'A Place For Solitude'

That was a nice introspective piece, Phil. Your guitar sounds great as always.

Hi Phil I'm curious - what string gauges and brand do you use on your guitar for this tuning?

Seriously thought I don't understand why you aren't known as a world class composer.

Wow!! what a comment - much appreciated

Another lovely composition Phil. The Zoom H1 sure works well for you. How do you set it (levels, etc.)?

Thanks JulienC

I understand what you are saying about the HD video and perhaps someday I will get a better camera since at the moment I only use my laptop webcam. However, to be honest the quality of the video picture is not at the top of my priorities and a HD camera would not improve the sound. My interest is mainly in the music. Thanks for your comment nonetheless.

Hi Steve - I just stick with the D'Addario EJ16 .012-.053 light on both my Brooks for everything I play. Seem to work fine even for the low C. The guitars are both 24.75" (630mm) scale length

Thanks Bill

Re the Zoom H1 I just plug it into my laptop as a usb device and record the video. I know from experience where to put it in front of the guitar which is about 18". I then take the audio off the video adjust the volume and a bit noise reduction using free editing softeware then put it back on the video. The sound is not great at all IMO so I am looking into upgrading to proper mics etc later in the year

Absolutely beautiful. I've always loved ambiguous/suspended tonality. This nails it. Thank you.
