I recorded this quick bluesy improv on my 1930 National and passed it over to a friend to experiment w his synthesizer. Didn't know where he'd take it - he took it to another planet LOL!!! Hope you enjoy it and thanks for listening,

Man i love the sound of that thing.
Comes alive in you're hands Geo.
Very cool!
Thought i had left a comment on this. Wonderful work on this Geo...fine playing and a tone that is like nothing else on Earth. You certainly created an incredible soundtrack/soundscape here. I think you could make a one string uke sound good...
Minimalist magic. Really captures the pain, sadness, and tragedy of all those poor folks who die at he hand of the self righteous. Great patient delivery of notes on that ol' National whose tone brings it all home.
Love the old time feel here and that bass line you weave into this musical tapestry. The changes are beautiful and some of the chords just a delight to the ears. The tone of the National is so unique. Fine post Geo.
What a cool, funky, jazzy, bluesy groove. Full of delicious chords and twists and turns. It's like an evolution of the Snap Blues. Creativity and talent shines! Good one Geo!
