Jack White, look out: it's my free MP3 blues guitar instrumental "Alpaca Cheese!"

I wanted to see whether my new guitar, with its single vintage-reissue hum-cancelling pickup, sounded as good as I had thought it did in the store in Seattle a couple of weeks ago.

The best test of that was to pick a single amplifier sound, plug in, and start playing. And now there is "Alpaca Cheese," a live-to-disk recording (MP3 file)—with no overdubs, edits, or other instruments—that I made a few days ago and have now published on my podcast and at the Podsafe Music Network. Thanks to Les Thorn for mastering it for me. As usual, you're free to share, podcast, remix, mash up, or do what you will with the tune, as long as you give me credit.
