New Resonator Day.
So, a friend of mine and I decided to put together a small project to help provide fundraising help for worthy causes like homeless shelters, food banks,, mental health challenges and folks that just need a hand now and then. We live in a pretty depressed area economically and it's a fairly often occurence where someone's home or rental will burn down and they have no fire insurance coverage. Sometimes it comes down to do you want to feed your family or buy insurance to protect your home.
Anyway, my friend plays a nice stand-up bass, some guitar, sings a bit, can play some keyboards and some clarinet. Maybe more but that's what I can remember. I also came across another fella who recently bought a Martin from me and he's a really good guitarist and sings leads/harmonies as well. He's also a Lutheran Pastor so I'll need to try and behave a bit I guess.
So, we're gonna see what we can put together. It should be fun I think. I'll likely handle most of the lead vocals and can provide some guitar work as well but the newer guy is a lot better than me so I started thinking what else could I add to give us a different sound. I've got the Gold Tone Banjitar and as I recently posted I added a Magnatone Lap Steel. Last night I added this Recording King Resonator which has gotten some decent reviews, was priced right and has decent electronics. We'll see how all that shakes out.
Here's a link to my purchase. Not sure you'll be able to open it because it is now a sold listing but I'll try anyway. I think I have now bought the toys I needed to help get me through the winter.
