Uncle Larry plays some depressing slide and then gets into some nasty western swing licks you can teach your grand kids some day

…and totally unrelated, this is sooo my new favorite YouTube channel....i fuckin' LOVE this guy

he's a total bad ass master craftsman with a zillion subscribers on YouTube...
i'm not even a builder and i have already learned so much from watching his stuff.
on a more sentimental note, i chose this video of his to show you first because i love the reverence he has for the great people that built this amazing country

this shit is right up my alley friends
