Hi Keni,

Have a look at the Build video that Shane Wagstaff has just posted, thats used one of my box burnings "the Indian"and should give you an idea of how they sound. "hope you like it".

Seems like only yesterday :-) Did you watch the whole trailer Keni? The folk singer had a pretty cool lookin foot tapping thingamajigger.

Did you ever see the movie Keni? I remember seeing the movie at our little theatre called the "Home Theatre" on main street here in Blair, Nebraska as a youngster. I wanted nothing more than to live that young mans lifestyle.

Thanks Keni I recently purchased your CD's 3-6 and just working through them - top man.

I'm finding it totally different than 6 string, its like starting again< but thoroughly enjoying it!!

Have a great Christmas.

Thanks Keni. Looking forward to getting to know the community. Certainly the place to be! Great profile too.

thanks for the comment keni

Hi Keni Lee, thanks for that info on strings and tunings - I'm going to give them a try and see how I go. I'm definitely keen on exploring the ones suited to delta blues

Hi Keni

Could we arrange to meet up in New Jersey or is there an outlet somewhere that sells your DVD's ?

Came all the way to NY to avoid paying postage on the purchase of your DVD's how can I get hold of them.

Leaving on the 5th Sept

Thanks Keni, I have just built my first ever 3 string CBG and now need to learn how to play it! I have dabbled in blues bottleneck on a 6 string over the years but like the simplicity and sound of the 3 stringer!

Kenny, You commented on my build from a gourd. Your comment means a lot to me. Especially that it is utilitarian. Thats exactly the way I go about all of the things I build. Love the shakers because of that. The only deffinition of true folk art. Thanks for your kind words. Now if I can only learn how to play. I love your site and music. Thanks again. Wooddini

The advice on strings and action is really helpful.  I'm just about to start on my Cohiba solid-body, so it's good to know what I'm aiming for - thanks !

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tablet and J4T Recording app.  It allows me to record the git and vocals separately since I still struggle doing both at once.  I will rehearse a bit more and do a video.  I think it must be the mp3 compression that screws it up  the levels are quite good before.  It could be the upload to the player here on CBN too I suppose.  Trial and error is the name of the game today.  So far, two errors.
