And you look a lot like him too, Jim!

Thanks Bug. Yeah Unc, it took me a long time to figure out I can't sing like Aretha Franklin or Luciano Pavrotti. I do a pretty mean Elvis though!

Jim, what you said about some songs being well suited for your particular style of croaking is absolutely true.  

I wish more of us here would learn that and find the songs that suit us.   There are a lot of songs I can't do.  That beautiful 'Wreck On The Highway' that RTZ did is an example.   The thing to do is find good songs we can sing and play.

Great dulcimer, I love this song too nice singing mate

Thanks for all the comments guys. Yeah Unc, some songs are well suited for my particular style of croaking! This is my first dulcimer build that wasn't of the "stick" variety and now I'm looking for more crates at the dump.
