Does anyone have any sound clips or can you direct me to recordings of a Weissenborn played solo (or with very little accompaniment)? |

What do you need it for?
The last track on Lindley's "Win This Record" is a solo instrumental, recorded pretty straight (no effects and probably mostly mic not pickup).
Jerry Douglas' album "Slide Rule" has a couple of solo Weissenborn instrumentals, one of them has a subtle rain effect in the background as I recall...
Bob Brozman albums might be a good place to check for solo Weissenborn stuff, since he tends to record the sound of his instruments pretty faithfully. I don't know enough of his output to be more specific though. There's an extended solo instrumental opening to a Hawaiian Medley on Bob Brozman's "Live Now" CD, but it's on his short scale Kona, not a Weissenborn.
That's all I can think of off the top of my head.

There's also Ben Harper's debut cd "Welcome To The Cruel World" which is mostly acoustic. |

I'll send you an .mp3 of my friend, Thomas, noodling around on my weissenborn as I was testing out Cubase. It is a mix with a microphone and a pickup the world pickup.
I have other soundfiles, but they have singing and/or other instruments with it.
