I've just realised that my contributions to this forum has gone over 12,000, and that I've been here for 12 years!

i started putting videos on YouTube in 2009 and at the last count I have 983 Subscribers and 169,000 hits.

So what's my next target ? I'd kinda like another 17 subscribers and well the hits just go up and up in their own way with my video on "why I prefer 12 fretters" getting 57,000 hits alone.

Funny to think that in my own little office and my tiny conservatory, I've probably had bigger audience than on stage!

The important thing (apart from some modest bragging rights) is that I hope I have helped some people.

I've enjoyed your regular forum contributions in my somewhat brief time here, Andy...and I've viewed a number of your YouTube vids, and find them informative, educational and always entertaining...

Hope you get another 12K in...

You contributions have certainly helped me, Andy.

I try not to spend too much time on YouTube, but I just subscribed, so you are one step closer to your goal!

Glad you are back at it after your lousy year in '17.

I don't prefer 12-fretters but your slot-head re-string guide is excellent.

I have enjoyed and been informed by your videos and posts, and I thank you for them. The Collings obsession runs deep.

12,000 posts on a silly guitar forum? You kidding me? Man, you must really enjoy hanging out here! But probably not as much as we enjoy your being here with us!
