Thanks Derek

Thanks Andries. I'm pretty sure the CNC is just for wood. It really does a nice job on stuff like this.

Yeah, this was the 3rd take since I coughed too much on the first two. Almost made it to the end when the cough came this time!

Fine picking on your new wood top! Room has a nice hollow acoustic sound.

Thats probebly true, we tend to slowly grow to the style we subconciously like the best and pick up bits and pieces here and there to complete our own!  is  it  CNC for metal, or all wood Jim? looks verry pro must say! saw you smile abit for the cough tho!! Greeeeeettssszz  A.D.

Thanks Wade. I've seen One String Willie several times at the York Festival and am a big fan. Maybe his style is sub consciously rubbing off on me!

Thanks Vinnie, the looper might be as close as we ever get to having a clone to jam with!

Nice one. You look like you could be related to One String Willie!

Comment by Downtown Vinnie on December 30, 2017 at 9:43am

I hear ya.More gear often means more headaches.I go back and forth.The banjo has definitely got me more grounded as far as playing without a looper for sure.But ,If I could pick like you,I'd never use a looper..lol
