@Alex...one more thing.  If you know anyone who has a machine shop and can work with metal, you might want to go look for some old brass pipe (from an old house) and then have them...

@Alex...Yes, you can carefully remove the nut by gently tapping it loose.  Then you can reglue it once you have used the matchbook to add the height.  If this makes you nervous...

Cool Steve, glad you like it.

Very cool.  I too copped this about 25 years ago and have been doing the triads and double stops slightly different.  This sounds more rich and full.  Can't wait to work through...

Wow!  Mystery solved.  I've been listening to that for about 25 years.  I think the simplicity and economy of your arrangement is a huge lesson.  Thank you so much, Duke. Slim

@Mike...that is much better.  I can hear the lighter touch.  I think you only need to work on the phrasing of the slide.  You can listen to my version here or just go back to Blind...
