E Sweet Didgeridoo
Background: Long and slim like an ivory tusk, grain is georgeous especially when light reflects of it. Backpressure is good on this didge with a soft edge to the sound. Very easy to toot and a pleasure to play. This piece of Sweet Chestnut is from Hoth Wood in Sussex. I was tempted to bleach the wood to make it resemble a piece of ivory but then the natural won so it has been fonished with three layers of Danish Oil and four layers of Finishing Oil with a couple of layers of wax for good measure.
