Sounds great, Richard. Beautiful clean tone on this git. Pretty git too! Nice video as well.

Thank you Danny! The artwork was Dave Lynas creations. I ordered a couple of his great ceramic slides, he has artwork on the slides and a great drawing on the package. Appreciate the compliments on the effects and guitar playing, thanks Danny!

Wow that was amazing Richard. The art work and the visual effects were great. The CBG sounded amazing also

Thank you very much Jeff! I feel this one really reflects authentic CBG fun with Uncle’s guitar and Dave’s slide. Of course there’s my video antics, some crazy still leaks out ha!

Dave, you are so very welcome and thank you! You make a darn good slide, unique, attractive, collectible, and most importantly, playable! These two really fit perfectly! The train shot glass is way cool! Not a drinker, but I see myself sliding with it on my lap Diddley ha! The art on the package is really great, love it! Very happy you enjoyed the vid, it was fun to play and put the photos together. Your a kind generous man Dave, thanks my friend!

Isn’t Dave amazing! An artist and craftsman he is Uncle! I played his first slides pretty hard and often, they’re still in fine shape. The Partagas was like a wild stallion at first, a great instrument to learn fretless three string play.  Unless I really cranked up the volume and distortion, I sounded terrible. Gradually I’m learning to play with more touch than pound, and I’m breaking it into the fine playing CBG you made it to be. Forty years of fretting, a no fret neck was like if I were blind and walking without a cane. I’m one old stubborn fart, I think the guitar is breaking me into an ok player on it. Always, thank you Uncle, you knew the guitar would win out and make a slider out of me!

So very entertaining on all counts .

Way cool Richard. Wow! I’ve watched three times. Yanis loved it too. Thanks friend. .. Dave

Mighty fine art.   Oh and slide.   That Partagas sounds warm and good.  I think you have the slide thing down and slip sliding away.    Cool vid, Rich!

Excellent Erasmo, very much appreciated! Ahhh, you remember the lap Diddley  fiasco Ha! I believe it was Dave who gets credit for the Nation’s first triple slide play video. I did a double slide and a cheap screwdriver. I remember you advising me to get a Canadian brand screwdriver......the good old days of exploration and bad taste! I’m tempted to shatter Dave’s record, I do have four slides......don’t get me started! Thank you Erasmo!
