Monkey got his tail caught up on a street car line, honey. Didn't think about it till I started twistin' mine, honey. Run back to the track, lay his head on the rail, lose his head about a little piece of tail. Oh sail, oh sail away - Funny Papa Smith, Honey Blues

Dr. G Excellent thread indeed! I play in the New Roanoke Jug Band, and we have an excellent washboard player, who plays it as is - no spoons, thimbles or extras (just some substantial callouses after 30 years). He is now passing the tradition on to our newest band member, a 21 yr old prodigy who is playing banjo, harp, guitar and washboard, and tambourine on I'll Be Rested. As for the knocking sound in that piece, I wonder if it is Uaroy banging on his brother's guitar while shaking the tambourine?...I saw mention of a National Soap Saver #199 in the thread. We have one of those (for the extra big whap), and a #197 that is the primary washboard. Has anyone seen another model of blue enamel faced Soap Saver?
Go to ebay and search for washboard. Last time I looked there were about 5 pages. And maybe 3 #199s. Not to mention all the other popular models like Zinc King and Lingerie.
All for now. John C.
