I play nothing but electric. I don't think I've touched an acoustic guitar in 5 years or more.
My nephew bought a used Ovation and asked me to clean it up for him. So he left it with me for a few days.
After the cleaning and set-up, fresh strings etc...I played it for a while. I must say I enjoyed it as a change.
But, after I was done, I noticed my finger tips were black and sore. My fingers are well seasoned for playing
and it baffled me as to why they felt like I had never picked up a guitar in my life??...and what's with the black
on my fingers? They were new strings.
Is acoustic a whole new beast? lol
