Yeah.  I think a light touch with a heavy pick is important there, 
too.  If it's a new string, it'll have that "boing" quality already; 
you just have to make sure to keep it going without deadening it.

A worthy goal.  And then other ambitions will rear their heads. 
Right now I feel similarly about getting the damned thing *in tune* 
all the way up the neck.  (I'm having intonation problems with my LP 
Jr-style compensated bridge.)

Also in the lifelong ambition department, on Monday I'll be playing a 
short set at CB's 313 Gallery, which isn't *exactly* playing CBGB, 
but is as close as an experimental weirdo such as myself is going to 
get.
