Here’s my take on the swing tune "So Rare". This one's on 6-string lap steel, C6 tuning.

Great, expressive, beautiful music.
And a wonderfully composed tune.
Thanks, Doug.

Thanks Karen, yes, I'm using the DD-6, also a black box and reverb.
guitar --> black box --> volume pedal --> Boss DD-6 delay --> Holy Grail Plus reverb --> into the computer.
No amp. Monitor through the computer speakers.

Thanks Bryce, I appreciate it. I think some of the credit goes to the song itself, the melody and the chords work so well together. I know it sounds old fashioned to say... but they just don't write songs like this anymore. Thanks again.
