Made this real quickly loosely based on the plans Shane Speal posted. I'm pretty sure I'll re do this little instrument to try and make it a gourd fiddle wit...

Oh yeah Janis, picture a pottery bowl here rather than a gourd and you'll get an idea of what I was talking about a few days ago. The head would have to be attached differently but that's not too big of a deal.
Thanks Janis!
Jim, what a cool & unique build. I love it! Nice job. :)
Thanks Maddog. I'm in the process of making it into something a little more playable. It was a fun experiment.
Wow Jim, that lil' gem has some big sound.
As usual, I always enjoy your playing and singing.
Thank You Jim . I have just checked out Doc Watson and Chuck Levy. Great versions too .... I must start learning that banjo properly ....
Thanks Bristol. I first learned it on banjo from the Doc Boggs version. Then it got mixed in with Doc Watson's and a banjo/fiddle player named Chuck Levy's so it's a lot of influences. Yeah it goes by several names, sometimes Red Apple Juice gets put in instead of Red Rocking Chair.
Nice one Jim ! I know this tune as "Sugar Baby " by Dock Boggs and hearing it last summer was enough to make me buy a banjo ! Your version is great too . You are certainly a better Rebab player than I am a banjo player lol :-D
I know RTZ I feel so ashamed!
What self respecting cbg builder doesn't have a coconut?
