never started anything there.... Still have the MySpace pages.

    Can I link to MySpace?

    Check out Chrome Crow on MySpace... That's the name some guy stole for his Soundcloud.

    The other is Mystical Blue... (You may notice the same or similar avatar as my sig pic)

    Low quality demos actually but that's somewhat where my head is/was at the time. To hear something like Gallatian Nights in full HD will blast your mind wide open... It's stereo but I was able to pull off "front to back, up and down" spatial relationships. :2thumbsup:

    Checking out Chrome Crow as I type this. Kind of spacey. I like it. :afro:

    Yup.

    How do you embed video? I'll post a song if I can.

    That's what I was going for but I never figured it out. It can't be very hard.
