Hi, Brian.

Mike Ross posted this beautiful tune on Facebook recently and I commented back to him that is sounds like it ought to have words as well. Have you composed any singing waltzes?

[heftone]

@tallercaller I haven't put words to any of them. Feel free to add them.

Nice and clear, as always. Question: Does your Martin have a full 1.5" nut? Do you think it makes a difference?

[heftone]

Thanks. [measures nut on Martin 3K] .. It's less than 1.5", more like 1 3/8". I think it's the standard Martin soprano nut size and string spacing, which seems comfortable enough to me. I've played some LoPrinzi's that seemed a little bit wider and that seemed nice, but I don't find myself wishing the Martins' nuts were wider. I probably wouldn't mind if they were.

I do have a couple of banjo ukes with narrower nuts and they do seem a little cramped to me.

what strings do you use in that Martin? it sounds fabulous!!!

[heftone]

Right now it is strung with Worth clear hards. It sounds fine with any strings I've tried.

nice, thank you. *****
