Original by me played on a 3 string cigar box guitar in DGB tuning. Poplar neck. Vintage box. Piezo, but played unplugged here. 24 inch scale. DGB tuning.The 61 highway starts up in Bob Dylan country - near Hibbing, Minnesota and runs through Iowa, Missouri, Tennessee and Mississippi. It really is the home of the blues.Photo of git included in the comments - shown with my small collection of Dave Lynas slides.

  • I. just went back and listened to one of your videos, Ron.  You do fine.  Thank you, sir.  That DGB tuning makes it easy for me.

  • Nice video John, wish i could play as well. My poor wife is the only one willing to put up with my playing. Although she prefers I keep it in the shop.

  • Thanks, Glenn!

  • Sweet work Uncle John!! Really cool and great tone. -Glenn

  • Thanks, Kale.  It's a very nice finger chording tuning for, especially for someone like you that plays standard tuning 6.   

  • Cool git. I need to try that DGB tuning. It sounds great. Nicely written, sung, plucked and blown John.

  • Thanks, Alan and Doug.  :)

  • Good to see you back in action Uncle John! That red headstock really stands out; I like it. Nicely done!

  • Great to see you shoveled your way to the shed and finished Willy, sounds just fine unplugged, combined with a bit of Huffin' & Puffin' on the Iowa Sax :-)  

  • Thanks James and Andries.  It's good enough to keep, but will likely get gifted.  I had fun building it.  Yup, James. Most of mine need some kind of string guides.
