We Are Now Very Quickly Connecting With Each Other In Consciousness —Beyond the Realms of “Psychically”
So last night just before bed, I sat down with the Guild D-15M just to mess around a little with the new open tuning. After a while, I had found something relatively engaging snd began fleshing it out. Knowing full well it’s still in its infancy stage, I thought “you know, people might enjoy seeing…
