Continued experiments with 1 of 2 guitars that I have altered with raised strings at nut and saddle to do slide style pieces, using glass like slide, brass nut and saddle on the guitar in this piece which is a Fender 12 string minus two strings.

This one done on the other guitar I have altered a 6-string parlor style, again raised nut and saddle area and playing with a glass slide, tuning as in the other piece sort of found.

adapted parlor acoustic to slide guitar. An improvisation reflecting on awaking to a roof leak in my recording room from an overnight snow.

another improvisation after raising the strings via found objects about the same height to make a slide guitar out of my parlor guitar. Tuning is fairly low tension though the string raise nut and saddle are raising pitch. Shot glass for slide.

a return to using the computer based looper Mobius this evening. I use it for a while then break away. Have found it very inspiring this evening, this is 8 tracks 6 violin and 2 guitar.

another piece done with Mobius this evening or early morning...
