thanks Thomas, yeah I totally agree about an old thing adding soul to a build..

Nice build Be. Sounds great and it's neat to find and use pieces of history like that. Adds soul to the process and the music.

thanks John, yeah it's great to use something that's been used like that. We have lots of old tools in the garage, from Grandparents that we couldn't bear to throw out, but I bought this one was from out the back of an antique shop. Think it cost £1..

   Mmm, yeah I love those sad minor keys!

Rough, rustic, simple and great.   Think of the hands that used it and the things that were built.   Generations, likely.  Great save and a good sounding instrument.  

Powerful minor key song and I especially liked the tapping.   Well done, but that music made me feel sad...  :(

That old level may take you down new roads.
