Thanks for posting this video here, Skeesix! This is fabulous!!!! I had wondered what I was doing wrong and you answered all of those questions for me! I'll anxiously await your next videos! BTW - do you play CB Dulcimers or the Canjo? I just a one of each and would really like to see a tutorial.... especially on tuning.... and scales....

I wanted to post Skeesix's website link because she has so many resources on her builds, and especially on her hand-made pick-ups. I was really impressed with the tutorial that she did over on Scotty's site! It's great, easy-to-digest material and I want to encourage others to take a look! I'm not so afraid of winding my own pups now!
