| Secret Weapon Instruments
What gear are you using that never makes your gearlist? A cheap mic? A toy instrument?
I use a Martin Backpacker guitar for an in-between sound: not a standard guitar and not a high-strung. When capo'ed it takes on a banjoesque or mandolin flavor. John Jennings (Mary Chapin Carpenter) tuned me onto that trick. There are cheap copies of the Martin on eBay for around $50.00. I have one of those, too.
