Comment by Chris Cusimano on January 1, 2012 at 2:17pm Just found some good instruction on the 3-string.
Comment by Chris Cusimano on January 1, 2012 at 2:16pm Hi Everyone,
I'm just learning how to play my CBG.
I do understand basic music theory and chord numbers.
Is there a process to easily translate a song that you like into a friendly strumming version for a fretless 3-string using only barre chords and the rhythm.
Thanks for your input.
Comment by MichaelS Country Boy Guitars on December 6, 2011 at 10:52pm Hayden, any song with a 1-4-5 chord progression will work. Just strum the open 5th and 7th frets and make it sound like the song your trying to play.
