"G, As In Gone" -- Acoustic guitar fingerstyle solo

[tiffanyy410]

I absolutely adore the way you play and I love how your guitar sounds! 

[swacoustic]

what tuning? It's not just dropped d is it?

[redavide1]

@swacoustic Plain old dropped D . . .

I noticed that you play without any finger picks. Since I play banjo and I use finger picks, what are some ways to strengthen one's fingers to play guitar? Thanks.

[redavide1]

@drafthorselover Nothing in particular, except play regularly and keep the fingernails on your right hand long enough to use as picks.

Due to an answer to a prayer, someone at my church gave me a beautiful sunburst Yamaha guitar to play. It sounds very good, but I am hoping some day soon to purchase another Martin HD 28. Nothing sounds like a Martin. Keep on playing.

@drafthorselover

I'll keep playing if you keep praying! Hope you get your Martin. (By the way, the guitar in this video is a Collings CJ . . .)

[drafthorselover]

Beautiful tune. I agree. I would like the tab also. Is that a Martin you are playing? I used to have an HD 28, but I had to sell it to pay bills. I hope to have another one someday.

@drafthorselover Thanks. The guitar is a Collings CJ. I don't have tab for this tune. Hope you get another guitar soon . . .

Funny to meet accidentally my friend Thomas(kiaweking)here at nearly the same time!

[kiaweking]

Ha Ha Ha......

Nothing funny about that. We both have good taste in music :-)

Be sure to check out his "Little Martha" cover.

Aloha my friend,

Thomas

[kiaweking]

Very nice. I like how you get the serene mood with the open tuning.

Aloha from Hawaii,

Thomas

Thanks for listening -- tuning is dropped D . . .
