Well, just want to set the record straight. I have 4 guitars, and 1 mandolin. I don't play the mandolin much, because of how big my fingers are. For guitar, I play it constantly. I get home from work, I play. I go over to a friends house, I bring along a guitar. I go down to state street, I bring a guitar. I could play granny on mandolin. That actualy would sound nice. hmmm

I'll pull it out and give it a try. look for it on the recording section. :)
Yes, I am in a box

Oh, I see. It does sound more full with the high e open.

ditto, but if you ask me, its an advantage. hitting stretch chords and never worrying about hitting muting the wrong strings once you get the hang of it
