Cooley's Reel and The Wise Maid

Again, I play slow through this reel the first couple of times than pick it up to a session tempo (maybe a little faster). The second tune is one I've done on the tenor guitar, but which goes really well in this set, which I learned from a session in Knoxville, Tennessee.

Wow. Your playing is awesome.

Could you please tell me what kind of pick you use?

[tantoonie0]

I wish could, but I tend to switch out pretty regularly. I usually stick to something a little heavier than most people use (.73 mm Dunlops), but I also use dulcimer picks (large triangles) from .5 mm to .73 mm. I also really Ultex (with the rhino on them) for durability and grip.

[tantoonie0]

Yep. That's my baby.

I've recently purchased a bouzouki, now I know what I must aspire to.

not bad at all... i think i might try to learn those tunes... your mandolin, is it a Big Muddy?

Is my computer doing something weird, or is the audio out of sync with the video?
