I Dig a Pony (The Beatles)

[caintapi]

Very nice! What guitar are you using here?

[irchristo]

Really great cover of a really great song.  Thanks.

[JeffersonDinedAlone]

You are gifted, but I also appreciate how much work goes into developing it. Enjoy your version very much.

[Parkwoodparkenfarker]

Great version of this, I'd like to hear the "You can penetrate any place you go." section stay more in the time signature of the rest of the song. Please post again if you will.

[irchristo]

@Parkwoodparkenfarker - you are just pullin' legs right?

[busteroo7]

instant suscriber

[busteroo7]

[troubleclef]

[lambgtr7]

i think you do a zep cover ive seen before but youre nasty man keep it up

[Beatlescanner]

Can you post chords or tabs?

[coreyiyican]

Excellent!

[PLANTERSVEVO]

those are lennon's hands O.O

[truthslap]

well you can celebrate anything you want!

[Tyguy80s]

Wonderful Arrangement! That's also a very great looking guitar, 12 fret Round Shoulder, please tell me a little more about it. Thanks for reading.

[Missurunha]

how could anyone 'dislike' this? =/

[penteado86]

where do i find the score of this? could you send me?

[bolerocrew]

I feel envy for your satisfaction. And I can see it. Because I don't spend my time practising something.

[GeddyYeti2112]

Finally someone does this song justice in a cover video.

[MRGTi5]

Love the intro. I can never get tired of it. Overall excellent cover, man.

[MDBeatles]

this blows me away!!!!

[agalligani]

I watched you play this and Martha My Dear. What strikes me is how after all these years these songs still sound so fresh and amazing, and hearing them as you play them in such a beautiful and original way I hear them in from an entirely new perspective. It really underscores the amazing talents of Lennon and MacCartney. Makes me think that one without the other would have never been half as good. Consider those songs were written one by each and you see they must have influenced each other.

[troubleclef]

@agalligani

thanks a lot, man

[Javiih15Aure]

Just one word: WOW!

[musictflo]

Great flow in the performance. That stuff is not easy. I love all your arrangements-I do Beatles finger style myself and you have some very imaginative chord melody voicing and great counterpoint. Some of what you do is familiar territory, but as I look and listen I get surprised and say why didn't I think of that?! Very very cool stuff!

[troubleclef]

@musictflo

thanks. I appreciate it. I get the same feeling watching other people play all the time. "why didn't i think of that?". there's always more and more and then some to learn about the guitar. cheers.

[krymcp]

THATS AWSOME !!

[starstart23]

outstanding

[jimijackson]

beautiful work man :) thumbs up..

[AnginaJoelie]

Best arrangement for solo guitar I've seen.

Are you using standard tuning? Thanks!

[mrzatanasreymark]

galing

[Pumpkineata1]

an all time favorite of mine, and you do it beautifully <3

[kurt11110]

your body language; the sways and bends, definitely speak to how much in the moment you were, troubleclef. what a heartfelt performance, and kudos especially to your riff at :34. great performance .

[troubleclef]

@kurt11110

thanks, Kurt

[django54321]

I'm definitely 'digging' your arrangements. Good range of style and technique from one to the next. Certainly not a one trick pony...

Your arrangements beat the hell out of any of the published versions that I've come across.

Also, the fact that you are getting such a positive response on here should speak volumes about how well you've handled the tunes. Normally, Beatles freaks + Youtube = disaster...

Thanks for the inspiration!

[troubleclef]

@django54321

thanks for the comments, buddy

[7byseven]

very nice playing mate youve got a great feel and timing

[troubleclef]

@7byseven

[miluko3]

You're so great! I love this song and you did it really well

[swinzey]

just incredible. What an inspiration!!! I would love to hear you play that on a minorly distorted Les Paul on a tube amp.

[ACX352395]

i hate the song but the guitar sounds beautiful

[funnycarrot]

Awesomes

[airnsmke]

have you thought of doing all you need is love?

[ASAP12391]

[Jsthegr8]

good job chief!

[larryandthelobsters]

5 stars

[TheHarryBalzer]

this is awesome!

[bostero1]

WOW I just finished learning this song the standard way. I'd love to learn it the way you're playing it. Is there any way you can send me the tabs? or is there a site where you learned to play it this way? I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance - and if for some reason it's not possible, that's okay too.

