Getting a bit better at playing So here is a A bit of plucking and strumming on my 4 string fretted electric CBG.

I just love the sound of the High A to E to D chord sliding transition at both 1:08 and again at 1:55mins. Still need to practice a bit more :)

I had forgotten about that riff it is very mellow isn't it (sliding from the 14th to the 9th then the 7th frets)

I think i'll have to re-learn it for my relaxing on the porch time.

Thanks for that Michael :)

Hello from Vancouver, Canada... this is easily my favourite of your video's Tess. 

Nice slide work, great sound!

Love that intro plucking! Reminds me a little of the opening of the Beatles song Two of Us. The slides are also nice. Look forward to hearing more from you.

 Mellow good.  Nice guitar and soothing bluesy good.

You're picking is great Tess, I'm not much at picking yet as my fingers won't do what my brain tells them;-) You're strumming sounds great also, reminds me of a band from the 70's called Firefall. The git has a really warm sound, what amp are you running it through?
