[Harp-L] mic technique/playing electric vs. playing acoustic

["John F. Potts" <hvyj@xxxxxxx>]

One cannot create all effects used while plating acoustically when  
playing electrically.  And one certainly cannot get all the sounds  
one can produce while playing electric when playing acoustic.  While  
there are certain techniques/effects common to both styles, electric  
playing is a fundamentally different animal than acoustic playing.   
If one is just starting to play electric, it may be more instructive  
to see what you can do with the electricity instead of trying to  
figure out how to recreate the effects you rely on when playing  
acoustically.  You may be surprised what you discover.
