Re: "CHORDIE?" NOT "TABBIE" (5 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
I have also seen Nashville Numbering on some songs too. On some songs if you look you will see chords, tabs, and Nashville Numbering all on the same song. As Bill said none of it is Chodie's fault. Sometimes the sites change what they list.

I do not know how I missed this one and it is so perfect of a song and covers all of the problems. I think if someone invents something stronger, you get one high and then drop dead.

In my years of teaching I have seen it once and it turns out that he was using both too much pressure and was using two high a tension. My suggestion if you want to play well is to use the lightest tension on your guitar so it will not buzz when you play. Also use the lightest touch when playing that get a clean sound. Start playing for 10 minutes and add 10 minutes a week. If you hit your notes in the center between two frets it will take less pressure for a clean sound. Play a little each day.

I just watch it and he was playing a classical guitar and used a thumb pick. In his playing, and he was good, but he was using a true travis picking style. What he was playing was in reality an easy tune although a long one. So Phill no smashed up guitars. I and betting what you play he may not.

Re: Anyone Here Play Microtonal/Atonal Guitar? (7 replies, posted in Acoustic)
Segovia who inspired thousands how to play true classical guitar. He also understood very well how to properly tune a guitar. If you look at this guy's guitars the half notes are frets he added himself. He should have spent some money on a good turner.

Elmore James was a good choice. I listened to some others of his after the one you picked. Sounded like he used a slide on his videos that was just sound with no real video.

The bass player was good and was the drummer. Wish I knew what he was singing. From the audience reaction I am sure the singer was good too.

I had to look Mississippi John Hurt and now know why. Neil Young has unique sound and style and his influence is very good. sweet baby james by JJames Taylor is a great choice. James Taylor took guitar lessons for several years to develop his unique style. On his website he now has several lessons and they are interesting. Here is a link to his site: https://www.jamestaylor.com/guitar-lessons/
