Me having a go at House of the Rising Sun on a three string cbg. Using a low dad tuning (lowest three strings from a set of six). Kustom Arrow 16DFX amp on the clean channel with some reverb.

Spec of the guitar is dark 601 box, parana pine neck, rubber wood fretboard and bridge (part or the bridge is cedar), ebony nut and saddle, 19 frets with copper side markers, gold plated tuners, two piezo discs sandwiched in the bridge, oil finish to box and neck. Strings are electric even though there is only piezo amplification.

Tabs now at:

Sorry. The images is still small, but as good as I can get from the software at the moment. If anyone wants it with the score visible I can try that.

All the best.

Hi Dan.

I was assuming that Michael meant he couldn't get the image at all ("half inched" as in "pinched" as in cockney rhyming slang - it's a Brit thing you know).

All the best.

you're talking to a dinosaur..until 20 mins ago I was completely unaware of the existence of photothingy

As a workaround, you can hold down your Control Key and use your mouse's scroll wheel to zoom in on the image. Not a permanent fix, but it will help a bit in the meantime.

I have just tried this in a third browser (tried Safari, Firefox and Opera) and I am getting the image. I used the code that they gave for sharing. Can anyone shed any light on what the problem could be?

All the best.

Sorry about that Michael.

I'm not sure what's up. I can get it through two different browsers (I'm not logged into Photobucket on the second), so I am not sure where the problem is. Don't you love technology.

All the best.

Clicked on photobucket the image seems to have been half inched !

Finally I have tabs for this. The best way seems to put them up as an image but if I put them up here I am limited to width so I have them on Photobucket at http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p117/johnmaw/HouseRisingSun.jpg

Sorry that the numbers are small. This is a limitation of the software (unless I discover a way later, in which I will put up a new image). If anyone has a better suggestion for how to put them up I will be happy to give it a try.

Hope this is useful.
