Well, thank you Karel.  I found it a privilage to comment on your talents.  Incredible.   I can only dream.

Hi Terry,thank you very much for your nice comment.

Karel 

Thank you, Cindy.

Wow Terry!  I just listened to this - sounding great!!! 

Nice tune.

Why, thank you Maria.

I really love my all spruce McSpadden.   I suspect you love yours too.

Terry that was great!! You have a great style and i love that McSpadden. Really nice. What kind of wood is it!!

Love when you go back and forth with the melody in the melody strings and then the bass etc.

Nice Job!!
Maria

Thank you Marg.

Enjoyed the song and the different octaves, nice playing.

Strumelia,  that was just too easy.  I've learned a lot in the past 3 days, from you.  

Thanks once again

Hi John H

     That's okay pal.  Perhaps I am just slow, I should have caught that one.   Hey, just for your info, Terry Wilson is a pretty famous name.   There was a T.W. who was an actor (cowboy) on the old TV show "Wagon Train".  I think he was the assistant wagon master.    

     Not only that, one of the most respected Bluegill fly tyers in the USA is, you guessed it, T.W.   

     And so it is, John H.

My clumsy compliment related to your playing Terry !!!

Well thank you Cynthia.   I probsbly have more tectonic trouble than anyone.  I guess I spend to much time in the sun and on the river.  Water brain.  Maybe flute brain.  Or maybe Gabapentin brain.

Anyways,  good to hear from you girl.  I just watched your video from 10 months ag . Careless love.  I love it!!!

By by,

Terry 

Hey Terry. Real nice chord work on this. Love that dulcimer. I was just playing my Kala travel tenor this morning for the first time in a few months, AND it was still in tune. I know you didn't keep yours, but I still kind of like mine. When I private message you I get this: The user you are sending to is not accepting Private Notes at this time. Maybe Lisa can help you with this, I'm not tech savvy enough to help.

Strumelia,  thank you,  and to all others,  for your kind words.

Terry, I guess I meant the 18th fret.  It was hard to count them in the video images.

You're right of course!

I remember when I was making fret decisions on my custom Galax dulcimer (about a lifetime ago now).  I wound up calculating that I might actually need an 18th fret one day if I got better at playing, but it was suggested to me that I'd more than likely never play that high.  Well, I had those highest frets put in anyway, on both my dulcimers...I'm stubborn that way.  

Anyway, indeed I DID wind up using those frets way up high there, when playing fiddle tunes in a higher octave for variety.  I've always been glad i opted for getting those 'unlikely' frets.

You've shown here how great and how fun they can be!

Interesting Strumelia.  While I have never owned a custom dulcimer, but if that time should ever pass, it would have a minimum of 18 frets.

I go up to 18 on this song.  Couldn't imagine having less.  Well, I guess I could.  I have two student models with 13 and 15.

PS:  Thanks  for your assistance getting my video posted.  "Copy and paste. "  Hopefully my non-tech mind will remember this.  

Well, I don't know, John.  My dulcimer adventure began 04/2012.  I believe I joined F0TMD 06/2012.

Hmmm......I've been away a while.........do we have a second Terry Wilson with us these days ?

thanks for sharing !!
