Paris Texas

A version of the theme tune from the movie Paris Texas, made famous by Ry Cooder.The original piece was called Dark was the night , cold was the ground by Blind willie johnson. His original version was placed on a disk which was sent into space aboard the NASA spacecraft Voyager in 1977 to prove that there is Humanity on earth. I was being gentle with the guitar as it is not set up with a higher action for slide playing at this time.

That's very impressive. I've played a single biscuit bridge cone steel body Michael Messer before, which is actually a fairly good guitar and it is way below yours.

Which guitar is that?
