My New Old Guitar....

Well, I traded in the 1940 Hensel Artist for a ladder-braced 1925 Carl Fischer 'Kilauea' Hawaiian guitar. This guitar was made by the Oscar Schmidt company and is practically the same as an old Stella, like the ones used by the bluesmen of yesteryear.

So...here's a quick take on Crow Jane....a tune made popular by Skip James and Brownie McGhee, among others.
