Ed Mehollin commented on BrotherX's group Home Recording"I just bought a Blue "Mickey" Digital mike for my iPad. I have just played with it for a few minutes but am impressed so far. Has anyone been using one?"
"Yeah, I have about 94-95% loss in both ears. Without the HAs, I pretty well deaf. Happily, I am employed with a good insurance plan, allowing me to get these high-tech hearing aids and the FM system I use. It's still not perfect, as…"
Ed Mehollin left a comment for Phil Manuel"I guess my hearing loss may not be that bad. I can hear OK on the phone and needed the aids for conversation. I just couldn't hear well enough in meetings at work. The thing I noticed when I got the hearing aids just what I had gradually come…"
Ed Mehollin commented on Dan Gabel, Editor & Group Publisher's group Fingerstyle players"Hey, Phill. I wear hearing aids, too. When programming them, I took a guitar into the audiologist's office and we played with a special setting, one of three available, to optimize for the guitar. It also helped with background "clutter…"

Ed Mehollin commented on Dan Gabel, Editor & Group Publisher's group Fingerstyle players"Jim, whenever I see a huge volume of emails that so and so has joined every forum in sight, it is likely a spammer. I saw the one today about banks having money to lend. It's hard to believe these morons see any success from these intrusions!"
Ed Mehollin commented on Anton Emery's group Celtic Guitar"Not exactly the bod ran but certainly percussive. I had the great pleasure to see Chris play here in Houston recently. He was magnificent!"
Ed Mehollin commented on Anton Emery's group Celtic Guitar"Watch some Chris Smither video. He mics a piece of wood and uses his feet."
Ed Mehollin commented on John Wilson's group 12-String Guitar"Let us know. I haven't found them in any local music shops. You would think some place in Houston would carry them."

Yeah, I have about 94-95% loss in both ears. Without the HAs, I pretty well deaf. Happily, I am employed with a good insurance plan, allowing me to get these high-tech hearing aids and the FM system I use. It's still not perfect, as you cannot recover fully from hearing loss, nature has not provided enough backup. I don't like to dwell on it, and just go about playing as I can. I have another friend in the same kind of shape, and she's actually touring and recording - what an inspiration she's been, too. I guess my message to young folks is to hold your senses dear, protect them, and keep them from the hazards of our trade as best you can. With a good sound man, you really don't need push the volume to 10.

Thanks for the info.Interesting story about the Lowden.
The Elixir nanowebs are slightly brighter sounding than the polywebs.
I am a bit of a string nerd,lol.Have you tried the Elixir phosphor bronze? I think these sound best on spruce topped guitars, whereas on cedar top the nanowebs are best.

Thanks for your comment. I've had stickers on my Ovation for 5 years now that my grand daughter placed there. Better than custom inlays.
