Hi Unc!! No slide on any of my latest tunes. 2 strings and dulcimer fretting. Mostly just songs I have sung and loved for a long time. Hope you are well!!
Hello ! UJ ! say whats this piece by Jim on "Califest canceled"? tryed to reach richard, does not reacted Yet ! is he in a retrait ? or is Jim rocking the cradle? to get the Show on the Road ? Greeeeettsszz A.D.
Thanks for your comments Uncle John.The rough one was intended to be just a lash up to test a fret slot jig that my pal Chris made.It 's turned out probably closer to the ethos of CBG's than my usual over manicured stuff.Not very loud acoustically but great amplified.
This video is the unboxing and the demonstration of a beautiful, six stringer built by Louie Lamanna. Join Louie and I June 15 at the second annual Pittsburg...

Hi Uncle John,
I don't know what has been going on but I have found it almost impossible to upload photos of my recent builds.
Failed using the laptop, a Samsung tablet and my mobile. Succeeded today with the Indian photo using an old Hudl tablet.
As a confirmed dinosaur it's been very frustrating, do I try hitting them with a hammer or do I try to borrow a 10yr. old to assist.
