Hi Greg! Thank you so much for the research. Very interesting.

Yeah, the 000-15sm feels wider and flat, even though my Taylors have the same nut width (1.75 inches). Funny how the radius makes a difference. The other factor is that the string spacing is wider at the bridge on the Martin. That’s kinda nice for fingerpicking. I hope I can adjust to the Martin’s neck. This thing has such a nice deep resonance, different from my other guitars.

I am having trigger-finger issues with my fretting hand, so that’s affecting my playing and comfort level, too. (Probably requires surgery soon.)

Cheers!

You might try googling “understanding tabulature” and “understanding chord diagrams.”

Haha! Thanks for the chuckle, Jim. He was just a kid hoping for success back then!

And thanks for co-hosting last night. You really helped make the night go smoothly. (I always have a touch of anxiety at the beginning. Gets better each time. Helps that we can rely on co-hosts, and that we know so many participants now.)

I hope your mood has lightened! Maybe spring will help. It always helps me!
