Hey ToddK we've missed you!

As you've dropped in to say hello, tell us, how's it going without the pick?

RE: for ToddK (in reply to Ailsa)

Hi Ailsa,

Its going well. I dont have a whole helluva lot of practice time, but
i'm doing ok with it.
Unfortunately, im STILL waiting for my index nail to grow in. Its taking forever.
It was really short. I had bitten it down well into the quick.
The other thing i recently tossed, was acrylics, or any sort of artificial nail.
So though it would be nice to just glue something on my index, and go,
im resisting that temptation, as i want to keep my nails totally natural from
now on. The tone is really good. I dont want to mess it up.

As soon as i feel like im getting a decent sound out of it, i'll definately upload
my progress on video.

Overall, i really like playing conventionally, cause the sound is just "there".
Its built in. I dont have to work so hard to get the right sound, and thats
fun.
The downside is, i cant play anything. hahhaha
