Georgia On My Mind - 3 String CBG Instrumental

Continuing the quest to squeeze the most out of 3 strings - now with added harmonic sophistication!

Got myself a new Focusrite Scarlett audio interface and I'm digging the way the low impedance pickup sounds via XLR line in. Ultra clean and quiet with some EQ, compression and reverb added in Reaper.

GDG tuning.

Thanks for watching. Now go play your guitar.

Thanks pick ;), Richard and Erasmo!

Thanks James O, the Rainy Night in Georgia that you did a while back got me thinking about this one...

Thanks Jim,  

Thanks John, I can relate.  I stuck with DGB far too long really for the same reasons.  A couple years ago, I decided to give GDG a real chance and went back to the drawing board and tried to approach it like I was learning music for the first time.  Lots of scales and exercises and studying theory - all of the boring stuff I never learned right in the first place - is finally starting to pay off.

Those are some excellent, nuanced chords. Man, you did a great job on this!

Yup, what Pick said. And Richard, E. and James O.  Wonderful.  And an epiphany. 

I didn't 'get' why folks would want to make a GDG a universal, do it all player.  For me they are mostly a fun little blues box and I use other tunings for more varied songs.   But seeing and hearing you do this one, I think I finally get it.  Excellent.
