    Great to see that all foot stompers that are angled are hard on the muscles I thought it was me thanks for the clarification
    Great show keep them coming
    All the best Trevor

    I'd love to try this out and see how different pickups effect the tone, should be interesting with a big piece of sheet metal on top of it.

    So generous. That was great to give the foot stomper away like that.
    I think I'll ask my welder friend to help me build a John Henry. Thanks for showing that thing off!

    I have been fascinated with the John Henry. I tinker and have made several canjos, cbgs but have never ventured to try to make the JH. Is there any way you could put out some basic measurements? I see others have tried and have not really had any luck. I was looking at the proportions and going to go from there but some basics would be super helpful.

    hmm, cheap bass pickup .. man you just gave me an idea. BTW thanks for the hint with making it flat .. it aint hard at all, rather easy fix to your design. What preamp did you use there? And how do you power it - battery or some power source powering also your pedal board?

    • @ShaneSpeal
      @ShaneSpeal  2 роки тому

      There’s no preamp or power. Its all passive. Imagine slapping strings on an electric guitar that’s plugged in. That’s the concept.

      @@ShaneSpealso its just normal tone & volume knobs as in any other cigarbox, ok got it ... even easier setup than i thought it might be
