It's funny that you mention the power of putting your guitar on a stand. About three years ago, while I was away on a business trip, my youngest daughter (about seven years old at the time) discovered my Epiphone dreadnaught in its case in the bottom of my closet. She broke it out and started strumming away. When I returned she asked me about it, never realizing that I could "play" the guitar. When she heard me play, she reacted as though hearing Jimi Hendrix for the first time. Inspired by the favorable crowd reaction,k I went out and bought a stand for the guitar. I've been playing just about every day since. That $12.00 guitar stand was one of the best purchases I have ever made.
