Right Hand Question

Jazzaferri

What Stochelo has discovered about his downstrokes I believe according to Chrisiaan who had the conversation with him, is on multiple downstrokes at speed once the pick is through the string instead of thouching on the string below and reversing course, it circles around. I have been working on that since I read it and my repetitive downs have become smoother and more fluid.

That figuring on the back is painted on! Harmony were known to have developed that technique.

I was actually wondering about that... that would be quite the one-piece back!

Beautiful finish! Mine is same guitar without pickguard or headstock logo, which appears to have been the Kay Triangle.

Rob, if you want to see Stochelo's technique up close, make sure you're at the iggf next year!

I'm an ignorant man in many ways :-( What is iggf?

Rob MacKillop

Jazzaferri - double down strokes and circling...OK...more to learn :-)

Jehu - yes, the guitar looks expensive. I'd happily sell you it for £1,000 :-)

rgrice - Kay Triangle, eh? I'll look them up.

Ah, iggf - the International Gypsy Guitar Festival. I am now enlightened! Looks amazing. I'll put it in my diary, but the money might go on a guitar this year. But next year...

Yes, I know. It's very tempting.
