Low-Tech Delta Blues

[The Reverend 48]

All this about Dobro's Seasick Steve and Mississippi stomp boxes inspired me to do something different (for me anyway)......
So there are no effects just me
both parts are played on my variax set to Dobro and the stompbox is me tapping a box over the BR on mic setting...
How low tech can you get
What do you think?
Do you think the variax sounds like a real resonator?
BTW I know its short but I'm in a rush
I am definately going to do a longer version may even throw in some of my vox........

A great start to some really great old timey blues song, you should write some lyrics and sing with this, awsome for sure.  This is inspired, run with it, you will have a really great original song. Keep fleshing it out.
