Why can't you have a strumming guitar?
i can, but recording a guitar would break a boundary that i have thus far never broken. it's not that i couldn't break it, but i have always been vastly able to accomplish everything i've needed without breaking that boundary. it's kind of like when you are writing essays for school and you are typing all of them. you are typing and typing and typing and typing and typing, and then you want some different fonts so you change the font and that's cool and good. and then you get to a part where you might actually need to write it on paper with an actual quill and ink. you may have a quill in the closet and you think it works and you think you know how to use it maybe .... but do you have paper? maybe/maybe not ... but they sell paper at the store and you think you could probably get the paper .... but what will really happen if you put the quill on to that paper? will there be any unexpected twists and challenges? also you have to get the image back into the computer somehow. ... and you might have a scanner but you are not sure if it works ... and then you will have to make sure it is integrated into your digital work in a way that feels right and makes sense. But you have never gotten around to think about any of this because you have learned to get absolutely everything done by using fonts in innovative ways. so as i said it's an entirely different door which i have avoided opening for a long time, and many people used to lecture me in the past about how i could never succeed without opening that door. but i never listened to them and i never opened the door, because i have always felt that i have had huge advantages otherwise. but i am now for the first time actually considering doing it. i only started considering this about 3 days ago but i'm really starting to think it might be a good idea. getting really sick of that fake banjo
