Thanks pick. That tulip still needs some work but the one in my studio is fully restored except for putting a whammy on the tail.

Thanks a lot Richard. I commented earlier that the end is my favorite part and I (for once) wasn't trying to be funny. Not too many hit songs have a chord progression like A,D,Dm, Ddim and it took me a while to figure those out on mandolin. One of the bands I play in hate that Ddim chord and are happier when I leave it out so I do since it's their gig. (But I put it in there for myself)

Thanks Dave. A bit too treble for my taste but I;m gonna wait to see how it blends with other instruments. My wife says I'm my own worst critic and I suspect she's right.

Whatever you do gents, don't miss the end! The song is a great cover Jim, it's been a while seen I've heard it, but it always makes me feel good. Great video song, awesome soulful ending.

I like that song Jim. We do that one often. Nice bright mandolin. Treble little thing.
