Lot of cool stuff from NAMM this year. The new Strandberg N2.6T tremolo models look great, The badass Jackson anime guitar was cool AF, digging the re-release Alexi LTDs (not sure worth $2K for an LTD but still cooL) and the 50th anniversary Schector stuff is cool too. The walnut Tama Starclassic is HNNNNGGGGG

Got my acoustic back from the shop and it sounds amazing. Apparently it was dried out and they put it in a humidifier for a week. I bought a humidifier and a humidity gauge.

20+ years of playing and never took humidity srs until now.
Don't put that on me Ricky Bobby, don't you ever put that on me.

Damn, no way I could wait a year, it must be pretty special.

I just learned about Musicians Friend stupid deal of the day, There's an acoustic I'm considering that's around $700 used. Some guy on the interwbz got one on stupid deals for $300, so I'm trying to remember to check that daily.

Debating on getting a Soldano Astro20, loved Ola's review on it, but haven't heard in person, anyone have one? Thoughts?

What a mistake this was, thing is shredding my rock hard fingertips.

In negotiations for a Taylor American Dream acoustic/electric, if I get this I'll have to cull some, I don't have room for 4 guitars.

Music theory question; somewhat off topic.

I've been learning fiddle/violin for a little over a year. My buddy who plays the banjo has been practicing this song in A minor (cluck old hen.)

If I wanted to learn some backup for this would the primary chords be A, D and E or is some understanding of my theory wrong.

If it matters I'm nowhere near being able to play triples and I'm looking at mainly doublestops (2 strings.).

Thanks misc

Edit: I can also strum some basic chords on acoustic guitar of anyone has any advice in that area
