Default The Mini Coco Rag

Well, I yielded to temptation. Got the all-mahogany Cordoba Coco Mini. All I can play on it is the kinda music heard on old-time B & W cartoons from 1910. Happily, that's all I can play on any guitar anyhow. It's the latest trend in music, they say.

That's great, Jane! I don't know how I missed this a couple weeks ago. What an adorable little Cordoba. Sounds great!

thanks, Kerbie.

DO NOT BUY ONE OF THESE.....

because you will never play any of your other guitars again....it is the crack pipe of guitardom....

it's totally addictive....every time i pick it up, a brand new tune appears...a little disney coco voice whispers in the brain:

"play THIS note....then play THAT chord.....then strum over the soundhole....now nearer the bridge....now play THAT inversion.....etc"

i'm close to 100% serious....last night i was thinking "hmmm, i oughtta sell all the other guitars sitting around here and buy more of these coco things, one for requinto tuning, one for open G, one for Terz, one for Drop D, one for...."

i mean, i'm thrilled that i like it so much, but i wasn't expecting Instant Total Addiction Syndrome....

you have been WARNED!!! play a coco mini mahogany AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Wow... quite a difference. Remarkable for that size instrument! I think you'll have lots of fun with that one.
