    Guitar (currently taking fingerpicking lessons) (Martin Ellipse XC1T)
    Bass (Tobias Growler 5-string & Michael Kay 5-string Fretless Acoustic)
    Banjo (Scruggs style) (Deering Sierra) -I took about a year of lessons but haven't played it much since switching to fingerpicking lessons.
    Here's bluegrass recording of Doug's Tune that I did on my laptop with Audacity. It's free software that allows you to lay down multiple tracks and can export to MP3 with the LameMP3 library.

    I did all three parts: my banjo, an Ovation shallowbody guitar that I got rid of when I bought the Martin, & my acoustic bass). It was about 6 months into my lessons so it's a little slow and there are a few flubs:

    Guitar - 13 years...and for the first 11 I never owned an acoustic lol I play mostly metal, but recently I've been enjoying an occasional acoustic interlude...opeth style :D

    I've got an 81 Flying V '67 reissue black with white pickguard and truss rod cap. Been running it through a marshall JCM800 (4210, 1x12 combo) with a 'never quite right' effects loop. Recently inherited a yahmaha acoustic from a roomate that went AWOL. It's beat to hell but I've fixed it up a little. I really want to get a PRS soon, but I'm not sure I can justify the hefty pricetag.

    100 watt tube? Those things scream!!!! my budy used to have a jcm800 with, a Marshall 4x10 half stack (I think it was a 4x10), unfortunately his did not go to "11" but didnt need to, would make your ears bleed at 7. go for the PRS you wont regret it!

    No, the 4210's were *only* 50W, but yea...all tube :D I rarely get to turn it up above 3 or 4 since it instantly results in a knock on my door from my neighbors. At my old place I could play much louder, and well...I'm surprised I can still hear.

    If and when I do buy another electric, it will be a PRS Custom 24. With the bird inlays of course ;)
