Thanks Jim that's been a dream of mine for a long Time, Glad you Like it and appreciate the comment
Thanks Turtlehead I love to Improvise out the spot Keeps my Playing fresh I Try to do it in a fun Way glad so many of you find it entertaining. Thanks Man
Thanks Roger Just keeping it real That's the way I love to play Just play it the way you feel.
Simply beautiful. Man, you should have a recording contract!
These last 2 lessons are great James O. Your ability to improvise words/lyrics on the spot is incredible. And to put it all together in a lesson is very entertaining.
I want to point out to everybody that James is keeping this pattern going for about 9 whole minutes. That's how you do it folks. Get yourself a picking pattern that you like and practice it until you can play it for 10-15 minutes straight. It will always be with you.
Love your style real down to earth and smooth.
Nancy as always you inspire us all with your great comment's and picture's . Now send Me that Beautiful Swamp Witch. Oh I know you wouldn't part with it Thanks for Your comment's That was some Great pictures of your Guitar.
Jason love to hear you play Man sounds Great Thanks for the comment
Oh well I recken I've ramble on enough Ya'll keep a play em See Ya
Thanks Silent Jim for those kind words. I like to keep things simple to used terms and words everyone understands, I love Cigar Box Guitar there's just something about playing a guitar you Built your self that I find very enjoyable I don't play Because there all I have But because I enjoy it. I also Own some of the Best Guitars in the World , Gibson J50, Gibson Les Paul, Gibson EP Acoustic Electric, Gretsch 5120, Prestege Heritege, And many more, No I'm not rich but been Playing and collecting Guitars over 50 years. Yet I often find My self Playing One of My Cigar box Guitars Just because I Enjoy It So Much. I still remember what it was like when I first started playing. So I try to keep it simple And help any way I can. It's true I'm Mostly Self Taught Did take music lessons for a while So I understand what Ron was taking About , My goal was to be able to write the music to The songs I white . Left all that behind many years ago no longer give it much thought as I have never had to Read music to Play anything, as I play by ear Can play anything I hear and want to Play in any key never use a capo Nothing wroung with That It's a great tool To make things easy just not for Me. I learned Many cord's in My life time and use to Play Many I also learned Many classical Style cord's and played with all My fingers. After I cut My index finger off had to adapt a deferent style playing. I play all Of my Guitars 22 in all and 5 Cigar box Guitars. Thanks Ron for Explaining the Music theory Behind My playing hope it help's someone if they would like to learn it . You did a good job. But I left all this behind many years ago. I just play it the way I like and let it go now days. As I have written several Hundred Songs and seldom play covers.
Thanks Wes your right many Banjo Players play this style don't play Banjo maybe I ort ta get Me one those things Thanks for the comment Man.
Papa D I'm glad you enjoy my little old Lessons and appreciate your comments
