New Weissenborn recording

Post by Tonu Timm »

Made another duo-recording with acoustic guitar and Weissenborn. Weissenborn got all the fills and solo (and I'm singing in this one too:)

Nice work, Tonu! I love your style and tone on the Weissenborn. You sing well too.

Thank You, Tucker! I'm still the only Weissenborn player here in Estonia.
No teachers, no instructions. But luckily we got internet:)

It's similar to Scheerhorn bar, not sure about its brand thought. Got it as a present from a dobro playin' friend about 15 years ago. It looked quite 'used ' even then, but felt much better than Stevens. And it still works:) Actually I've been thinking of ordering new one, so I purchased Shubb GS but :( never used it - not for my short fingers.

Maybe Dunlop Lap Dawg Tone Bar is similar. I should purchase one of that type as my old one is too worn out.

Hi Tonu. I stumbled across your marvelous recording today and it's a treat. As a player I admire anyone who can sing and play slide guitar at the same time.
Anytime you feel like a adding another weissenborn to your collection, give me a call at Burgin Guitars, New Zealand. Here's my website www.burginguitars.co.nz

All the best with your playing.
Regards
