Here is a link to my first weissenborn tune recording. Many thank's to Steinar for hosting the tune for me.

This tune is a simple arrangement of the Jimi Hendrix song, "Little Wing". Recording chain was a Zoom MRS4 digital recorder, Rode NT3 mic. My weissenborn "Annie" was recorded from it's k&k mini pickup system and at the same time, milked with the Rode mic. An Ellis Stomp box was also used for some rhythm accompliment.
The tuning is a minor open D. That is DADFAD.
If you would like to take a look at my "Annie" here are two pic's. I would like to thank my friend and local guitar maker Taffy Evans for making this beautiful instrument fo me. She has a Cedar top, New Guniea Rosewood back and sides, Western Australia Jarrah fretboard and bridge.
