Default Crazy (a different arrangement)

After seeing MrEd's post a couple weeks ago, I thought I'd put together an alternative arrangement as part of my return-to-activity rehab. This version is in Drop D.

The guitar is a 1928 Gibson Nick Lucas Special. As usual, I'm using a Miktek CV4 tube condensor with no EQ, compression, or other effects (except 3% wet reverb).

Always good to see a 1920s NL in action and what a wonderful example! Thank you for posting!

Thanks guys. Upon listening again, I needed to flatten the low E string just a hair more as it tends to get a bit sharp when it's fretted while tuned down (unless I am careful to be really light with it). Ah well ...

I appreciate you taking the time to listen.
