Derek, it's a nightmare I tell ya! Ha ha! It's a crime to have to remember the same chords and notes in a whole other country. UJ was right, 3 string....slide!

I made the transition mentally to 4 with uke several years back and remember how I always thought in terms of guitar, then eventually I realized the training wheels did come off. LOL. 3 strings is something I am still adjusting too myself.

Thanks Derek. Still using training wheels. Appreciate your comments. Transition from 6string to 4 and now 3 ...madness. Like earthquake loud to sleeper quite, let the mood guide. Having fun, as it looks like you are. Run if you see me try Amazing Grace Metallica style! Ha!

Cool funky sounding which works great for cbg. Looks like fun and fine playing Richard! Play what and how you like! :)

Thanks John. All those years of guitar the instinct is to play faster to hide the fact I don't have a clue yet! Thanks for all your help with notes and chords. Yes, having fun. Now the process of unlearning an old way and learning a new. How's that for irony!

Thanks Jim and Dave. Rockin' as if I were playing a six string I know! Safe zone. Still learning the chords and notes, a more traditional CBG tune next hopefully. Love the sound of these, very inspirational.

Sounds great! Low tech works good with CBG's
