Default Scarborough Fair/Greensleeves

Been working on my Fender Gemini II beater guitar for a while: shaved top and back braces, crowned and leveled the frets, installed nut and saddle, made small sound ports, mew ebony pins, enlarged the pinholes, sanded the fretboard for smoother playing.

I was pretty pleased with the way it sounds for a $150 guitar so I thought I record two quick English classics.

I added a tiny bit of EQ and mild reverb.

I had to extract the link from your post to hear it. It was broken in your post (I’m using Tapatalk Pro).

It sounded very pretty though.

Edit: the link seems to work fine on my Android phone, just not on the iPad.

The first linked worked for me However ...
Did you know that if you you use the AGF Youtube sharing button ( second from right in upper tool bar) You can have the youtube player open right in your post

First click the "Share" button below your video player on your YouTube page and copy the address

Then in your OP on AGF ,,, click the AGF Youtube button and it will open with the youtube tags and a blinking cursor between them.
Then just hit the paste command to share address from you youtube share option between the Youtube tags
Then then highlight and delete everything in the address from the forward slash(/) including the forward slash and towards the the left .

The Youtube player will open in your reply with no need to click a link simply hit the play (white triangle) icon

So from this share address from Youtube.--- https://youtu.be/zDNvO0s78ns --- pasted in between the the youtube tags, just make it into this only this part zDNvO0s78ns

and you will get this

That's how I used to do it but for some reason, it was giving me errors so I just posted a link. I appreciated it though.

Excellent job of playing this -- very enjoyable. Nice to see you back on the AGF! I see you've grown a beard!

Cool!

Thanks, Glenn. Good to hear from you. Yeah, I did not have time for hair and makeup so I grew a beard and put on a hat
