Default Make up an imaginary stupid AGF question...

For example:
“How do I darken the top of my 000-15sm?”

Or

“My cat just passed....I’d like to pay tribute to him. Is there someone who can make strings out of Mittens for my classical guitar?”

Hey guys I've got a couple paying more gigs lined up and, this time, the crowds will be much bigger and the venue larger. What's the best way to hold my pick so I can strum my guitar UP, as well as DOWN to be louder?


(oh wait.....thats not an imaginary question - it's almost commonplace with the absurdity I've seen)

I know you are joking, but First Act (apparently) used to be a pretty good brand name of guitar before hitting the Walmart market. Talk about cheapening a brand name!

I'm looking at custom builder x and custom builder y. One is left handed and one is right handed. Which is better?

Such a target-rich topic -- so many possible answers that it is challenging to come up with something too absurd that hasn't actually been asked. But when I see the phrase "first world problem" in any Q or A, I quit reading right there.

I let my bird sit on my guitar neck when I play. Any issues with neck angle I should worry about?
