hi, i really liked the lessons , they helped a lot . i was wondering do you do any others ? like for , you gotta move or stuff like that ?
Just found these lessons, thank you for posting them...
Thanks Tiny. I plan to put your lessons to good use.
Greetings: The chords I am going to use are GDGB. Don't know why I chose these chords over DGBD other than they seem to be the most popular. I assume I use the four center strings on my CBG. As you can tell, I'm a novice at this! I would like to see you play a song on a 4-string CBG, and then I' ll know how its done. As I said before, all your lessons are on a 3-string. Help!!!
Thank you...thank you very much....
Thanks. I have tried to learn guitar and 3 string before but always got discouraged, made excuses and quit. I want to be a success this time! I don't have a carrer path that included CBG royalty. I am happy with court jester!!
Looking for a lesson on a 4-string CBG -- open G tuning. Everything seems to be on a 3-string. Is there any such thing as a "chart" of chords for open G?
Thank you for your remarks. In no way did I mean to be condescending, nor did I want to bring this controversy to your post. On the contrary, this is how I began teaching too. I started back in 2006 posting lessons on youtube for 6 string bottleneck style. A friend suggested burning and selling them. The response was positive, so I continued the series. I do not personally know this member, but apparently he has an issue. Again, I apologize for any misunderstanding. Keni Lee
