Accidents happen & it happened last night. I was fixing a leaking tap, a harmless task but not when sharp edges lurk in dark corners under the sink. I was unscrewing the tap when the wrench slipped & my finger went into a sharp gap. I'm rather oblivious to pain so ignoring this mishap happened naturally. It's only after the task was completed that I saw my index finger covered in blood. After a quick wash-up, I noted the cut was rather deep. So off to the nearby clinic it was & the doc stitched me & referred me for X-ray since there was a notable swelling at the joint as well; there might be a fracture. Doc's order: No index finger activities for 7 days which is equivalent to no guitar playing till next year. SIGH.

it's not ur fretting hand right? (or left)
i'm quite alright, just that after the anesthetics wear out, the pain was bothersome... couldn't quite sleep last night. i feel like using duct tape to bind my index & middle fingers together so everything would be more functional, he he...
it's my picking hand index finger :-)
Get well soon Sub! Coincidentally... it's my turn to fix my tap today...*GULP*

Happy New Year
Oh dear...
Hope Your finger recovers fast!
Ouch! Hope it heals up soon!
In the interim, lots of time to catch up on the gear and album review backlog, hey?
(more likely with the family)
How's the Ant treating you? I have a Handsome Devil kicking around and am curious about your thoughts on the Blackheart amp(s).
thanks everyone for the well-wishes :-)
the Blackheart amp is much overlooked when it comes to a tube-tone fundamental to propel pedals. people are looking at other amps with more revered names. i'm not too keen with the Blackheart's drive offerings but the clean is very much above average :-)
