Thanks Milt. Doc's playing was a big influence on me even though I don't know if he ever recorded this song. Norman Blake did a good version of it and I was going for his feel on 3 instead of 6 strings.

I like it. Kinda got a Doc Watson feel.

Thanks Will, thanks Bruce. This is the fourth time I've used these pickups, one was a 4 pole, and they've sounded great on each build. Even on the git I made from an aluminum carpenter's level!

Good job. I recently put one of those pickups in a build and had great luck with it.

Comment by Will King on April 9, 2017 at 4:07am

Great singin' and playin'.  That pickup sound good.

Thanks Erasmo. I appreciate it.

Thanks Unc. I was trying to make a sadder bluesier version but it kept coming out like this!

Man, that is nicely played and sung.   Good happy version.
