Einar, I am curious what amp you are using? Is it that fender twin behind you? Sounds so good! I have been listening to these tunes lot, I really love how your band has interpreted these songs.

Daniel, it's an early 70s Vibrolux with the original Oxford speakers. I had more powerful Webers in there for years but the Oxfords sound really sweet when high volume isn't needed. I used an Xotic EP booster on Flamingo and Mapuana and a JR Barnyard from The Nocturne Brain on Song of the Islands and Hawaiian Ripple. Thanks again.

Very cool!

Can I get what tuning you are using for 8 string Clinesmith fry pan.

I have a fry pan and a cast aluminum Bigsby style and I tune them to C13, A6, B11, C#min7, D9, E9, E13, C6/A7….depending on the tune.

What gages are you using for 8 string C6/A6?

Thanks!

I could hear her singing before I freed her from the box. What a voice! Congrats Todd on the new shop. This Elektro is a perfect compliment to her husky brother. — gotta go practice

Thanks All

Beautiful pair! How would you describe the difference between the two sound wise?
