Just to share my attempt at Willie McTell's "Mama T'aint Long for Day" on my twelve string. This is a piece that he did on the six string originally...

Very well done... it wasnt till it was over when I zoomed in on the headstock... the sound had me thinking you were playing an old stella harmony...very authentic tone for a newer Fender...

An excellent approximation of Willie McTell's guitar and vocal styles and you've pretty well nailed it, I'd say. Very, very good. Well done Harriet  |

Thanks very much Blind Drunk and Fredcapo . Fredcapo, I like the tone of this acoustic/electric guitar as well, I've found it it to be recording friendly and does not need to be retuned very much. I picked it up - after 4 months and it was pretty much in tune. It was shepherded by a punk-rock musician Tim Armstrong and I think it came out pretty good soundwise. |

Your playing and singing is reel, and the recording is excellent... Im confident that George Wein would hire you in a second to play at the fest. edit: If your interested... fpi-no.com/georgewein.html |