[RayFan10]

viva boca

[HeadshotsSe7en]

I saw the guitar player write on another video that he doesn't have anything written down, it's all in his head. Kind of a shame because I wish there was a tab.

[musicdream822]

Beautiful, a masterpiece!

[mugthepriest]

I only can say one thing..you're a CHAMP!!!

[WilburyVision]

Lovely job - especially those passing chords as you go up the neck. I could never work them out!

[philipatoz]

WHAT? No beard? I knew something had changed with your tone!

Just discovered your videos yesterday - what terrific playing and a great musical lexicon of tunes you cover. I like the cut of your jib, mate!

[ekul11zz]

amazing

[Mariannelfk]

...all you need is the "roof-top" in England! Love it!

[yvetteclaire]

Wonderful but it's called Dig A Pony, that's my only criticism. :)

[playerbru]

How nice!! Very good! : )

[carvetop01]

Excellent!

[frederickus]

excellent!!!  i'm sitting here playing along!

[negra1680]

Maravilloso!! (wonderful!!)... I like very very much your versions.. thak for that...

[sitkatop]

Your playing Is amazing, but do you ever do any singing of these classic songs?

[willowandmonk]

great! wish you teach St Vincent to play this on guitar, since she's already trying to...

[FritzOmnibus]

As usual, WOW!

This version covers all the bases and hangs it all on the fretboard. I always loved the intro of this song... soulful and slightly weird... that's the Lennon way.

[MagLinsen]

Ganz toll! Schöner Ton ... klasse ausgewogen!

(just: Great!)

[bom2]

this rules. btw i love your rain song cover also

[pobrepatitopereyra]

Exelente!

[ScarTissuetwo]

this is amazing

[petitececile08]

congratulations!

you're great!

[potentialcarnie]

Reminds me of Les Paul. Playing all the parts on a six string :)

[digitaldown]

very impressive! both on the arrangement and the execution! you really did a great song justice

[ummm6yeah]

this is a great guitar cover!

was it hard to learn this song?

[rothsky1]

Great Version of a great song!

[fishe153]

You have like, 18 Beatles songs or something I beleive, I really like all of them! All of your playing is great!

[Luca2352]

That was fantastic..I have been a Beatle fan for over 40 years..Well done mate

[wamouse]

One of my all time favorite songs. Great job!

[chipdouglas42]

Awesome. that looks so fun to play

[EdVedder5]

A lesson on how to play this PLEASE!!

[AndyPino012]

Sounds great.

[Arens14]

great job, jow!

[6j6s6a]

DIG A PONY is my favorite song off that album.

[GreatestDane92]

awesome! very soothing.

[chris1969kw]

One of my favorite Beatles songs! Awesome.  I envy you classical fingerstyle guitarists, being able to chord, melody and bass all at once sometimes! Incredible, and inspiring! thanx for posting

[maunaka0ne]

Making the guitar sing EH?

Good job!

[skootmagoot]

nice axe

[LiarsNightmare]

BEAUTIFUL!

[rkodavey]

Great song. Only beef is, it's called "Dig a Pony," not "I Dig a Pony." Sounds nitpicky, I know, but these Beatles songs are like sacred Gospel to me.

[billrdk50]

perhaps he was confused by the actual first line of the song being "I dig a pony".

[thefoxmandog]

it says I Dig a Pony on the original vinyl.

[derbesy4]

so great.

[buskerbuoy]

That must feel like a great buzz to have nailed that song.

[Colemancab]

Wow, very talented :)

[rockwillnerverdie]

Man, you're kinda master playing the guitar...

you should release a work...

Great!!!!

[averynb1218]

Do you play piano too? Because you kind of play the guitar like a solo jazz pianist in that you provide your own bass line, chords, and block the melody. Which is much harder to do on guitar haha.

[looooong]

so good , gives me goosebumps just listening

[rthomastx]

Mr. Lennon smiles down upon you sir.

[buskerbuoy]

Sorry I meant to press the thumbs up icon.

[kevij]

Yeah. That kills me. very good

[yaniturbote]

muy bien master sos un capo ,te tocas todo,saludos.

[kuba0521]

very nice :]

[pawnthesword]

is it me or do you look like john lennon..

[senhorpanda]

Excellent Job! Congrats!!!!

