Greetings SCGCLover,
Welcome, I’m sure you’ll get some answers here. I’ve worked with Eric for about 9 years and he gets a whole lot of sound out of his Signature model.
I hope you have access to a local guitar store that is a Santa Cruz Dealer. The best thing to do is play a lot of them, each one has been kissed by angels and the Maestro in their own special way.
Enjoy your search and again, Welcome!
Look at how white the top is on his guitar. Tim’s mandolin has really matured as well, nice, thanks Tad!
Well…that’s pretty cool, I had a ebow that I never bonded with…..combine this thing with a Marshall combo and a Electro-Harmonix FREEZE pedal and it could be a whole lot of fun
Welcome Kittcox, Congrats on the guitar, the medium tensions are really nice on that small body, I’m sure you’ll get a lot of answers here, again welcome
Here Zorro,
Plenty of options
D’Addario EJ38H acoustic
D’Addario EXL150H electric
Get a great capo and go crazy
Zorro….thanks….yes I lost my 7 year old Great Dane today…a very hard day, he was my soul mate……taught me so much, but he wasn’t well and he couldn’t breath anymore, it’s been a very intense week with Covid19 in our lives…my wife has spent many hours in front of the vet, not being allowed to go inside..in our Sienna waiting for information, with me texting every 10 minutes….geez
In the mean time, I’ve been trying to keep everything normal at home with our 10 year old girl Great Dane, it’s been a battle, last night when we admitted him to the ER we sat together in the dark at 10:30 talking to each other about how we really feel about what was happening in front of us, it was about 46 degrees outside,
the night before Wendi had sat there for 4 hours, used the seat heater and then needed to call AAA, yes quite an adventure.
What I have learned through the pain is that science matters, we need to be present in every moment of our lives and celebrate not only the success’s but also the heartache
to the forum…sorry if this is TMI…I thank you all for listening and allowing me grief
I offer these lyrics by Jackson Browne, it sums it all up for me, each word is from the soul
For A Dancer
Keep a fire burning in your eye
Pay attention to the open sky
You never know what will be coming down
I don’t remember losing track of you
You were always dancing in and out of view
I must’ve thought you’d always be around
Always keeping things real by playing the clown
Now you’re nowhere to be found
I don’t know what happens when people die
Can’t seem to grasp it as hard as I try
It’s like a song I can hear playing right in my ear
But I can’t sing
I can’t help listening
I can’t help feeling stupid standing ’round
Crying is they ease you down
‘Cause I know that you’d rather we were dancing
Dancing our sorrow away
(Right on Dancing)
No matter what fate chooses to play
(There’s nothing you can do about it anyway)
Just do the steps that you’ve been shown
By everyone you’ve ever known
Until the dance becomes your very own
No matter how close to yours
Another’s steps have grown
In the end there is one dance you’ll do alone
Keep a fire for the human race
Let your prayers go drifting into space
You never know what will be coming down
Perhaps a better world is drawing near
Just as easily it could all disappear
Along with whatever meaning you might have found
Don’t let the uncertainty turn you around
(The world keeps turning around and around)
Go on and make a joyful sound
Into a dancer you have grown
From a seed somebody else has thrown
Go on ahead and throw some seeds of your own
And somewhere between the time you arrive
And the time you go
May lie a reason you were alive
That you’ll never knowGreat story Zorro,
I’m finding a wonderful gratitude for all the gifts that I have been blessed with in my life, my wife, music, travel, great food, amazing friends, creativity, music (sorry, I did I say music twice?), my dogs, where I am blesses to live…….. there is so much ugly around all of us, it’s a great time to look at what we all have on all levels, that brings a big smile to my face. I pray we all make it through this, make your circles in the world small, protect yourself, stay in your neighborhoods, wash your hands, help your neighbors where you can, look for the good, it’s there and it’s precious.
