That had nothing to do with the previous comments. Plus, I responded to your post immediately, while it took you easily over 10 minutes for you to post this.

You sure about that?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure. I just wanted to make sure you had time to read and analyze what I said.

You go on believing that then.

Awesome.

Oh and how did you do with Selkies? Didn't you say you were going to try and learn how to play it?

I don't have a mic... I normally record stuff straight through a guitar preamp.
My classical guitar is not of the electric/classical acoustic, so unless I get a mic, I can't record it.
Obviously, nothing stops me from doing it on electric guitar, but that doesn't sound very authentic classical guitar.

Well, I can play the song from the quiet mid section, to the end

Meh, good enough.

No. It's not good enough.

Learn to play some Fred Frith!

/end fanboyism (Does it ever end though?)

Well, this IS the Tibetan Fox Appreciation Thread.

How did we get so off-topic for so many pages?

I only have one guitar, tuned to E standard.
In order to actually play the whole song, I need a detuned guitar to C# standard (my guitar isn't set up with the right string gauges for doing that) or a 7 string and transpose it (which will make playing it harder).

Since the song was played with guitars in C# standard, the finger stretches for the guitar solo become more difficult, which is part of the extra challenge I put upon myself from playing in E standard.
