[JJF10101957]

Well played,nice guitar,nice table!

[cosmo960]

Good Job !!!!

[407bug]

Nice tone sounds sweet

[archambault65]

Wow! Absolutely outstanding! Thanks.

[trevorwenokur]

great job man!

please check my out my version too

I'm only 16 but hope to keep this music alive!

[jeffreyhsykes]

Wonderful! Well played is an understatement.

[gitgeezer]

Seen lots o' Little Martha covers...yours is still the best!

[brittain522]

Sweet!

[dannyknapp]

sounds great ! are we hearing more of your guitar or the table top ? haha, both sound good.

[billder999]

Dennis,

I love to watch you play. Your technique is smooth as velvet, so relaxed and easy looking.... you always inspire.

What's the difference between a parlor and a standard guitar? Is it true everything is an octave up?

[dturbide]

@jkshoujk

No, it's tuned like any other standard guitar but has a shorter scale. The scale is the length measured from nut to saddle. The shorter it is, the less tension. Mediums on a parlor=WOW!

[sowafication]

I could watch all your videos all day man!!!! good stuff!!!!!

[rootube808]

Very nicely done, big thumbs up.

[guitarconasor]

Sounds like you have the right riffs, but it's too fast and your timing it off in places.

[fastphil10]

I have been playing the Wolf Marshall solo arrangement of this for 20 years and never once made it sound as beautiful as this.

[JimmyJames902]

You nailed it, bro !!

[Asafrog]

you got some good sound in that kitchen!

[loondoo]

wow, sweet picking, and what a great big sound from that little Larivee! And nice rich dark color too!

[dturbide]

Thanks. I don't own this guitar anymore but I do hve an all mahogany 00 Larrivee that should be here in few weeks...

[staffansvahn]

Loved it!

Sweeeeeet guitar too...

You've got a new subscriber.

Best regards

Staffan

[Ngerty1]

Your playing is really great! And the guitar is really nice too. I am thinking about getting a P05-MT. What do you think of it?

[dturbide]

I've never played the P-05MT...played a P-05 with a spruce top a few times though...I say buy it! Larrivee parlors are some of the nicest out there today.  Cheers

[dturbide]

Yeah, I'm a regular contributor on the Larrivee forum. I love Larrivee, great guitars.

[snapperjohn1000]

why does the playing of this piece on this paticular guitar sound so authenticly correct ? this is the best version of this song ihave ever heard i should know i am 54 years old and have known this song since i was17 years old

[sonny1597]

Denis: Well, I finally 'nailed' it .. using lesson and all I finally pretty much mastered Little Martha .. never thought I could do it and I keep your video on hand so I can duplicate the strokes. After watching many renditions of Little Martha I find yours to be the 'truest' to the original .. so thanks again. Oh! Picked up a L-10 to go along with my Larrivee D-05

[fastphil10]

This is the song that made me want to play the guitar. I have been playing a Wolf Marshal arrangement for many years and never made ti sound like yours.

[MattRobsonGuru]

long live the skydog

[paigepopejoy]

Which model # is the guitar?

[2manygitars]

I think you need more magnets on the frig.

[llamawizard]

dude, INCREDIBLE tone!

[tremoloheart]

Is this the same Little Martha that you did a couple years ago? For some reason I believe this a different one. Both are masterful, but this new one is particularly articulate and precise. Very well done! Thanks for posting.

[dturbide]

This is the one and only video of Little Martha that I've done....

[newportj77]

Wow, thanks for that. Bravo!

[dturbide]

This is far and away the most popular video I've done so far. Thanks for all the nice comments.

[chiricutojones]

Awesome version of that song ! you are a ripping good guitar player ...Great job !

[swimologist8]

Like all good guitarists, you have large hands, long fingers. Wish somebody had cautioned me that small hands are a detriment to playing before I fell in love with the guitar and the sounds it "can" make.

[Minge129]

False

[weadley]

double false!

[kaymegtri123]

It was great! I could never play like that:)

[nsra1933]

Extremely nice! nice right hand technique. thanks, you made me smile.

[songwritersanex]

I went to rate this 5 stars, but when I clicked on it, it only came up three... ???

5 Stars was the intent! Sorry!

Excellent !!

[BlimpyBoy]

that, my friend, was beautifully done. there's something so cozy about those tiny guitboxes - and this one's got a great ring to it (and this is coming from a guy who wouldn't even consider an all-hogger...)

[mkrd2000]

Nice tone, nice touch. You inspired me to learn this tune for the first time after hearing the original a zillion times in the last 30 years. Thanks - !

[illflyer]

That was sweet! Thank you.

[sockenfrank]

beautiful guitar.

[detoth67]

I love Larrivee parlors!

Nice playing too!

[guitargeezer]

Very, very nice.

[jedmarum]

Yeah!!

[captainspooneye]

sweet.

