From Soup To Nuts - Ragtime Guitar - Ton Van Bergeyk

[reprac9]

Such a lovely TVB piece & played sooo well. I"m looking at the tab , & my fingers are saying , " dont even think about going there " !! :))

[johnsonhogg]

It was a difficult one this one - thinking about the album I dont think any were actually easy piece on it - I find them all near impossible - I suppose you just have to keep at it - keep trying - thanks for your comment - Johnson

[owlet1963]

@reprac9 LOOOL,but your musical pride yells louder than your fingers and it says"How can you know, you didn't TRY!" :P

Hallo JH. Best compliment is to get your cd isn t it. Is it still availlable or can you send me one, if possible with some tabs?And do you play an extra wide neck?

[johnsonhogg]

Thank you for your comment - I have not recorded any CD's - tabs ? - try to find stuart Frost - extra wide neck - no - i would say the thinnest neck possible - the guitar is just a yamaha FG340 ( 2 ) - thanks again for your comment - Johnson

[Linedanger]

A beautiful piece, played beautifully. Thanks

[johnsonhogg]

glad you liked it - really thanks

I DISCOVERED RAGTIME SOLO GUITAR VIA

Ton Van Bergeyk AND THE THE SONG WAS

SOUP TO NUTS RAG. IT TOOK ME 3 MONTHS

TO GET IT DOWN, BUT THAT WAS 25 YEARS AGO. NOW THAT I AM BACK INTO RAGTIME, I AM SURE TO GET IT RIGHT. MR BERGYCK, YOU ARE THE BEST

[johnsonhogg]

Sorry but I havent heard or got the tracks you ask for. Thanks for your comments.

[frawgface]

absolutely Phenomenal!!

[ddanze]

johnsonhogg, you genius - i'm sure you

could play this tune better than me...but

it's fun... need to work on sound setup...

maybe a pickup or something....any suggestions?

[johnsonhogg]

Thanks for the video response David, didnt know you are also an arranger, I will learn it. Hopefully you will generate more of your own good stuff for us to enjoy

[acousticland]

it's a wonderful exercise of Bergeyk style.

compliments.

[johnsonhogg]

I am still listening to your Bay of Kings - Thanks

[markestainforth]

Great playing. Looking forward to the next one. The tarrega seemed to go down well - thanks!

[ddanze]

Johnson, that is fabulous! Sounds every bit

as good as TVB 30 yrs ago! I see you not

trying it here, but having conquered it!

Still I am trying to smooth out Ragtime Nightmare and some other TVB tunes. The

challenge for me is relaxing the fingers

correctly.

[johnsonhogg]

Thanks David, glad you liked it. Wasnt easy that one

[HerbDavies911]

Hang up the test tubes your guitar playing is much better!

[johnsonhogg]

Thanks Herb, long time no see, hope all is well

[0ldfinger]

There are about 80 things I can't do in the first 30 seconds of this one...fantastic! 5*

[NeezyDeezy]

Incredible, this is one of my favorites. So good to see you try it here.

If I could play this one like you can, I don't think I'd ever stop playing it, it's so fun! :)
