Give Me a Sign - 3 String Cigar Box Guitar

Recorded this direct to the camera microphone so the mix and audio quality are a bit lousy - but you get the idea.

Playing my newly built 3 string that I finished a couple of weeks ago. Features one of Elmar's excellent low profile 3 string pups (klangbox.at).

This short and sweet tune is a new one I'm working on for next week's shindig in Devon. Here are the lyrics...

Give Me a Sign

You're lookin good there honey
You're lookin fine
Like the way you shake that thing
Won't you be mine.

You got your eyes on me
When I look at you
Wanna get you home tonight
See what you can do.

My motor's runnin fast
I'm on the line
Gonna put my foot on the gas
If you give me a sign...

Tone;

 

I like it.  Being a hot rodder, I love the reference to drag racing.  The tune is cool and so is the CBG.