[KalleBlom]

what a great sound from such a small guitar! Didn't know Mahogany sounds so warm, sweet and clear .. a little like Brazilian/Cedar

[Marseglia12345]

Pardon, What model Larrivee is that? Do you know of any for sale?

[dturbide]

It's a Larrivee all mahogany parlor, an older satin finish model which the no longer make. They do still make the occasional gloss version though. Search for a P-05MT...

[TheSmokingGuitar]

i love these larrivee parlors, theyre a little deeper than most parlors. tahts why they sound soooo good

[1i1feat]

Nailed it!! thanks!

[52unclestinky]

Hey your little guitar sounds great! Best Little Martha on Utube! True to the original and a bit more.

[gesser60]

Is that a mahogany top? Sounds great.

[ottocarpenter]

Fine picking... Fine picking... Thanks for posting.

[JubileeValence]

Jubi

[artistfood]

I love your song. Sounds beautiful. And I love your guitar too!! I love parlor guitar.

[sickstyles]

Your axe has such a rich tone. wow.

This is incredible. Very inspiring.

[strangeman509]

Such a great tune! Nice little parlor you've go there! :)

[chiefhalftown]

One of the best Little Martha's on E-bay. Very toneful parlor guitar!

[dturbide]

E-bay??

You know what...I play it too fast

[1wiesehoefer1]

hi thats nice playing best wishes from germany

[nsra1933]

you're amazing, thanks!

[buckshot151]

Good Picking!Enjoy this song perfect!

[NitsujRentip]

Dude...this is great. I own a Larrivee LV-09 and i would never ask for another guitar. What is this tuned in?

[MartyPlaysMusic]

Great! You nailed it.

[woodtone007]

excellent version - as others have said - best i've seen or heard.

Love the guitar - sounds as good as i thought they might - which is great ;-)

[chiefhalftown]

Might be the truest one on YouTube! Congrats and that little guitar sounds crankin'.

[TooLooseLeTrek]

That little guitar really belts out notes!

[ledzeppelin2102]

it's a martin

[MSB76]

ummm...

no.

[dturbide]

Actually, it's a satin finish Larrivee all mahogany parlor which I sadly no longer own. Still my Larrivee 00-50 is way more guitar, it's the best I've ever owned.

[MarshallVoit]

You're great - as is this guitar. Love my Larrivée D-05E. That guy makes one hell of a guitar, if I do say so myself.

[MOSKII58]

that was excellant what tuning are you in?

[dturbide]

open D

[MOSKII58]

hey thanx for the info, i'm a player for almost 40 yrs & thats the best rendition of "Little martha" yet & i've listened to 'em all..or the ones i could stand! anyway you have the feel,tempo & the arrangement down,

congrats great pickin..

[jedmarum]

Woo Hoo! Great job!

Great guitar. Hard to believe all that sound comes out of that little box!

[greyshiloh]

Enjoyed the solo very much. What a song...you did it right.

[batesm]

Perfection

[LUCKYBUCK22]

Great job - you got all the nuances and very percussive.

[56panhead]

You D' Man!!,...been piddling with that great song forever, but never got in the right key. Thanks for the info on tuning to Open D and capoing the 2nd to put it in,..much easier on the guitar too. Love these Larrivees,..got a D-05 and a D-09 Brazilian,...that little Parlor sounds huge!! Awesome touch you've got,..keep em' comin',..TR, Hurricane Alley(FL)

[Mouldytone]

Thanks for posting that tune. Beautifully played. I`ve been contemplating buying a Larrivee Parlor. Considering I`m listening to mono sound through cheap computer speakers, that guitar has a beautiful sound. `Course your wonderful playing doesn`t hurt!

[fenomeno71]

Like the way you slide down the neck on the decends. Nice!

[carswell98]

flawless!, just like the original

great job

[saspgmer]

Could someone search here for this guitar Stonebridge Model 00MS-33-SR - and tell me what song this is.Thanks in advance

[Plague6669]

looks like a P-05mt (Mohagany Top)

I work for Larrivee Guitars USA :D

[M4x1mus847]

Really fine Denis, the nicest sound yet.

[strat2caster]

great version bro one of the best ive heard, sweet !

[pickngrin]

Just Great! and all that sounds coming from a Parlor. Keep up the good work.

[MartyPlaysMusic]

Very nice.

[AcousticIban]

Beautiful...

[JMDenver]

Sounds incredible. I think you have the best version on YouTube..and I have my own version! I'm going to have polish mine up. keep the songs coming.

[plautus5648]

Excellent!

[humongous39]

Very nice - you make it look easy! Just bought a Larrivee OMV-60, looking forward to breaking it in.

Is this in an alternate tuning?

[dturbide]

On Eat a Peach, it`s tuned down just a bit from open E. I play it tund down to open D on my parlor but on the L-03, I would try open D, capo 2
