Thanks for the pics, Rodger! I'm glad you got that dread this year. It should compliment the one you bought previously rather well. I played it Saturday morning and really enjoyed its tone. It has a lot of presence and deep deep bass. It's a great singalong guitar.
I was really impressed with Ross's new guitar as well. I love the tone of Carpathian and that guitar has a double top of Carpathian and Italian spruce. He let me play it for a bit and it's got a sweet tone well suited for fingerstyle. I approve of the burst on the top as well.

BTW, check your PMs regarding tabs for Chet Atkins' arrangement of Vincent that I played at the OM that your wife liked.

Chet style ... Oh yes, I like that. Master that, Ross and at McJam 2018 you and Amy will be the showcase class to teach the others a little. I'll be the one in the corner as the easy listener!

Sorry to bump an old thread, but I did PM a link for that arrangement Mary. If he tunes that guitar to DGDGBE and fiddle around with it with the melody in his mind I think he'll surprise himself. Sometimes changing tuning or putting on a different set of strings - over even having a good fingernail day will cause inspiration to hit.

It's all good, Neil.
I spent this morning looking at my copy of the #10 McJam book. Already looking back and wondering where the month has gone.
