Celtic Classic
We had a great time at Celtic Classic in September!
Here's an original composition of mine into two Andy Cutting tunes.
Guizouki Body
Here's the latest! A ooo guizouki body of quartersawn white oak with a spruce top and ebony binding.
The rosette is a custom design that I created, and is wenge inlaid into the spruce.
Performance Review
Stomp Box
Ever wonder what that thumping is that you hear at Corey's shows?
Wonder no more, it's a ToeKicker stomp box by KOPF Percussion!
Corey is a KOPF sponsored artist, and uses a ToeKicker at most shows on his own and with Poor Man's Gambit.
You can pick one up yourself here: https://www.kopfpercussion.com/acoustic-stompbox/
