3 String CBG Lesson for Walkin' After Midnight

Tuned GDg. This is pretty much how I do this great old Patsy Cline song. It shows the chords and some of the licks.

Thanks for the kind words Richard. Both my builds but not the bow. It was recorded simply with the built in mic of the vid camera.

Another great lesson Jim!

Thank you for the song Jim! Excellent! Morbanjo, I subscribed, have to check your videos out! It's worth a second listen people "Nights At The Riverboat" a Jim Morris original. Such a nice clean sound, is that a mic or direct line into video recorder? Professional quality! Bonus fiddle and looping and singing top notch Jim! You do need a stage hand during instrument changes. That's serious concentration switching to guitar and not missing a beat singing the verse . Goth your builds? Nice sounding both! Did you make the bow? I need a bow to replace my screwdriver haha! Heartfelt lyrics, makes a great story and song.

LOL Richard. The shirt is one of the few remaining Hawaiian style from me doing my one man gig at a Tiki Bar for 6 years. Hurricane Isabel came and tore the place down and I took it as a sign.
Wrote a song about it!

Read the instructions first Jim! Tricky little devils these screwdrivers! Your way of teaching a song much more natural and easier to pick up after a couple of times. Is that an official CBG Nation shirt? Great lookin shirt!

Thanks Richard. I always feel like I'm leaving stuff out when I do these but I hate the tedious videos saying "put your first finger on the 2nd fret of the 3rd string and then slide it up to the 3rd fret" I'd way rather try to show what I'm doing with a brief explanation and let the viewer work most of it out. Hey man, non-traditional stuff is cool too! Now I'm gonna try a screwdriver.

Your the man Jim! Teach and play the song in under four minutes! That's expert stuff there! Enjoyed it and picked up some great points. I'm practicing and down the road a bit hopefully I'll brave a traditional style CBG slide song. The screwdriver is now under lock and key!
