Rosie

I'm hoping for some pictures from the Eisteddfod but in the meantime here is a "new" or new to me guitar and in fact my first ebay purchase. The thinking behind it was that much of my plauing and writing on the boat on a nlylon-string classical guitar so it seems contractictory to always play a steel-stung "folk" instrument when "going acoustic" on stage. I love the sound of nylon strings and it radically changes my attack on the strings and my whole approch to playing. It's an Autralian made Ashton (an underrated manufactorer) which I'm calling "Rosie" becuase of the sound and the Rose-patterned inlays.
