Hank Williams tune "Half As Much". Just posted on YouTube. Eadd9 tuning.

This video was easier than the last one. I only had to play half as much.

I just realized something that I had forgotten about! I have tablature for "Half As Much" in my "16 Songs" book. But it's not in the same tuning or key as this video. It's in A6 tuning, key of D.

The more I see that mint greenish?? Color on the Magnatone,the more I'm thinking about refinishing an old bass I have. Very cool finish.

Yeah, that's a mots covering that was used a lot of lap steels back in the day. I think they called it "pearloid" back then... made from some kind of a plastic solution and they added actual fish scales to it! The covering will peel off after many years, but the green mots on my Magnatone is in excellent condition. Same with the set below, currently on reverb.com (not mine).

Wow. Too cool. I'm thinking it is beyond my ability. The fish scales puts it way beyond me!
