*polemic*

Don't listen to David and his b/s about moral conviction - moral
conviction has little or nothing to do with music (except perhaps
tangentially) and his comment about arrogance is probably more
arrogant than your picking up your guitar and doing something with it
instead of bleating online about how something doesn't fit one's
expectations.

I had a listen to your files and sure it's not a classical guitar but
then I couldn't care less - the results are what counts and I like
them. I thought it made an interesting change hearing these pieces
with a slightly different tone to them. Nice one!
