Hi Robbie. You're nuts man! I use finger picks and lay it flat. It's actually a round neck resonator, but I found this thing that fits over the nut and raises the strings off the neck so you can play it flat. I use one of those Dunlop Lap Dawg tone bars as far as the slide. This song was just messin around so I didn't worry about all the mistakes. Hope you liked it! Thanks for checking it out.



Yeah I have a square neck and I lay it in the lap and play it with a piece of steel and play it with the finger pics too :-) If you've played guitar for a long time, it's a pretty easy transition. Fun instrument!

I enjoy it too. Definitely a fun instrument! Love the sound. When I recorded this song mine was pretty much brand new. I've noticed over the last couple years that the tone of it has evolved and gotten twangier. Is that a word???

Good stuff. I've always had a soft spot for the blues. Everything sounds great. I might be tempted to add a bit more saturation if your really going for that old 20s vibe. I love the sound of some of those records. It would be cool to have that needle on the record kind of sound. Surely there is a vst for that?

Thanks Clint! I could definitely see some saturation adding to the vibe. Thanks for the feedback. Fxpansion used to have a plug called "vinyl" that you could use to add needle sound and even warped record sound. You could adjust the intensity and depth of the scratches too. I had it about 10 years ago, used it once, and somehow through the years it disappeared. Thanks for checking out the song Clint!
