    If anyone is interested, I posted a recording of Cluck Old Hen in the Miscellaneous Musing folder over at the Yahoo site that I recorded with my homemade cigar box mandolin. I posted pictures of this mandolin last week (I think it was last week!) Tell me what you think.

    Thanks Craig. Yeah, I made it myself. It has a pretty good sound for being a cigar box! By the way, thanks for this project. You're doing a great job and everyone really appreciates it.

    By the way, I love your Cluck old hen. Very nice back-up! Your version is similar to mine, just with a few more 8th notes, it sounds great.

    Thanks! I liked your version too. It sounded great with the double stops.
