This piece sort of came to me while I was trying to think of something else to write I was noodling on my acoustic. This is my first really good sounding acoustic. It's a Taylor that has koa wood back and sides. It's an endangered wood. They can only cut when the volcano is gonna burn down the forest anyway. I bought it years ago over 20 years ago when I heard it in a Music store and it was on sale for half off and I have to put it on layaway because that was a little tight for my budget at the time, but it was the best sounding acoustic. God played at the time. It didn't have a pick up on it and that's probably why most people didn't buy it but that is exactly why I didn't buy it. It didn't have its own pick up and I could pick my own pick up to put on it. I didn't wanna cut a hole in a side or anything so I put a Fishman bar underneath. The bridge is very passive pick up that doesn't affect the sound of a guitar at all anyway recording, though seems to be all to the left because for some reason, I recorded it in stereo, but it all went to one side and then when I tried recording in it mono, it still went to one side. I don't know what's going on with this this happened once before about 5 to 6 years ago, I just didn't remember how to fix it. I'm kind of on a time crunch here so this is my composition for this week. I'll fix the recording as I can and maybe I'll be able to put it back up later if they'll let me if I can get this one to do right

Someday I'd love to pick up a good Taylor. I know they have a range, but the ones I've played have sounded so good. Nice noodling, and keep it up!

Thank you that was my first Taylor to buy and since that time I bought a 12 string Taylor and another six string Taylor I like them because they're very clean all the way across the spectrum and they don't get muddy at any particular time they're not designed to be rhythm guitars or any specific kind of guitar. They're very popular my finger pickers. And I just love playing them. I've had a couple of gigs where all I had to do was improvise and personally I think that's the best kind. I've taken a fat body, jazz guitar, a solid body and 12 string and a regular acoustic six string and then for a couple of hours, I can really enjoy sitting there with effects improvising and I think that's great fun making music for Music didn't exist before but then again the downside is that I couldn't repeat any of those pieces when I get done with the upside is that people can come up and give me a little motif and I'll improvise around it for a while. So thank you for your comments and your compliments. It means a lot.
