	  I suppose we could overcome the problem of strings being
	too close together by using a bass guitar. The problem
	of strings as thin as cheese slicer wires is also avoided,
	but there is still a need for rather tough gloves, but still
	thin enough to get the feel (round wounds *EAT* beginners
	fingers). Mobility would also be a problem, unless you were
	one of those who plays C&W (GAD! 3 notes for HOURS), although
	since a lot of them use flat wound strings (dull and thumpy)
	so the need for extra tough gloves might be a little less :-).
	Anyway, I suppose that I could be persuaded to do the testing,
	if you twist my arm a little, I'd even play a little C&W (it's
	against my religion to play less than 5 notes for more than
	5 minutes).

				Just another deranged rocker,
