A Little bit of music to go with the Zoot pictures.

This was recorded on the same little London Plane New Yorker I had pictures up of. Not me plating unfortunately, I can't play this well.

Russell,

That was most impressive. I clicked on the lofi just to expedite things, and was still amazed at what I heard. I'm not sure how you get all that sound out of that little box. I'm guessing he had the low E tuned down to at least a D, but the box supported the low notes beautifully. And the trebles we fat and rich.

Very nice!

Steve

Thanks Steve

I think I posted the other file he did for me while your power was out, so here it is if you want to have a listen.

Two Scottish Tunes

I can't believe that thing is a parlor, er - parlour guitar. Sounds great!
How is the soundboard braced? Any pics?
Thanks.

Bruce

I just checked through and I don't have a picture of the soundboard braced up. The Paterrn is a regular Martin one Two fingerbarces each side, X brace, Tone Bars etc, but the X is spread at the bottom to open up the top and the whole thing was built pretty light. The bridge plate as with all of my guitars is bigger than average.
