Nice! In this project, I placed a pickup inside the can, at the base of the wood, pasting into the can lid. To get better the position of the pickup is on the bridge. The output of the pickup is 4.8k.
You are welcome, Andries. The new tune sounds great, that hobo stick is getting some good work in! Thx about Eve's Flight! I appreciate when folks like my original stuff. Cheers!
Thanks for the encouraging comment on AGP#269 Andries, I don't generally build with any idea of creating a particular sound, but I do always trying to build something different by using various scale lengths, tunings, string gauges, pickups and timbers etc., so!, sound wise, whatever happens, happens!!, as far as a particular theme, most of my builds these days are from recycled materials, which I think create their own theme (or look). "Cheers" from a very wet "Sunshine Coast Qld" AGP (aka Alan Payton)
Thanks Andries. She does so much for me and asks for nothing in return that I'd probably be in some kind of supported housing without her. I'll get her to listen to the dedication when you post it. No need to thank us for the comments though. Always enjoy us some A. D. Eker around here so all comments are given in truth. Keep up the awesome!
Hi Andries, I think something may have been lost in translation with my comment on your video. I liked it and "go on with your bad self" is an expression meant to be positive. Bad=Good in this case and was a play on words based on that video. Apologies for the confusion, I was trying to be supportive.
You are welcome Andries. Keep the good music coming, my friend. Indeed way up and way down and contrast is effective all in one song. Go with the Muse wherever she wishes, she doesn't let us down most days!
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...

AHA! Yes, I have been on that site before myself... thought the pic looked familiar. Cool, thanks much Andries! -Glenn
Yeah Andries, that should have read bindlestiff which is an old name for a hobo. The bindle was the sack on the stick.

Hey Andries, that track is in G and I'm playing a C harp. I think it would be cool if you changed up the lyrics, but that's up to you.
