Looking for Eric Clapton's "Mustang Sally" TIA

On the "Home" page put the title in the search box and you should get a few from several artists and I'm sure one of them will be Clapton's version but likely in a different key.
I seem to remember E7 & B7 being the main chords used for most of the tune..... I may be wrong though, old age and all that. smile

Look for Wilson Pickett - I think he did the original ...

For most guitar work and frets included either use a good   Luthier or an experienced guitar tech. Just because you can find the the products does not mean most guitar owners would have the same experience doing their work. Guitars of any type are  expensive . Why do frets and tech work without using an expert? I

Different people are at different levels of DIY ... you have a valid point, but depends on the value of the guitar to the owner ... and experience, and willingness to expand experience ...

Thanks for the link Richard,  I'm not sure if we have tried this earlier, or if it was a problem performing properly with our kind of "customized" Chordie Version.  Will check it out though.
Doug

Probably depends on the version your running ... one trick I used in the past was to have a hidden field on the page, named something like "description", robots will automatically fill in a form with "known" details - so if this field has a value, it's a robot, as people viewing the page can't see it ...

If you're going to file it, be sure to get one of these (or make something equivilent:

http://www.stewmac.com/Luthier_Tools/To … uards.html

I've filed a few fret without this, but if you nick the wood, it's not a nice outcome ... a couple of slivers of aluminum or thin steel will also do the trick, with a thick lacky band to hold it in place (because I can't afford StewMac prices!!) ...

Thank you Jandle 
Neophytte here is one of your music composition's put to a video, Let me know if you don't like it and I will take it down.

I give it the thumbs up!! smile

Funny thing about that song is that we used it on one of our 'home videos' I make for the kids, specifically this one was traveling down south, where I'd sped up the video, so I always associate the visual imagery of going past cars with that tune now - hahaha smile

BTW: what video editing program are you using? I use iMovie on the Mac, and it's quite good, but I'm finding none of the special effects like you've applied ...

neophytte, nice spot to sing such a great song in the park smile  Well done. 

I would love to have heard more with your wife playing along side and singing with you .... hopefully you will get a chance to do it again with her smile

Thanks smile

As you can see from the video, we rarely get the time together to sing, and it's a bit hard to find songs to do together as she likes Jazz and I like rock, but sometimes we find a happy medium ... smile

Here is my last song for this month of Christmas songs .... it was a challenge and i found it hard to find chords that suited my vocals as it is quite low in places and high in other places.  Anyway, here is my attempt at it.

That was great - I wouldn't have thought you had struggled with this - it sounds really good ... the low opening vocal notes reminded me of some (famous?) singer, but I can't put my finger on who it was ...
