Galaxy Guitar Still Sings

The session wasn't recorded but this isn't a game.  I picked up the Galaxy Guitar to tune her up but once I was holding her I figured don't stop.  Go for it.

The play was fluid and strong.  I regret that it's not recorded but I'm glad I didn't stop.  There's still a bit of tingly in my fingers and that's unexplained but it doesn't stop playing and doesn't affect play either.  The wobbly dizzy has mostly abated or this would have been impossible.  It felt just swell.  It's tiring but that's always good.


The main 'test' is yer wiggle.  If you don't got wiggle with a guitar, you don't got nothin'.  That's when you hold a note and wiggle it in place on that sexy, ebony neck.  By doing that, you can caress every nuance of a harmonic she knows into being.

(Ed: is this supposed to a black thing?)

Nope, ebony is a dark hardwood for the fingerboard and it feels extremely sexy because it is so much smoother and more sensual than a rosewood fingerboard.  For me, rosewood feels kind of dry whereas ebony feels like she is ... well ... I imagine you can finish that.

It's a good feeling, good vibe.  It would have been a grand disappointment to fail out of it but that didn't happen so all is good.
