Tommy Emmanuel & Frank Vignola

[SouthernSounds]

Hi folks:

Navigating the web today, I came across a collaboration between Tommy & Frank, a new one to me, and WOW is all what I can say.
I leave you some videos, to try to transmit and express what I'm talking about...

Limehouse Blues & The Flight of the Bumblee Bee - Hungarian Dance N°5

And finally, a clip of mr. Vignola: Gypsy Mania

All the best,
B.

Makes me want to give my guitars away.

Me too!

OTOH, I have some free space that I could use to help you, David. I could take care of them for a while. Just saying :wink:

All the best,

I'm sure you could! I just got another as well...a JF65-E. What a sound it has!

Really? IIRC, I think I've not seen the NGD... How about one and a sound clip, David?

All the best,

P.S. Well, I was sure I had read about it, but I wasn't completely sure... When will she arrive?

That's the one! The electronics need to be tweaked (cuts out after about a minute), and the binding along the first fret needs to be tightened up. There is a crack in the binding along the end of the neck by the soundhole, just under the treble E string. If the guy that works on my guitars thinks that needs immediate attention I will have him fix that, otherwise that will probably wait. Other than that it is in excellent shape. I will try to get some pics out this week, and sound clips once the electronics are up to snuff assuming I can make a recording of sufficient sound quality to give you a true idea of its sound. Compared to the F65-CE it has a bigger, and dare I say more articulate sound. But it is a jumbo for sure!

Just Between Frets is the name of the CD that Tommy Emmanuel and Frank Vignola collaberated on. Looks to be a must have to me!

For me too. Thanks for the tip, David!

I'll stay tuned to see the pics. Glad she is in great shape!

All the best,
