love my mini hog too.....can't see ever selling it.....in addition to the above stated uses for our minis, I also use mine for my "learning sessions", the hr or two of strumming to get a new song down..... just last week I decided to let my local shop look over my mini and we tweaked the neck, brought those strings down a bit and man, it's even more fun now, and I think that adjustment even made it easier to tune and "hold it's tune".....have fun, maybe I'll hear your "mini" concert at an airport someday!
