Acadian key change to F, and progressive wet tuning

Yesterday I applied a damp, progressive tuning to this awesome 1985 Acadian that was converted to F, recently. It gives the overall sound more depth and body.

Holy molé that is great, dude! That is as fine ah Cajun box playing that I have ever heard! How in the world can you play like that? It is so in your heart and soul. I really like how that box sounds and I've always enjoyed the key of F/C to write and sing in. The dampness of the tuning really makes it shine and it can cut through and above low noise (including full-band situations) like no other key. Love, love, love it man and I appreciate your videos -- truly educational as well as enjoyable! Thank you, Jim...

It's an oldtime, high lonesome sound. I love it too!
