I listened to the first one....

someone likes to give their instrument a good thumping, don t they? that s ok, I like to give my little Japanese number a good licking sometimes too. no pick tho, don t want to leave too many marks....

...I ll try to get to the others later, bit of a headeache right now, I ll blame my better half.... and my daughter..., but only because its their fault :)
