cheers Rob, Laurie and Delvero...mmm that documentary style was new for me. I felt a real idiot talking like that, but wanted to tell you all about it!! Ha yeah the Fens here a really flat a bit like the Delta...Ouse Blues, or Fen blues, lol, could either of them catch on as a genre maybe???

Nice one B. You will start to make 3 and 4 strings next.
Loved the video so keep turning them out. Very entertaining and a good sound from the DB.

How entertaining was that! Your 1st build is Great! I loved the documentary style you put in your video,gave a strong blues appeal to the music as you played and walked along your delta. And especially like the end with the rolling slide as if it had life of its own. Very well done,thanks for sharing.
