Thanks all! I'm really intoxicated by Jon's cbg. This really is a collaborative effort! My 3 year old named it for me! <3 And yes it is a necktie strap! Lol!

Awesome song Paul! (Is that a necktie strap?) Love the tone and especially the bell like notes you get near the end!

Thanks everyone for the comments on the git, and thanks Elmar for the very cool pickup! This video is truly a collaborative project from CB Nation. :)

 

And another Flatpup 4 arrived in the mail today to go into the next build - yay Flatpups!

Good on John P. ~ bew-tee-full git ~ with credit to Elmer too.  Paul, lovely tone, playing and song.

WOW! I love it! Can't wait to post up the distorted songs. It has killer sustain when distorted. Thanks!!

Paul, I'm happy to read your comment! The Flatpup 4 on your git is n°18 of my production; meanwhile I there are 110 since March ;-)

Paul. That was great. Lovely sound and super playing. You seem really at home with that instrument. Eagerly awaiting more.

nice feel to that!!
Comment by neanderpaul on September 28, 2011 at 4:49am
That's your pickup?! Did you make this one?! Or is it your design that Jon used? It is PERFECT. It leaves nothing to be desired. when clean it's tasty. When it's cranked with distortion it is PERFECT. Even when the strings are silenced and NEAR the amp it is PERFECT. I have a semi distorted song and a more distorted song to post soon.
