It's basically done. Still experimenting with where best to locate the bridge, and may want to scoop out a section of the fingerboard near the gourd -- because it's a bit tight in there when playing.
My high-school student/co-maker was on her way over to take possession of it, so I quickly plucked out a few tunes. Not great quality video, but it does give some idea of the instrument's sound.
Shenandoah
Worried Man Blues -- I could see the student and her mother arriving while playing this, and they rang the doorbell just at the end.
That's really cool Ken. It has a nice sound to it!
ReplyDeleteThanks, James. It was a lot of fun.

ReplyDeleteThank you, Michael! It was a kick to play, too.
