the arm sock...

Like most bedroom musicians, i play guitar in a very un-orthodox way. Because of this retardted-ness, i injure the underside of my right arm. It rubs onto the body of the guitar in such a way that the friction, caused by my playing, pull out the hairs and cut away at my skin. This is quite painful afterwards - Imagine a 'chinese burn' that let blood.

To counter-act this problem, i started cutting off the closed ends of socks and using them as arm guards. Now when i play, the action is so smooth and it makes playing a lot easier on the (h)arm.

Currently i'm sporting a brown airplane sock. They're cool because they don't have heels to them. AND they come in different colours. I want a green one. anybody got a green airplane sock?
