My grandfather always said, "With the right tools, you can to anything." He was right.
I recently watched Tomo show his appreciation for the "Duo Sonic" the short scale guitar intended to be a student model. I bought one, received it two days ago, and have fallen in love. It's simple, beautiful, Tide Pool Blue, and well made. Most importantly for me; a dream to play. At 58, dexterity and technical improvement are essential. I have found it in the Duo Sonic.
I coudn't put it down. I found I was able to finger the frets with fluidity and ease. At once I was feel more capable and confident.
I now believe, more learners should consider or at least try one. Thank you, Tomo. Arigato, Sensei!
