Naw. 

I've even been known to do "fancy" things like alternate between the root and the fifth with the LH.  In G, of course, and only in G.

But, yes, those "off the wall" chords like Bm and Em, I couldn't agree more.

BLASPHEMY!!! I and V chords are boring as sh*t. Hell, even Mary had a little lamb could do with a little spice, or as I like to call it - the vi and IV chords.

C and G are boring as sh*t.

G [is] boring as sh*t.

That's true.  The key of E minor is much better.

But, yes, a plain unaltered V7 chord is not that exciting.  It needs an augmented fifth, and either a b9, a #9, or both.  Plus the 13.  Don't be such a square, man!

C?  It's OK for certain things.  Like right up my nostrils, or ear-holes, or one of those orifices.

Why am I not surprised that you managed to turn the letter 'C' into a reference for Cocaine.

And please don't go into greater detail about which orifices you stuffed that sweet white powder into.

No, it is true, I prefer C insufflated!  Few other drugs can make that claim.

Picture a forum full of musicians without reference to illicit drug use, and I'll eat your hat.

Fair enough.

I favor Freddy King's albums myself, but one must admit there's a fair bit of substance use among musicians. 

Of whatever variety.

One could try leaving it on a street corner, but then people are going to start a big pile of them that then must be burned.

A serious fire hazard.

Such a great sound, I mean.  No, there are some legitimate uses for double-courses of strings, but really, no.  It's like a harpsichord or something.  Burn it all to the ground, leave no trace for future generations.

;D

I just slap an octave doubler pedal on those, put it through an envelope filter....add a Floyd Rose tremolo to the bridge....file the nut so it takes 16-->58 strings....meh, it's good enough!

And the wives were none the wiser!

Yes, that may be, and I have heard some of your arrangements and have no reason to doubt you.

But are you a senior level LUTHIER?

There was a lot of crap made in the 1950s.  Kids with their talking pictures and rock and roll and hot rods.

I'm 100 years young and I smoke the reefer every day.  I also wear sunglasses indoors, so you know I'm down with the hep youths and their grunge look that's so popular.

I also never get in trouble for smashing my car into things, or shoplifting, or my raging racism and sexism on account of my age.

Code name?  "The Silver Fox," natch.

It's a pity Mamie Van Doren is too young for me.  I touched one of her dirty pillows once, though, in 1963.

So I may be too old to cut the mustard, but I can still lick the jar.

Are you talking about that little girl who got murdered?

If so, press play while connected to a powerful amplifier and good speakers.

If not, do it anyway.

Trust me, I am.



Or if you're really old, do this one.  It will adequately perturb local pests like dogs.

I hear this one fine, but who can prove the source of the sound?

I was curious to see what my hearing status was... While I can't hear the 18,000hz audio... I can JUST make it to 17,200hz... and I'm in my mid 30's.

I'm pretty proud of that. Professional at my last hearing check said I had the ears of someone 10 years younger.

Exactly.  You ***, p_p, you trying to get this thread closed?

Also, you *really* don't want to have a porno contest with me.  There are lots of "little people," as they like to be called, and just like everyone's favorite Scottish game, golf, there are eighteen holes.  No Mulligans allowed, either.  You have to play it from the rough and right onto the green.

And about this.  Balls, I just don't believe it.  I'm probably a mere ten years older than you, but admittedly, I have some hearing damage.

You see, a grenade exploded inside my helmet when I was fighting eco-terrorists in the 1990s during my fascist phase.
