Mr. Euphore, thanks for your serenade. I found your photo to be fascinating. What kind of trombone is that? It seems to have extra loopy bits. Also, your trombone seems to have been accessorized, nice touch.
My favorite Souza....wait a second.
That's not a trombone it's a EUPHONIUM isn't it! I can't tell you how frustrating it's been trying to figure out your screen name.
Anyway, once I pick up Mrs.Schade in my classic C-20, I figured I'd take her down to the nearest crossroads and conjure up Old' Scratch on my cigar box guitar....unless BadCat builds one of these things first.

Really, we should form a C.C. band and get Mrs.Schade to be our go-go dancer.
My favorite part of the guitar build was the sink drains for sound holes. LOVE THAT!!!!!!ELEVENTY!!!LllLLL The volume and distortion knobs were a little loud, though. Gotta tone those down with a box that small.
I'll tell ya, Schadie looks ready, if'n ya know what I mean. The git-tar is tuned, ain't it? The writhing shall commence any moment, it looks like.
Um, no, the pic above is me puttin' in some time on my bass trombone. (Bass trombones have extra bits up top -- sorta like some of the CC gals, I suspect.)
And the accessories are my fan club. (I have only 3 members - the two parrots and Mrs E, who snapped the photo.)
I think you'd be my fourth fan. I'll get Mrs. E to send you the address where you can send your two Rice Krispies box tops for your autographed pic of me and the secret decoder ring.
Uh, I think that B string just went a bit flat. Need to tighten it up a bit.
I've been workin' on my eyebrows with this one. Only 4 more inches to go:
