Hello, I'm Sebastian from Berlin and I play steel guitar for around 10 years now. I made a new video: By The Waters Of Minnetonka on my National Tricone (1931) My arrangement is close to the version of Jim and Bob, a fantastic Duo from the 30s. A Highbass Tuning (Hi to low E C#A E C# A) Hope you like it !😊 Aloha 🌴 Sebastian |

Lovely, am still smiling after listening to your guitar. How could anyone hear this and not be happy?

Hi Sebastian,
You have learnt to play that piece of music very well. Excellent!
I have studied Jim & Bob's recordings for around 35 years and unlike many people that have watched your video, I know every centimetre and note of their recording of By The Waters Of The Minnetonka, and most of their repertoire.
You may be interested to hear that I have pitch corrected their recordings and that By The Waters of The Minnetonka was actually recorded closer to G# than it was to absolute A. Their recording sounds more real in G#
I am sure you are aware that I wrote some of the liner notes for the Grass Skirt Jim & Bob album.
Thanks for sharing it. Lovely playing!
Shine On
Michael
