Thanks! Yep, new fiddle! It was built by a luthier in south Africa.
It’s good to be back!

See, that’s why, I can hear the train whistle from 100s of miles! :wink:

Yup, I thought so, looked like one of those Murray Kuun’s instruments you demo’d last year. Well then, big congrats :slightly_smiling_face::slightly_smiling_face::+1:t2::+1:t2:!! I’m sure you’re enjoying the daylights out of it!

It is exactly that!! It’s the fiddle I had demoed, and I got a really good deal on it!

I’m getting about ready to get my recorder out again.

I might start recording some useful licks & ideas I want to remember & might post on another site.

I am wondering if anyone might be interested in me posting them here also…

Yup, always good to have new ideas to watch/hear!

Well, haven’t gotten to any licks yet, but thanks to @Michael_Mark I got things set up to record.

As long as I was set up, I threw this together…

I crammed three breaks worth of licks into two breaks…a bit overkill, but I was feeling lazy & didn’t want to do anything longer. Kept everything down to just 2-3 takes.

No fancy editing or engineering…just straight into the built-in mics in the machine…@ChrisWms

Well, I tried deleting all my Clype files to make room because they told me my account was full, but they still want money now to upload and I don’t like the platform enough to pay for it, so we lost what I had there on this thread…oh well…can’t win them all,

Nice wheel hoss! Had started working on that one back in Oct, but slacked off. Thanks for the remind :grin:.
It figures clyp clipped off at ‘i wonder where you are tonight’ I really really liked that one. I did check out their svc for sharing audio files but couldnt find the free version (maybe it’s gone now), so never signed up.

thanks!

Yes, the free part is gone. It’s not expensive at all for the basic membership…$2-3/mo…But they only use credit card…I’ll just use YouTube I guess.

Same here, not big on signing up for recurring charges on a card…
