Man that's great, basically flawless. It seems you get drawn in by alot of the same tunes I do (I'm 17 and have a great love of Chet, Doyle, Jerry Reed, Tommy Emmanuel etc.). First time I heard this one was from The Seekers. Are you dropping the low E to a D for this one? (without the capo)

Hi, Thank you! Yes I am dropping the low e to a D.

[BluegrassForte]

So glad you liked this song Magnus!

[Muzikusmultiensis]

What a mastery! You play as if you were born with the guitar in your hands at least 30 years ago. Amazing talent. I sincerely wish you could become Chet-like star. There are still people who love and appreciate true artists-musicians, and for them, you are star already.

[BluegrassForte]

Chet was amazing. I found him on youtube a little over a year ago and it was a great connection for me. I only wish I could have met him. Thanks for your compliments.

Gretsch'n

[JackWayneKato]

Chet would envy you... You are really good! 6 Stars!! :O)

Jack

[BluegrassForte]

Thanks Jack. I think it is the other way around, I envy Chet . . . in a good way. :o)

It is good to hear from you, it has been awhile!

Gretsch'n

Hehehe! Gretsch'n Taylor. I like that! Thanks for letting me know about the Chet board.

You are fantastic! I am definitely going to have to try to steal some of your licks! Hope I can make it to CAAS and see you play this summer.

I guess I owe you a video now....I'll try to put up a song this weekend (If I can get through the recording...I usually choke when the camera is on!).

Keep on posting!

Your buddy,

George

[BluegrassForte]

Thank you George! A new video would be great. And I know what you mean about choking when the camera is on! I won't tell you how many takes of the vocal one I did. . . .and you don't have to steal any licks!