[theonewiththecap]

this song sounds like an anthem. i'll buy a hat, put it on, and then take it off. well done!!!

[Alexxxman2006]

Best Beatles Instrumental cover ever, you sir are one fantastic guitar player you should be selling records

[RexNunc]

very very nice

[mikazack]

Wow! Apart from being a great guitarist this guy has really grasped the song! It's still bluesy...! Great song, great interpretation!

[chalyk]

man, i love hearing and watching you play. fantastic stuff!

[TheYoungMusician]

Nice. Very original. You made a different way of playing it.

[drewbsdude]

that was very good

[lizzyann85]

*hats off*

[BeerDhrinker]

Astonishing. John would approve!

[no121807]

You can actually make your guitar speak...that's pretty amazing.

[FuiSoyYsereUnGil]

I was just thinking that. (how he imitates vocals)

[deanedgx]

Wow, you are an amazing guitar player.

[bragee]

thumbs up

[flacora]

Great Job

[yawhateverlogmein]

I can tell you really loved Lennon's song craftmanship. Me too... long live John's songs. I'm learning to play "Hold On" from his first solo album as we speak. I'ts not too hard.

[alansmart7]

dig it!

[brsiltman]

sounds perfect!

[kennylofton1028]

have you ever heard the song blestemp? it's dead on. you so such an amazing job with all your songs troubleclef! rock on!

[blestemp]

sounds nothing like Dig A Pony

[razorman916]

fuck you blestemp

[Olivegal55]

Give it a listen once more =)

Maybe check your hearing as well =)

[reynolds101]

lmao You sir have probably never heard the song.

[violinbabe520]

you are an idiot.

[slimshady1111]

amazing i love how you play the lead and rythym

[wilsonmohill]

Beautiful! One of my favorite Beatles tunes and you did it proud.

[J22NOWELL]

great job I just started taking lessons two weeks ago and you have inspired me to practice more and really dedicate myself to it.

[troubleclef]

great. keep on playing. cheers

[tomscotland]

very nice, great interpretation, yet faithful. 5*

[AMFilmsMedia]

You rock dude!!!!!

[timyflo]

great job!

[GoingFar77]

You working on recording these to CD yet? I just paid $8 for Stephen Bennett's acoustic Beatles, and while it was good, I would gladly have paid double for yours.

[troubleclef]

thanks. no cd's. would be freaked out about copyright issues when money becomes involved, y'know. any cd i do would be originals and public domain stuff most likely.

[mrchiho]

A beautiful reondition of one of my favourite songs, truely awe inspiring. Thank you for sharing it.

[guitarcrazy76]

I second catchersmitt0's messege. 'Organic' is a great way to desribe the Beatles music - and your playing!

[troubleclef]

thanks a lot

[InvisibleScience]

amazing - had to watch it again immediately =]

[troubleclef]

thanks. watch it with feebiee singing (video response attached)

[mittensP]

You should rename your top e-string "Paul". He's always chirping in on the high harmony vocal as is your e-string.

[chz999]

Nice. That was a really good job. Kinda tough to nail it, but I think got it. cheers.

[Zepster77]

This sorta thing cannot be "tabbed out"... sorry... just dig the vibes & maybe if you're lucky & practice a lot you'll be able to lay it down like this cat!

[ajay999999]

U cant sing then?

U never b a beatle.

[catchersmitt0]

It sounds so wonderful when you play it like that. Beatles songs are deceptive... simple on the surface but organically rich and lovely.

[troubleclef]

thanks.

[guitarcrazy76]

I second that 'organic' is a great description here!!!

[mu301nh]

this shows the genius of george harrison well, great intrepretation

[elchaqlennon]

you are an excellent guitar player

[troubleclef]

thank you much

[cacodrillo]

muy bueno man

[WileERobby]

Another gem... I truly enjoy listening to your musical artistry.

[saulgood33]

SICK!!

[chiperten]

I know you say no tabs but one of the beatles songs tabbed would make all of us sooo very happy. Great work my man.

[jreyes87]

dude you're a bad ass... and yeah man get the beard back!

[morrisonkurtlennon]

ud make the beatles happy

[momominnosh]

Like you better with the beard! Again, the playing is VERY impressive. Thanks!

[caesarcerf]

i play pretty well and MUST give it up. magnificent playing, mate!

[skpower92]

YOu shaved!!
