In Argentina... My version of Blackbird by the Beatles

[MrMarkyparky]

Great cover!! You should be on "IDOL!!"

[kadaj2172]

oh wow you got a a good voice! I am thinking about buying a backpack guitar like this to play when i travel. I like them.

[uni68]

love the cover...how did you find travelling with the backpacker thinking of getting one for my gap year however i dont know what airports would be like with one, did you have any trouble?

[marklouisjordan]

try it on a regular acoustic i understand u were trying to get it in the low melody but do it with a regular acoustic

[manswan21]

9 months in another country with only my backpacker. You work with what you have...

[razaviknows]

does the backpacker sound different from normal classicals??

[marklouisjordan]

well no its just not as loud as a regular acoustic but its the same sound

[razaviknows]

ok thanks!!

[ronnysoeberg]

Nah, it sounds a lot more twangy. It has a thinner tone to it than a "real" classical guitar or a jumbo or whatever. The smaller the body the thinner the sound. I like the sound of it a lot. I actually bought mine because i wanted a different sound. It kind of crosses into banjo territory sound wise because of the thin twangy vibe it's got going.

It also has a shorter scale.

[razaviknows]

hmmm.

[namewithhe1d]

Thanks tuber... Yea, it was a blessing having that guitar on my trip. Keeps you company when you're bored and lets you entertain with friends! I appreciate the kind words..

[HigherStanderds]

Would you suggest a backpack guitar? I think they look really cool and practicle but i cant tell if it would be worth it.

[guild618]

very enjoyable, nice guitar and vocals.

[resoblues]

Sounds good with that little guitar.  Nice play'n.

[mellon423]

is it steel string or nylon?

[namewithhe1d]

Steel string, though I recommend using extra-light strings. Because the guitar has a unique "twang" to it, you don't need heavier gauge strings.

[mellon423]

thanks a lot. I'm going on a backpacking trip and im in the market for a backpacker guitar to keep in practice while im about. I'm still trying to decide whether I should get a steel string or nylon. I've heard the nylor version is slightly louder, but yours sounds perfect.

[rishulmatta16]

hey wat chords r tht??? i mean which progression is tis on???

[pagboy529]

Hahahaha nice job, man. I'm currently watching a backpacker on ebay lol. Anyways, great cover, I've always loved that song.

BTW, check out my channel if u get a chance, I play guitar, too

[namewithhe1d]

Thanks for all the great responses! The backpacker is great. It traveled with me (attached to my backpack) for 8 months and is still great!

[comma35]

wow your relly good, i want to get a backpacker

[WoLFgaNG22]

Great cover, well played and and I liked your singing too!

Cheers from Argentina. =)

[namewithhe1d]

Same for mine! I got a gig bag with it too.. Invaluable because that guitar got banged around quite a bit

[corndodoubleg]

[mikeymodavis123]

[lemy666]
