In every example I've seen "That Thing You Do" is played in starting in E. But to get any vocal leverage I have to start it with a C (the peoples chord).
.
That makes 4 songs that could use a longneck.
Let's see... a minimum of $600... divided by 4 songs... times frequency played.... nope... the math still doesn't work out.

Brad....you are looking at a longneck the wrong way.

With a capo, the longneck can play EVERYTHING you currently play in the same key as before...PLUS you can play all those songs that are just a hair out of your comfortable singing range.

And because of it's brilliant design and sound, it sounds so much bigger and fuller than a guitar in standard tuning...and I have found this big and full sound to translate even to sounds that are capo'ed up to standard E and above.

Like I have said before, locally I use the Longnecks for all my open mics and then capo up when/if required/desired!

yeah but... GAS tends to trump logic and reason. OK maybe not funding math... although there's always MasterCard!

Tho we both like the chord changes, That Thing You Do is out... for now. It just didn't click.
.
To Make You Feel My Love is still in along with newcomers Wild Nights & In My Room.

Too bad about That Thing You Do. I ended up learning it in Bb, with a capo at the 3rd fret. Makes it real easy for solo guitar to approximate the short solo...

I'd be interested to hear you play it Paul.
Next time we run into eachother, okay?
