Steve great to meet you too. Still trying to connect people I met with people on here. I have just one mic. It's in a nice old Altoids tin. Doubt I'll be making any more for a while as the telephone inserts are hard to find. I'd be looking for £25 on it if you're interested. You need to get your mouth right up to them to use them but they make great harp mics. I have a photo of the Altoids one here altoids mic cheers
Hello mate, great meeting you too. I think a great time was had by all. If only I could remember it... Well done on winning the guitar too. It'll be worth millions in the future...
Hi Steve - Yours is one of the few CBN handles that I've managed to remember from the festival. Great to meet you, and to see those excellent CBGs that you've made - and well done for winning the charity auction last night. I had a great time and hope that our paths will cross again, maybe at next year's event.
thanks for the comment on the marvel oil can 3 stringer,it has good tone but not very loud cause its a small can,so i will do more work to it to be able to amplify it yep.
Steve the strum stick has had strings on it and it really sounded nice. I gave it to my son, he can play, I can't. Now it is back for a little repair, the tail piece came loose.
Mucky player - you'll do for me. I see you're in Driffield, do you ever get out towards Ilkley near Leeds? If you wanna drop in sometime you're welcome.
Yup steve it is a wah pedal, a cry baby one !!!
gotta love those cry baby !!!
i have one build with big F hole and i did them with a dremel tool,
carefully drill a hole and the sand the rest with the dremel tool,
took time but love the result of a big F sounding hole and it sound great aswell as it look nice !!!
howdy steve, i usually try to do a sound check on a build after its finished.i will do a soundcheck with this zino tri-can resonator, as soon as i get it finished.hopefully i will finish it in a few days. thanks for the comment.
