    Here is a YT video describing the process. He confirms that there is no automated way to convert notation to tab.

    @karlawehling There is no definitive way to determine which finger to use. I would subscribe to the any way that works approach. For example, I have a partial amputation on my pinky. As such sometimes I slide the 3rd finger over. Also, since the same note gets repeated on the fretboard, the same note/chord on another location might suffice. There are also stretching exercises you could/should do. Yet one more option, if your guitar fretboard meets the body at the 14th fret, try one that meets at the 12th fret. That would marginally reduce the distance between frets.

    It is not a big enough problem to give up altogether.

    @zman I think my hands are similar to yours. Here is what Zager Guitars told me. They offer two nut widths and an unconditional 30 day return policy. . .

    We have 2 sizes 1 11/16 and 1 3/4 but our string spacing, neck shape and taper, fret size and shape, fret board radius, lower string heights and much lower string pressures make our guitars feel quite a bit different than other guitars with similar dimensions. We’ve had players come from entirely different sizes who actually prefer ours once they play one.I recently posted a video about measurements on our facebook at https://www.facebook.com/zagerguitars/videos/347245432604781/ We ship the 1 3/4 as this is what the majority of our customers want but if you want the 1 11/16 just let me know when you place your order and i will make sure you get that size.

    @MMMURRAY There are two nut widths available from Zager. They will let you know what they are and how to order the nut size you are looking for.

    I have a looper built in to my TCHelicon Play Accoustic. It is barely adequate and they have just shut down their pedal business in order to concentrate on gaming. Remains to be seen if they will sell that asset.

    Ditto+ and Boss seem to have a lock on affordable looper pedals.

    @Loraine That would be great, when time permits. I like the idea of the screen shot.

    I too was away and missed June 29 & 30 daily’s. It is rather harsh to not be able to see the schedule in order to get the name of the challenge. If that were so, it would be possible to get them off another members profile.

    Can anyone let us know the names of June 29 and 30 daily’s?

    The pattern with the chord change is very helpful. (pattern five)

    @campfire I believe those are muted chords.

    @steve2150 The Zager line can be ordered in two different nut widths for wider string spacing. https://zagerguitar.com/ They are hard to find used, but are sold direct to consumer with a free return policy. I think they are worth a look.

    First you need to decide what you will be doing with it. Gig’s, jam club or home studio. Some amps are designed specifically for acoustic guitars and often have two channels and can accept a mic. Modelling amps are digital and offer lot’s of flexibility. Make sure you look at the Positive Grid Spark 40 and Spark Mini. Also the small Yamaha is excellent.

    I have the Spark 40

    This does seem to be a request without too much server space needed. @Levi
