Thank you high praise indeed from one so gifted

[kwhompus]

That's a work of art! Whats her name? How does it sound?

[Hidden in reply to kwhompus]

I will see if there is a way to post a link to an audio recording, and if I with my tech unsaavy am able to do it Robert

That is beautiful. How does it play? I can't help but wonder if I could hear its memories in its sounds. What does it retain of the morning sun, the feel of summer rain slipping down its trunk, the birds that moved from branch to branch in its shelter. In a way, it seems an almost sacred instrument.

I am so impressed! My husband is a woodworker but I'm glad he never tried instruments. We have a bunch that we don't know how to play! Do you play? Did you make this for yourself or for a gift?

[Hidden in reply to mrsmike9]

I made it for myself and I do play although not nearly as well as before MS, but I still occasionally make awful noise on it... As the old joke goes guitarists spend 1/2 their time tuning and the other 1/2 playing out of tune.... But since foot drop I take it a step further and play out of time as well,( can't tap my foot anymore)

[mrsmike9 in reply to Hidden]

I envy you your skill!

[carolek572 CommunityAmbassador]

Wow! Beautiful Hidden Can it be played or is it a work of art? So beautiful and you certainly have a gift!

[Hidden in reply to carolek572]

Can be played but not as well since MS

[carolek572 CommunityAmbassador in reply to Hidden]

I think that you play it better than I, Hidden

[2littletime]

What a beautiful work of art...only made more beautiful as the music pours from it. You truly have a gift...👍😄🎶

[Hidden in reply to 2littletime]

Thank you so much very sweet reply

[Sukie427]

WOW! Stunning! We had a dead tree, but we had to pay someone to cut it down, remove the stump, and take everything to the dump! I like your result much better!

[Hidden in reply to Sukie427]

Thank you! Robert
