The acoustic rocket has carefully been placed on the launch pad, safety harnesses are fastened, helmets are in place… all systems go.
The countdown begins 10… 9… 8…
All aboard are intergalactic guitar geeks ready to see what lies within the galaxy of geekdom.
7… 6… 5…
Constellations made of abalone, satellites held together with 80/20 bronze guitar strings, moons made up of layers upon layers of exotic tonewoods.
4… 3… 2…
A gargantuan galactic gathering place where guitar geekiness flourishes.

Blast Off!!!
Welcome to Acoustic Tuesday, your gravity-free guitar geek world chocked full of all of the guitar goodness that you should be aware of.
#4 Spaceship Finger Protectors ?!?!
Fingerpicks are little bent pieces of metal that sit atop your fingers so that you can dig in, pull some extra volume out of your instrument, maintain clarity, and absolutely destroy your cuticles. It’s true, for all of the good that fingerpicks do, it comes at a cost of damaging the cuticles of your picking fingers, but it doesn’t have to be that way anymore…

Curious about how to practice fingerpicking? Check out this article I wrote on how to fingerpick.

Hi guys, Mike Nowak aka…Phoenix Mike here. Howdy from Arizona. My membership started about three weeks ago and I am lovin’ this. I have owned my acoustic guitar for about four years and am finally picking it up daily since joining. Thanks for the inspiration and making this so much fun. I can finally see myself spending the time I need to learn to play…awesome!!!

Found the airfare I could live with, then went to buy festival tickets…..Alas! All tickets sold out! I wish I had known about this fest earlier… Guess I could fly out and try to get tickets, but that’s a bit too risky for my wallet.
Hi Guys! Hey Tony…question for you. After watching the Acri Fingerpicks Review, i’m curious…do you wear fingerpicks on only your index finger and middle finger? Why not your ring finger? When I fingerpick, I use three fingers (excluding my thumb, of course). Thanks! Loving the “AT” shows!!
