I just posted a new video of a tune of mine on Weissenborn. I'd love for you all to see it.

Thanks,

Thanks guys.

Larry, the tunings I mainly use are based on open D. The 7th string for this guitar is tuned to a low B, so normally it is at BDADF#AD (low-high). However, for this piece I needed an o ...

I have been wanting to work up an arrangement of this song for a while now. It is such a sweet tune. I published a video of it today on YouTube - I would love for your all to see/hear it.

That is very cool!

I just received a Bradley capo for my 8-string weissenborn. The guitar sounds better with the capo on! I love this thing - I may be playing everything up a half step from now on to get this tone!

Now that...was cool!

Sweet! Just bought it and my mood has lifted - just what I needed today!

Does anyone know if Reece offers these on a regular basis annually or throughout the year or when the next one might be?

I know this thread is years old, but I would love to hear his playing. If there is any chance Basil or someone else could re-upload the Tapa Room recordings I would be very grateful.

Thank You!

Even though it is not my main guitar and I hardly get to play it live. I would have to say it is my Rickenbacher NS. It feels like I am playing a piece of history to me. So much fun to play a guitar w ...

That was awesome!

So Good! Thanks for sharing these.

That's very cool Roy!

Amen to that! One of my first guitar instructors as kid would have me stand and play to "feel the groove and shake my butt!" as he put it.

Really nice Mike. I appreciate you sharing as much as you do - it is always inspiring. I like your approach you mention about practicing by just playing tunes - I need to do more of that. I'm looking ...

So Super Cool!

I hope it is ok to let you all know that I am selling my Fender Deluxe in the For Sale: Steel Guitars section.

Thanks,
Dan

Why the harsh comment Ray?

Newcomer or not, Jean is just asking a question. It sounds to me like he cares quite a bit for this guitar, doesn't want to damage it, but just wants to make it more pl ...

.... about to start. Anyone else watching?

That is mighty cool!

Kevin, Mike, Brad (and Brad's wife) - Thank you! I appreciate the feedback and am really glad you are liking the project.

That's really cool. I look forward to getting the whole album. Are you on several tracks?

Again - very cool Mike. Great stuff to think about. I tend to blather on in my solos and end up saying nothing at all. The conversation idea is great. I recently saw a short video by Gary Burton where ...

I got a ton of mileage from an old Oahu square neck a few years back. It seems there are always some on ebay for pretty cheap. I paid a little more for mine and bought it from a reputable dealer to kn ...
