In-Ster Mental. Black Cat Bone fretless CBG made by Andries Eker in Holland. Normally tuned GDG, but here the G is bumped up to A, the D is left alone and the small G is tuned down to an F#, giving a nice open D.

Nice play Uncle. Loving your Iowa sax. Black Cat’s Bone sounds Cool!

Thanks, Alan.  It sounds good in GDG and AEA also.  Same strings for all those.  Thanks for the spelling correction, Mr. Picky

As always a quality performance 'UJ', don't know what the Andries build sounds like in open G, but the ADF# tuning sounds mighty fine to me, and I don't mean to be judgemental but I think you misspelt In-Ster Mental, I'm sure the correct spelling is In-Stir Mental  :-D

Thanks, Rich.  This could be tuning to try on any of your 3s.

In-Ster Mental indeed! Uncle, A D’s Black Cat Bone, the dress hat, D’s ceramic, and Iowa sax is a great mixer, straight to the mental! Name that tune....Robert Johnson  on the second note.

Hunh.   Wax drum recording sound.  Once I cleaned the wax out of my ears, I kind of get that.  And like it fine.   Thanks, Jim.

Yup Unc, you got that wax drum sound real good! Good sounding git from Andries.
