Killer sound. This blows my first cbg out of the water. All the rest of them, too. Looking forward to more.

 It's been said , but it's worth saying again ......." Great first build and great playing " .   Really liked the Led Zepplin riff .  I'll be "trying" to play that all day now !

You certainly know how to play that thing. Well done on both the making and playing.
