I couldn’t stop listening. Amazingly original and Inspiring.
Changing my 12 string strings tonight : )
INCREDIBLE!!!
Unbelievable sound, great recording. Superb stuff, bravo sir.
very nice; who made the guitar? I have a 12 string acoustic lap slide set up like a dobro at the nut and saddle and it has all 12 strings; it sounds awesome; i play it in open tunigs too, G and, D, E. I don’t fingerpick it but play with a flat-pick rhythm style. I was searching for another like it on the net and found this vid. I’ve really enjoyed listening to you Mike while typing this. I don’t think there is another 12 string lap slide like mine anywhere in the world, that I know of. MUSIC!
Fantastic music. Hypnotic even
As a weissenborn beginner you are an inspiration, I will be studying your playing very closely and hope I can grasp a few pointers. Great instrumental 🙂
One of my favorite songs of all time and I am 64. Mike is an astonishing player and a wonderful human being. I am proud to call him my friend even though we are thousands of miles apart. he is salt of the earth.
That was so soothing…. 🙂

You are wonderful. That is real talent right there. My husband plays metal music, and he is really well at it too. I was showing him how hard it is to play a slide 12 string. Lol He says you are really good")
Absolutely hypnotic.
