These songs were recorded on a Tascam 414 four track cassette machine. Doug plays a Stuart Spector bass, a rented Euphonium, a nameless guitar he made himself from an old piece of swamp maple with a pick-up he practically stole off of Ned Steinberger, a digeridoo made out of plumbing parts, an accordian bought at Goodwill (on a sale day) and an acoustic Guild D-45 that has survived for twenty odd years in pristine condition
