Dick Cooper replied to Robert Hancox's discussion Capo Gallery in the group Capo Users Group"Here is one I have used a little. I typically use Planet Waves or two. Here is a picture of a shubb that I cut apart. I sometimes use this on the first fret to capo the top two and bottom two strings. It makes playing in the key of E interesting.

I am a member of the Alvarez group as well and noticed you are from Cuyahoga Falls. I am taking my Alvarez MF1000 to Nervous Dog up at Steels Point and Route 8 Saturday night 7-10.

Dick Cooper replied to Todd Allyn Fleming's discussion natural nails are best in the group Fingerstyle players"I have been playing for years and lately my natural nails have become slightly misshapen and softer and break easily. I tried diet and nail hardener and then went to acrylics. They are very hard and durable and don't look that bad. I have also…"

Fingerstyle players
This is a group for fingerstyle players of all types, from Hedges disciples to Chet channelers.
Dick Cooper commented on David Susman's group Alvarez Owners"I joined this group a while back but I don't think I have contributed yet. I have had a number of Alvarez guitars, probably more Yairis but I have enjoyed them all. My main axe right now is an Alvarez MF1000. I haven't dealt that much with…"

Dick Cooper commented on Richard F. Benjamin's group Buckeye Pickers"I just heard of this group and since it says Buckeye in the title along with something to do with music I couldn't resist. Besides Sam invited me to join. I have been around guitars a while but I am still learning every day. I play a lot of…"

Dick Cooper replied to David Susman's discussion What do you play? in the group Alvarez Owners"Hello. I am new to this site but since I own an Alvarez I thought I'd better join in.

I enjoyed listening to the Alvarez and your style of playing. I wish I had the chance to stay a bit longer and talk as well. I even tried enticing my wife to stop by on her way home so I could stay longer. Didn't work. Let me know when you're up there again and I'll try to make it up there. Maybe even bring the family and help fill the place.

- Welcome, Dick Cooper!
Glad to have more members. Sounds like you are a pretty accomplished player.
We discuss all sorts of things about guitars. Playing styles, types of guitars, types of music. etc I haven't seen tabs on here, but I suspect they are legal. (I get a lot of great stuff from www.chordie.com. You've probably already used it. It is free and provides thousands of lyrics, chords, tabs, and incredibly, key changes at the click of your mouse.)
I'm probably just a little bit better than average player; folk-rock, country, and soft rock of 50's, 60's 70's and 80's. I am able to sing lead or harmony fairly well.
Can't wait to meet and play and sing with many of our Buckeye Pickers.
More later.
