It goes as well as it can, two weeks after having all of my teeth removed. I've got a CBG kit on its way to me, which I intend to string up backwards since I'm a Southpaw, and tune as a dutar-two strings, plus a third string as a drone note. I'm looking for some easy way to translate regular sheet music into Canjo notation. Too bad there isn't a piece of software out there that does that automatically! I can't chord due to hand damage, so the best I can do is depress one or two or three strings at a time and use a ceramic slide. 

Aloha Darryl.  Thank you for the friend invite.  Very nice work!

Hi there Darrell ! Thanks for the like! you can hear it  on the Track "Vamp Killer "on the Music box below on this page ! Greeeeettszzz A.D.

Hi Darryl!

I'll tell you, I will never get used to the desert.  I am from Northern California, Redwoods and the Pacific coast so even after 10 years, the heat and the dirt will never be my thing.  Plus, it is sunny over 300 days a year and that can drive you crazy is you like dynamics.  Folks that want to live in Ground Hogs Day (Bill Murry) can have it.

I will say however, that there is a certain sensation from the 110+ heat that is unique on the skin.  It is a sensation that I not have felt here and actually like for a minute.

Just joined the Nation so I have yet to connect with a CGB.  Before I get into this I was a collector of cigar boxes because I have always liked them.  Deciding which out to "sacrifice" is a little tough!  The dry heat is never good for wood!

Cheers for the friend invite and it's gladly accepted. This is my 4th attempt at leaving a message so fingers crossed it works this time. You have some exceptional looking guitars and the torch is an amplifier?  Brilliant.

Hi Darryl and cheers for the welcome and you're dead right.

Am building a 4 string but am already planning the set, 3,2, and diddley bow. Awsome instruments. After 30 odd years of guitars I suddenly find a whole new world out there. It's brilliant. Cheers again

Hi..I have recorded with carbon mics.. they can be a bit temperamental but do have a unique sound..The need the sound very close and dont have a wide coverage...so three string may be best or a didley bow..I guess you would need to plant one so the bridge vibrates it like a piezo.. but maybe slightly spaced off? Post a blog on it asking for advice is always a good way They make good harmonica mics.

Thanks mate.

Thanks Darryl , I watched a lot of videos and did my best

thanks for the comment and friend request!
