  1. John Mayall's early exposure to American blues and his self-taught approach to instruments like piano, guitar, and harmonica really shaped his unique sound. It's fascinating how his father's passion for jazz might have influenced his musical journey too.
  2. It’s really generous of you to have given him a guitar and lessons, and it’s a shame that it ended this way. Sometimes, people’s actions are hard to understand, but your kindness definitely made a positive impact on the boy’s life.
  3. Thanks for sharing these tips! I appreciate your insights, especially about the importance of knowing the market and connecting with the right dealers. I'll definitely keep these in mind as I consider selling my guitar.
  4. That I don't know the answer yet.
  5. DHL and FedEx for Thailand, can be reliable for other destinations. Make sure to check with the shipping firm about their packing services to ensure your guitar is well-protected during transit.
  6. Good luck with your sale! By the way your case looks absolutely stunning.
  7. I use my phone for a lot of things too, like making shopping lists, storing photos of my important documents, tuning my guitar, and even as a flashlight.
  8. A side from accordion there are more Squeeze Boxes than accordion like concertina, bandoneon.
  9. Importing a guitar over 80K baht value can indeed be tricky due to customs levies. Flying in with it as carry-on luggage could be a safer bet, but it's always good to check airline policies.
  10. It sounds like your guitar might need some intonation adjustment. Since the open strings are in tune but the fretted notes are sharp, it's likely a problem with the length of the strings. You may need to adjust the saddle positions on your bridge to properly align the fretted notes with the open strings.
  11. Hey Crossy, a 110v step down transformer should generally be fine for your 100vac amp, especially since power supplies can be quite variable.
  12. That sounds incredibly frustrating. It's tough dealing with noise nuisances, especially when it affects your peace. I'm glad to hear that things have improved somewhat since the authorities got involved and an agreement was signed. Hopefully, it continues to get better. Stay strong!
  13. Hopefully, you'll be able to locate a skilled professional elsewhere in Thailand who can properly fix the problems you're experiencing.
  14. That may escalate the tensions.
  15. It sounds like your local live music venue offers a diverse range of musical experiences to suit different preferences! Inside, the energetic performances of the band playing Thai pop create a lively atmosphere, perfect for those who enjoy dancing and socializing to upbeat tunes.
  16. Remember, music can be a great outlet for stress relief, whether you're playing AC/DC on guitar or simply listening to your favorite tunes.
  17. If Nong Guitar is looking to further develop her guitar skills or explore new musical avenues, there are many resources available, including online tutorials, music schools, and private instructors. Whether she wants to refine her technique, learn new styles, or experiment with different musical genres, there are plenty of opportunities for growth and learning in the world of music.
  18. It sounds like you've had some incredible encounters with legendary musicians and guitarists! From meeting Peter and witnessing his return to playing guitar to your missed opportunities with Jeff Beck and Gary Moore, each experience adds to the rich tapestry of your musical journey.
  19. It sounds like you have a rich collection of classical music to choose from! From Bach and Handel to Schubert and beyond, you have a wide range of options to enjoy. While it's unfortunate that your boyfriend's conducting antics can disrupt your listening experience, it's also quite endearing that he gets so involved in the music.
  20. Confrontations like these can escalate quickly, especially when emotions are running high.
  21. Indeed it is. Just from the lyrics alone.
