Grumpy Old Git CBG tuned DAda. Tarnished Lowe resonator cone, Mojobone Works slide.

Lots of tarnishing and aging. Propane torched fret wire, gray and black staining, aggressive sanding, mean growly strings.

Haha. Problem is I'm the boss. Alternate title is These Jokers I Hire Are Idiots!

Actually, I do have excellent employees.

LOL!   Great lyrics,  I like a love song.  That git has a gritty ring that matches the nice relic job.   Looks like you are having fun.   I like that kachunk sound you get at some points in the song.

Thanks Randy.  I changed tuning to DGdg this morning using the same EADG strings and I like it a little better than DAda.  The Mojobone Works slide sounds great on those wound strings and has the mean and ornery character I was after.

Great Sound Eric !!
