Glad to hear you enjoyed it Ambrose! I wish you the best in 2022 also.

That's a good Slinger rendition Doug. Always liked this one. All the best for 2022.

It is!!! You are paying attention Kale, I’m impressed! The guitar body uses two plastic drink bottles. It’s not very loud, but sounds just fine plugged in. It needs the strap or it will slide out of your lap even easier than an Ovation with the rounded bowl body. It’s very light, looks like a pontoon boat, and Scott from the Cally CBG group suggested the name “pontune”! I liked the play on words.

Pontune chugger? That's a new one. Good on ya for changing it up.

Thanks Uncle John! This a a favorite for me too. I tweaked the arrangement this year and removed some chords to make it easier to play. Some of the Christmas Carols are ambitious.
