| Thanks for those kind words guys. Yea George she sounds pretty good. I can't get the sound that I am looking for though. I am using that 1000 and I have the lows all the way off and the highs wide open. I can't seem to get the highs I am looking for. I am not crazy about that Hunbucken pick-up either......must be wound heavy.........William |

| Great job as usual. We all call this tune Danny Boy, but actually unless you sing it, it's Londonderry Air. That's a traditional Irish tune and someone wrote the Danny boy lyrics to it in the early 1900's. Either way, William did a nice job and I thought the tone was working just fine. |

| Thanks Jim for the comment. Thank you to Rick also who provided me with that GREAT BIAB track for "Danny Boy" or "Londonderry Air" or even "He Looked Beyond My Faults And Saw My Needs". It was a wonderful track what ever you want to call it ! It was great Rick.......Thanks guys.......William |

Great job William. I notice you rest your pinky on the guitar body. I do that on 6 string and have been told it's bad form. To heck with them.
On a side note; on my birthday as a wee lad, my parents would take me, seems like every year, to a Hofbrau with an Accordion player. Then they would PAY that sucker to sing that song to me. I was so embarrased and horrified that I still hate that song with a passion. Still, good job. I won't pay you though to play it at my birthday.
Danny

Danny - You were such a luck child. I had to listen to Porter and the Wilburn Bro.  |
