Beautiful!

Thanks...and notice I used the Rice tuning. Might do a few more like this. I guess I'm keeping the Hartel Boucher tuned up for a while. Nobody seems to play it this way.

I will try this one, tho I'm not sure about the guitar style...

It's a very easy one. There are no fingering indications to direct which way to play it. This is Buckley's gift...and curse. This material is very adaptable....I like that. Once again, just convinience led me to do ascending arpeggios guitar style. Easy.
