Tout simplement superbe !
Un look d'enfer... un son très "Roots of Delta Blues" digne d'un Robert (1) ...

This man’s name was Robert Johnson.

That does produce a very nice tone. I have a paint box which I am thinking of making into a four string bass. I hope it sounds as good as yours. Nice work.
