I am from old east Virginia, North Carolina I did go There I met a fair pretty maiden, though her name I did not know Her hair was gold and curly, her cheeks were rosy red On her breast she wore white linen, there I longed to lay my head Rather be in some dark holler, where the sun don't ever shine Than to see you with some other, and to know you'll never be mine But I must leave old North Carolina, I must leave you all alone Gonna cross those Blue Ridge Mountains, east Kentucky will be my home When I was lost out on that mountain, wild dogs mournin' in the air I miss that gal from North Carolina, with those blue eyes and the golden hair When I'm asleep I dream about her, when I'm awake I see no rest Every moment seems like an hour, many a tear o'er her I've shed I have kept each of your letters, I hold them closely to my heart But this ring that you gave me darling, from my hand shall never part Captain, Captain I am dying, won't you take these words for me? Take 'em back to old east Virginia...tell my darlin' she is free.
Yes, absolutely! It is definitely more comfortable and better for my short arms and little hands but there is a bit of a difference in sound (couldn't tell you what exactly...I aim to figure this out soon). I will say, the 309 was/is in worse condition than my other instruments, so that might impact how much I like it too!
I am from old east Virginia, North Carolina I did go
There I met a fair pretty maiden, though her name I did not know
Her hair was gold and curly, her cheeks were rosy red
On her breast she wore white linen, there I longed to lay my head
Rather be in some dark holler, where the sun don't ever shine
Than to see you with some other, and to know you'll never be mine
But I must leave old North Carolina, I must leave you all alone
Gonna cross those Blue Ridge Mountains, east Kentucky will be my home
When I was lost out on that mountain, wild dogs mournin' in the air
I miss that gal from North Carolina, with those blue eyes and the golden hair
When I'm asleep I dream about her, when I'm awake I see no rest
Every moment seems like an hour, many a tear o'er her I've shed
I have kept each of your letters, I hold them closely to my heart
But this ring that you gave me darling, from my hand shall never part
Captain, Captain I am dying, won't you take these words for me?
Take 'em back to old east Virginia...tell my darlin' she is free.

I sure miss our personal concert, but I'm liking this. 🥰
I miss you
Gettin' good, girl
I'm so honored that you think so! Could not have made it even this far without you!
Cool! How does the shorter scale length feel while playing? Is it a noticeable difference in your opinion?
Yes, absolutely!
