[Alicecullen9]

I love this song, and you're very good!!

[NoGood2007]

Nice finger picking.

The tuning on this is by far the strangest I've ever play on ...

The low E string is tuned UP to D and the high E string is tuned drop D. --quoted from elsewhere.

[SaileAway]

Im pretty sure that that would break the sixth string..

[NoGood2007]

Well, I play it w/ that tuning. And hasnt broke once.

[SaileAway]

So you're tuning it a whole step higher than an octave above?

[NoGood2007]

Let me explain it a lil better than the quote I wrote is leading. This is the same tuning as the album song is, to the tee.

Tune your guitar like E A D G B E.

Take your 6th E string, which is the fat one, and make it tuned to the second fret of your A string.

Now for the other -

This is basically the same concept, except you're tuning the third fret of the B string to match the sound of the first string, which is the smallest string on the guitar, E.

[SaileAway]

oooh ok. Yah, that would be a B on the bottom, not a D.

[NoGood2007]

read above, dunno why it didnt post as reply.

[xMOE]

Really nice

[lakeofkeego187]

[campfirestring]

[fattkelso]

[mistakenshyness]

wow really nice guitar and singing

[apollosgirl]

Beautiful cover. I love it. You sang it and played it very well.

[gurglechunks]

great job

did you find the tabs somewhere or figure them out yourself?

[missmisery147]

Yayness.

You have the perfect voice.

I swear, you do.

Great Jorb!

[campfirestring]

not much, just a little mic for doing things like commentaries on your home videos.you can get one at radioshack or best buy for not alot.

[churchboose]

this is my favourite song by iron and wine, and you did a really great cover.are you using a pickup in that guitar/preamp/mic?

[campfirestring]

nope, the little mic on the guitar is picking up everything.

[churchboose]

wow. how much was that mic?

[campfirestring]

not much, just a little mic for doing things like commentaries on your home videos.you can get one at radioshack or best buy for not alot.

[joeburton77]

great job dude, i think that your picking patterns are a bit more accurate than mine, but it's all good - 5/5 :)

[bkwhitney]

Hey J.  Your dad said you've gotten pretty good, but I'm impressed! Good luck with it :)

Brian

[tg440766]

Awesome guitar playing! You have a good voice but project man. I have a hard time with that too. Start singing louder even if it doesn't sound as good to you.

[campfirestring]

um, i bought the mike and taped it to the guitar. lol people were asking me to put one up so they could hear my soft vioce.

[iwearbathrobes]

Is that a custom mic you're using on the neck, or did you rig that up yourself?
