My Romance

Fred Fried, 8-string guitar and Michael Lavoie, bass. Recorded at Harvest Gallery and Wine Bar, Dennis, MA. I am using a guitar holder designed by Karl Hoyt which keeps the guitar in a perfect playing position without a strap. Recorded by Jeff Foster.

Thanks, Karl! And I'm still loving the holder and still think there should be a market for it. Needs a really catchy name. Anyway, hope you're having a great holiday and all the best for 2012!

Hello Esmond,

Thanks so much. The device (some people call it a monopod) holds the guitar in my most comfortable playing position with out a strap. I'll be posting a video soon which will explain it. By the way, beautiful arrangement of Moonlight in Vermont!

Wonderful playing as always Fred. What is the contraption you are using to hold the guitar and why are you using it now? Phil.
