A quick bit of foolin' around with a riff from the "Pirates of the Caribbean" Theme, using my fave Didley Bow: AGP #362 - ''Diddy Mahog''
It's not as up tempo as the real thing, but it's as fast as the Ham Fists & Fingers can manage without stuffin; it up any more than I already have :-D
A 3 String attempt will be posted tomorrow :-)

"Thanks Nancy Kat", that looks like a "Class A Pirate Cat", still got 2 eyes and probably doesn't have a Peg Leg, but!, seems to have lost the Parrot from its shoulder.  :-D

"Thanks UJ", Yep Cool maintenance free Brickwork (no painting required), had to clean up the clutter of Gits, and relegate several of them to the storage shed to make room for the chair and the skinny Git Player!, and yes Shorts, standard daytime apparel 365 day of the year in my part of the world, it was a bit cooler than the Temps we've having lately when I done this Vid, but still had a fan directed at me when filming :-)
