I restrung my today and as if that wasn’t tedious enough I also had to deal with one of my pet peeves: when a previous owner or repair knucklehead insisted on using some sort of knot or string hook on the tuning peg.

Anyway, I went with medium gauge strings since this thing has a huge neck and I’m tuning down a step so I really don’t think it can’t handle it.

It’s Sunday, aka and we’re taking things a little easy today. We had a lovely baby shower yesterday for our oldest daughter. Today little musical tidbits have been popping out of my head most of the day that I will some day arrange into proper songs.

I’m gonna be sharing each track from WHCHV3 over the next few weeks with the track’s liner notes and which guitars were used. Thanks!

10- The Untitled Part
I wrote this back around 2012 and it was the second half of a longer song called “Enough Rope/Untitled”. We re-recorded it because the original session was lost in a computer snafu that deleted a bunch of sessions around ten years ago. I’m ok with that now because I prefer this version.

1981 Gibson The Paul Deluxe
1973 Gibson ES345
1974 Fender Stratocaster
1985 Gibson Les Paul Custom

Catherine Meinhold and I trekked down to Catskill this evening to see her old college buddies in Hypnolovewheel get back together for the first time in like 25 years or something. Twas a lovely evening with some good tunes and old friends (great to see you J Rø). Can’t beat it.

08- Swing Set
This one was influenced by those mid 1960s Kinks singles like “Sunny Afternoon” and “Well Respected Man” although I don’t think I was aware of it when I wrote it.

1973 Fender Telecaster Custom

We’re out at our son-in-law’s family’s cabin near Cooperstown today. I brought along the old Black Special to keep myself busy, although right now our daughter is asleep so I’m keeping quiet 🤫
