Possum Head / Single O video

[David Houchens]

I finally got a sound clip of one of my possum head mandolins and got to have my new single O guitar in it as well. It was better in person but you'll get a feel of it.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4GbLuMxaXd8


These are two friends of mine doing the picking;
Will Leggett playing guitar and JP Lemley on mandolin.
Also, The name Stinking Toe live 007 was just the name of the file I kept it in at home. Wasn't ment to be the title. Oops.

Sounds great David. I really like the look and size of the guitar.

Thanks Bill. I've only built two of these and they both turned out nice. The first was brazilian back and sides, this one is from wood I got from Guiana. The folks there referred to it as stinking toe. I think its brazilian cherry. They both have red spruce tops. Better pictures on page six of " Whats on your bench" thread. Thanks also for bringing up the video. The forum said the file was too large and I didn't know how to size it.

This is the mandolin in the video. It now has an ebony bridge, James tailpiece and an armrest that spans over the bridge. I just borrowed this one back to show to the guy picking it. He may be ordering one. Thanks

Sorry for nonmandolin content. I'll try too get a clip of just the mandolin up soon as well. Also, not sure why this other stuff comes up at the end. Did I get too much address?

[David Houchens]

Heres the Possum Head by itself.

I still got the trailing stuff at the end. How do I keep from getting this? Or is that normal?

Fantastic David! Congratulate your friends, on their picking too! Still loving the build you did for me. It is a far better instrument than I could have hoped for.

[David Houchens]

Thanks Kowboy. Glad you've been enjoying it.
