We all known that the Brits made most, if not all, of their 5-strings with the 5th through to the peg head. In some ways that makes sense with no peg on the side to go all wonky on you.....but more work routing the neck and some frustration if you're used to a neck peg. I'm thrilled to have this beauty come home to Boulder where it will be played on the Bricks where it was born.
	boulderfolkie says: 9/6/2012 12:48:48 PM The oddball ODE arrived last Saturday and is indeed pristine and original in every aspect except for head and strings. A bit hard to tune with SEVEN pegs up there onnthe top! Fun to play, though, with that superb aluminODE pot. I'll let everyone know what Chuck says when I have time to take her up to him. If you own an ODE with a zero fret, let me know so we can "zero" in on when Chuck started adding them.

MP3: What Would The Prophets Say? Linked by jbakervt 15 days ago: The religious basis of authority in the Middle East (or anywhere for that matter) is the source of a lot of suffering and is unsustainable. The violence is mostly perpetrated on women and children.
MP3: You'll Never Leave Texas Alive Linked by jbakervt 15 days ago: A sad murder ballad of a sort. Some murderers wear nice clothes and use pens and paper to kill and never see their victims.
MP3: Ten Years On Linked by jbakervt 15 days ago: A lament, written for the 10th anniversary of the Sandy Hook school shooting. Sadly there are still parents who are irresponsible or foolish, and parents who suffer as a result.
MP3: Shutdown The System Linked by jbakervt 15 days ago: The pursuit of money is alienating, enervating, and exhausting. Here’s a song of resistance to finance capitalism.
MP3: Take The Wheel Linked by jbakervt 15 days ago: A song about mentorship, inspired by my mentor and HIS mentors too, that takes the form of the story of a ship’s mate being “shown the ropes”. The old sea captain may also have been a long-neck player
