Would it be impertinent to enquire how the school music contest went? B-)

cool.great first vid.like everyone else says just keep at it.experiment with different things for slides to.i use a piece of aluminum tube cut then a bit of electric tape round one end to keep my finger in and stop it cutting my hand.remember there is no right way with CBGs.its all self expression.keep them coming :D

Hi Penfoot. It's improvisation, never easy, so well done...

I remember I din't know how to choose my finger to slip my bottleneck on...still now I don't know...

I try different way then play again and again... Bottleneck seems to  be very heavy...°<[:-) [---]==={

Thanks - i know it is a bit simple; a bit (dare i say it) bad. i sort of wanted to see if i could improvise and listen back - than wondered what others would think. I have played a six string as well for a few years and haven't quite got there with the slide - stupidly the 2 i've built are both fretless and therefore need a slide :( Cleverly the one in the workshop is (hopefully) going to to be fretted. :)

despite it theoretically being an easy one to play I still struggle with that song so keep at it

You have the basic rudiments developing there mr. P, we all had to start somewhere, keep practising! (-:
