Default McKnight Guitar Performance Debut

My debut with my McKnight out playing. It was a podcast I did last week. The audio is OK for a podcast, the guitar sounds much better in person and in the hands of a better player.

Songs:
Legend of the Parking Lot
A brand new song, maybe not even complete yet Free Trade
Cornbread and Black-Eyed Peas
and my new Christmas song, Christmas Time in My Hometown

I listened to your new Christmas song toward the end of the podcast. That McKnight sounds wonderful and I enjoyed the song.

Hey BBWW (are you Billy Boy?) - Which one are you? The first or second performer?

Jay - I think both you and your McKnight sound wonderful.

Thanks for sharing,

BBWW is not Billy Boy. Billy Boy owns his another McKnight guitar.

He is Jay, the second player.

I added it to the McKnight You-Tube and I will pass it on to the other McGit customers.

Thanks for the clarification Mary. I knew from Build Threads that Billy Boy had a McKnight and Jay's username has 'BB' in it.

I just watched it again - the McKnight has a huge voice! Even on my laptop speakers. It sounds fantastic with the capo and retains clarity.

Is your first song in non-standard tuning? Drop D or something?

You would need to watch the You-tube site to know what some have recorded. Our guitars are used in recording studios. I'm pretty sure it's not the first to be in Drop D, but I can't tell you who plays what.(Sorry)
