Love to hear you sing. Your TMB reminds me of the bridges in Paris, it's really really lovely, and with fiddle edges. Like the poetic arrangement of soundholes.
Dave, thank you for the comment, I sometimes feel old enough to be an "old field recording" lol. That TMB just seems to want to be played in a certain way! I was very lucky in that a FOTMD member, 'Bill from Indianna' sent me some beautiful poplar and offered a lot of encouragement during its making, I regard it as a shared instrument in that respect !
my regards

That's a very nice job! It doesn't get more traditional than that! Really nice!
Thank you for listening Lexie E !

I love to hear you sing John, and watching your strum and noter techniques have really helped me.
Thanks John for playing for us.
Thanks Cy, I notice that this was posted a few years back! I'ts theme would be more topical for me now !!!

(I quite like a drop of decent wine, lol)
I really love this in whiney old DGd, sounds like it's bagpipe tuned this way. Sweet.
Correction - I love the traditional way the sound holes are done.
Cybthia ! From the limited amount of research I was able to do from this side of the pond that 'poetic arrangement' seems to be traditional ?
thanks for making comment

John Henry, that is excellent!!! You do have a nice voice. I hope to hear more singing from you
John Henry, I like your singing and playing!
Great how you coordinate both!
And that's a very nice TMB you've got!
Thanks Ken, will give it a try in GDD. (could do with some of that heat you are having, been a lousy summer here!)
John
Nice jobJohn; I learned TT&T from Don too. Nice tune, I play it in "true" key of G Ionian - GDD

John Henry, i love it.
What a fine old traditional tone that box dulcimer you made has- in listening to it, one would never suspect it's a new instrument!
That's funny, your comment about your computer experiences. lol!
