Hi, Cor.

Welcome to PoE.

Nice to have another fellow guitarist join us. When your elbow is better, drop some songs onto YouTube. Hey, we could even form a virtual band!

Hi everyone,

Thanks for your warm welcomes.

I've been away for about a week, computer broke down and I had to get it fixed. Luckely it turned out to be a small thing.

BTW, great idea John. We'll see what we can do with that. Do you play a particular style or.... ?

Ok, som much for now, I'm going to see what things I have to see around here and give a reply whenever needed.

Sounds great John. So you play a lot with a open tuning. I never really took the trouble to get into that. You have to learn to play chords differently. However I do know a bit what is like. I used to play the banjo an violin and those instruments are tuned in quints and it's not just playing "upside-down" according to "normal" tuned guitar.

Would you mind if I record one of your songs and see if I can extend it a little?

I wouldn't mind at all, Cor. In fact, I'd be delighted!

Not just you John, me too. I just love figuring out arrangements and it's always been a challenge to me. I'll do some try-outs, convert them into .mp3 and if you could let me know where to send it to.
But please don't expect results tonight already ;)
