No no, I'm still here. Welcome back Kiks! Was just wondering the other day if you'd be back. No challenges, some good discussions, some trolls, as we say here, same sh*t different day. A lot of good stuff on the swap shop to catch up on.

El Kiko-- As a luthier and a flamenco guitarist, I have to comment on the guitar pictured in your avatar. What kind of guitar is that? The bridge and plantilla would seem to indicate a steel-string folk guitar. Have you no shame?

(disclaimer ..some of these facts may be exaggerated for entertainment reasons )

Welcome back, El Kiko. As you noted, you leave for a few months and, to quote Yeats: "Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold."
It will be good to have some adult supervision again.

RE: El Kiko Back in da house (in reply to Escribano)
Escribano ... yes the job is working out ok ... I have a bit more time now as i have things a bit more under control....thanks ... still have a lot of new stuff for me to get on with though .. but i should be able to post something at the weekends at least ....How about your pics ,,,are you still posting them ... ??
mark indigo .....Moronic minor ....excellent ..... I do play a lot of Accidentals ( aka . mistakes ) and usually close to the Bar line ( pub queue) trying always to keep up with the Metronome (a dwarf that lives in the city) . I try not to eat too many beans before playing , thus avoiding the Passing Tone... Plenty of Glissando and vibrato to hide those "accidentals " and Bearing in mind when you use a capo you will be using a "Transposition" ...or a man with a dress...
