That’s very kind. Glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks Jerrel. Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for commenting. I’m good, hope you are well also.

Thanks Richard, much appreciated.

Thanks for listening. I assume you are referring to a bowl-back guitar (Oudtar).

@@johnwilliamson6846 Yes, I am referring to both the oud and the guitar together; this instrument combines them. Additionally, your playing is wonderful; keep up the great work.

Thanks very much.

Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it. The mando’ is a Fylde Signature Touchstone.

Thanks very much, glad you enjoyed it.

Glad you enjoyed it. Many thanks for listening and commenting.

Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for listening and commenting.

Thank you for listening and commenting. Glad you enjoyed the music. I wish you well with your desire to play mandolin.

Thanks Thomas. Yep, great tune, I’m sure you’ll be enjoying playing it.

Thanks for the appreciation and comments. I’m glad you enjoyed the tune and the mando.

Thanks for expressing your appreciation…glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks very much. Glad you enjoyed it. I recall recording this, and my foot tapping makes the video shake a little, which adds to the ‘vibrating’ feel of the sound.

Thanks very much, glad you enjoyed it. No, not a Seagull S8…it’s a vintage (1919 ish) mandolin made by Vega (known mainly for making banjos)…due to its design (the shape of the back) it is known as a ‘cylinderback’.

Thanks very much. Glad you enjoyed it.

Thank you for your complimentary comments ‘Marvin’.

@@johnwilliamson6846 U R welcome 🙏

Glad you enjoyed the tune and the playing…thanks for your positive encouragement 🤝

Glad to hear it, David. Thank you.

Many thanks, Christian.

Thank you very much, glad you enjoyed it.

Thank you, Toomas, glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks very much, David.

Thanks, John…glad you enjoyed it.

Much appreciated, Frank, glad you enjoyed it.

Thank you, glad you enjoyed. The mandolin was made by Phil Davidson, a UK based luthier. Although a relatively basic model, it had good tone…though I no longer own the instrument.

Many thanks…my pleasure to share. I look forward to getting to stuck into playing/recording/publishing more music videos 😉

Muchas gracias. Me alegro que hayas disfrutado. Saludos 🤝

Thank you, Mike… I’m sure you had a justified reason at the time for selling the instrument 😉

Agree David, great tune…and thanks for your comments.

Thanks very much, John. I will need to adapt to the ‘ringing’ of the Shippey.

It's certainly a good sounding mandolin.

@@johnonmandolin Thanks

Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for commenting.

I’m glad you think it “sounds lovely”, and I hope the video helps you learn the tune. For clarification, this is a vintage mandolin and the damage to the top was done before I purchased it. However, I accept that sometimes I play a little too near to the bridge/too far from the centre of the hole…I shall try to be more conscious of this/rectify it where it would help with the tone of the instrument relevant to the tune being played.

@@johnwilliamson6846 must apologise, am really sorry, i should not be posting before i eat properly - this is really my own worst problem, something i am still trying to fix, after years of practising. i really like your work, particularly your timing and articulation, very alive.

@rewIndustry No problem. We’ll aim to continue to develop respectively 😉

Thanks very much, glad you like the tune and the instrument…It wouldn’t have been an expensive banjolin new, and I also struck lucky having picked it up at auction for a very reasonable price.

Glad you liked the tune, and thanks, as always, for commenting. Use the following links for some info regarding the history of the tune: nigelgatherer.com/tunes/tunes/H/HauHo.html and nigelgatherer.com/tunes/tunes/H/HauHo.html (read through the comments below the music at thesession).

Thanks, Richard…much appreciated.

Thanks very much, glad you enjoyed it.

Grazie. Sono felice che ti sia piaciuto e ti ringrazio per il commento.

Excellent! Great to hear. Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for commenting.

Many thanks…I see that it’s 3.5 years since I published this one!

Thank you. Yes, it is a Fylde Signature Touchstone…beautifully made and a bright, ringing tone. One thing to note is that the scale length is longer than is usually the case…which, with a slightly wider neck width overall, provides more space for your fingers….BUT the reach is also correspondingly longer (and my hands/fingers are on the smallish size).

My pleasure to share…glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for commenting.

Thank you Frank 🤝

I agree, Aidan, this old mando does have a sweet tone. As for my playing, you are too kind with your comments, but thank you very much.

Thank you very much for commenting. Hope you are well.

Thank you…glad you enjoyed both!

Thanks very much, glad you enjoyed it.
