Classic Jesse Fuller song from 1954. Done as a test song for my rebuilt (top and neck set) home made tenor guitar. Big box tenor tuned DGBE (Chicago Tuning).

Wow! Thanks, Jim, Noisemaker, and Alan. I don't remember Janis Joplin's version of this song. I will see if it is on youtube.
Thanks, BQ. I think we should do better at giving credit to the song writers. Thanks, Buggy. It would be fun to hear you test ride it. Dennis and Jeff, I just played the git some - here on the next day after string it up and making the demo video. The looks suits me and it plays easy and I think I like the sound. It may be a mainstay. I am quite glad I rebuilt it.
Thanks, Dave. That top suits me. Now I will show you my back side. Thanks, Andries. I wish you and Dave and all the guys could sample this tenor and a few others. Here is my back side.

I like that big box sound.. proper F holes too...i once played one with a cat food tin in it that sounded great too from a lady in france.. or was it a painting tin?
Thanx for sharing uncle, most people don’t know who the heck Jesse Fuller is? Love your version uncle
Great sounding rebuild of the rebuilt rebuild, and a fine performance as usual, I personally like the Janis version :-)
