Uncle John

Double-edged compliments.  Not sure if it would go down well with the ladies... maybe some...... looks and fashion trends etc...

Preachin Blues - Son House

"Great stuff!  I use an ADOBE viewer to 'see" the video"

It runs, but not for all!  :-P

Hi Uncle,

now the vid works. Have fun with it!

Best regards!

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.

Sure Uncle John. I should have done a better sketch. :D)

Thanks Uncle John for thr link to knotlenny's leeson,  Great for some new to the 3 string CBG

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.

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.

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!!

Thanks John, likewise!

Thanks UC, I’ll leave my IOU in the petty cash pouch.  Good to see you’re still at it, old friend!

Thank you Unc. Left you a reply on my page. Wow is right. Humbled.

Thank you uncle John, The more I read about Dave the more of an amazing person he seemed to be.

Its always been an ambition  to play an instrument but work got in the way, now retired having been working with wood part of my life I can build and learn to play something I have created, its certainly got a grip on me.

kind regards Chris.

Thanks for the comments ,Uncle John.Wow I didn't even now I had a uncle John!?! Yeah that box is cedar and really old, the price of the cigars was 15cents , so must hand been a long time ago. Looks like you've used some old boxes too.

Dear UJ, I am a friend and neighbor of the late Dave Lynas, could you tell me where Dave would get his slim already fretted fretboards? I miss Dave so much, we would have coffee every morning. He would help me order whatever I needed. Could you help me with these frettboards that have the fretts already installed. Thanks UJ
