Vestapol / Vastopol on a Beard Gold Tone PBR Resonator

"Vestapol" (aka "Vastopol") is a 19th century parlor guitar piece that Libba Cotten played in the 1950s-80s. I learned this arrangement from John Miller's terrific DVD, "The Guitar of Elizabeth Cotten" ( http://guitarvideos.com/video/dvd/819dvd.htm)

I'm playing this on a Beard Gold Tone PBR Resonator. See also my video of the same song played on a Martin 00-18CTN guitar.

You looked like you weren't too much satisfied when you finished :) Smile, smile. What was that constant light switching on and off on the background?

Keep picking!

I have this model in a cutaway. Absolutely beautiful tone, great craftsmanship too at half the price of a Dobro.
