I've started playing with my jazz band again. I thought I'd be rusty, but surprisingly it all came back to me. I've also started playing acoustic guitar for my friend's project, Hutch and the Hookers. We play his originals as well as some Todd Snider and Billy Joe Shaver covers. I guess we'll play an open mic at some point. We're also recording a My Morning Jacket song for a MMJ tribute CD. The guitar I'm playing is a new Kramer D-100. I got it for $99 from Music Yo. It plays very well and sounds great with my friend's voice. Granted I'm not exactly the most discriminating player when it comes to acoustic guitars, but thus far I've very happy with it. The only change I made was installing some new Thomastik-Infeld strings. I went with their Plectrum Acoustic Series (.010 - .041). $12.67 from juststrings.com.
