Hey Harrison,
Have my Ghetto Shorty, it is awesome!
Once a get t une goin I'll post it up.
Hopefully your amp arrives this week too!
Cheers,
MArk.
Hail and well met! And thank you for the friending. Some lovely stuff you're building.
Thanks for the friendship Harrison, and the kind words....love your ghettoshorty..nice work!!
Harrison,
A question about strings for the lapsteel...what tuning do you want? And do you want round or flat wound? This will help me choose which kind/guages to use. Thanks
Hi Harrison,
A few months ago when I first saw your Ghettolele I was so inspired by it that I sent you a message saying I hope you don't mind copy cats.
Well, I finally got around to building my own.
My uke is simply a copy of a Danelectro Convertable. Your Reso ukes are so much more.
I posted some pics today.
Thanks again for the inspiration.
Mr. Harrison, Thank You for the warm Welcome. I find it hard to believe that all of that Ghetto magic has been majestically crafted by a Troll! Ya do live under da bridge don ya? fer cryin out loud, ya shur got sum talent der buddy
