    Default Elkhorn F-5 #31

    Here's the latest Elkhorn F-5 fresh off the work bench. This one turned out looking really nice and the sound is quite strong for being strung up for less than 24 hours. Attached an MP3 with a couple different types of tunes in different positions to get an idea of the whole range of the instrument. Enjoy!

This truely is the greatest resource available for sharing this stuff with the people that really enjoy checking it all out. And; thanks Scott we wouldn't be here if you hadn't started it all!!
