Somewhere OverThe Rainbow

[fngrpkn06]

Splendid rendition!

[Argyle473]

Thanks a million! I've been out of playing for several years and gettn ready to start back with a new Redline Peabody. I'm going to try out that EBDGBD tuning.

[OnRuggedRoad]

What a wondrous rendition! This tune and how you played it is living poetry. Ciao

[talkinglens1]

Beautiful. Unusual tuning.

[curbshoppin]

real good cant get enough

[ke0kie]

I've re-watched this perhaps 15+ times, heart warming and inspirational! I'm looking to learn dobro in the next 6 months, so please keep these amazing videos coming!

[gatorlinni]

Thank you.

[mattmoo1007]

I've heard probably a hundred arrangements of this song and your's ranks near the very top. Beautiful. And your Scheerhorn sounds so warm and good.

[bmxtahoe]

Amazing

[TomEMun]

Beautiful!

[buskerjohn1]

Best Arrangement of that song I have heard

[greekflatpicker]

Hope you don't mind stealing some licks from your wonderful version.

Superb in every way!

[TexMcMojo]

You have a beautiful touch on the dobro. Mahalo!

[kbless551]

Wow Greg, you have any albums out?

[reckonimokie]

what brand guitar is this your playing?

[aksliderdobro]

@reckonimokie It's a Scheerhorn.

[adamtylermiller]

beautiful, man!

[countryalexander]

Cannot be played better!

[RockingChairU]

Wonderful job on this, one of my favorite songs!! Thanks!

[morghath]

oh my sweet did it for me thanks

[banjophobic]

Doesnt get any more beautiful than that.

[jsabastian147]

How do you do that harmonic at the 24? I can't get it for the life of me..I can play everything but that in this song and it's driving me insane!

[aksliderdobro]

@jsabastian147 You put your thumbpick and ring fingertip together, then strike the string so that your fingertip touches the harmonic node right at the 24th fret and the pick plucks the string simultaneously. With this method you can strum whole chords of harmonics. It will take some practice to find the right hand position and is much easier to show than describe!

Oh my god. I've been playing standard axe for 35 years. I got a Sq neck dobro 1 month ago and was feeling pretty good about my sliding around... till now!

This clip just opened up so many doors. But one Q: What tuning are you in?

Regards from a Sunburnt Aussie.

[aksliderdobro]

The tuning is regular G tuning with the low G dropped down to E. EBDGBD.

[birdman7447]

Greg - I've been a fan of yours since I first heard your version of Panhandle Rag in D position about 3 years ago. I learned to play your version and it's been a big hit around here in West Texas. I now try to keep up with your new stuff. Anyway, I tabbed your version of "Rainbow" in TablEdit format. I would like to send it to you to see what you think and make any corrections before I give it to anyone else. I teach reso guitar and have been playing about 30 years now. Keep up the great work.

[resopicker]

Am I seeing 24 frets, or have my eyes gone south with my sanity? Greg your playing is just this side of Heaven, thank you.

[siegelab2]

What a sweet, soulful arrangement. I checked Rob Anderlik's site and didn't find the tab arrangement. Is it available elsewhere for downloading or to purchase?

[nickkruge]

Such a beautiful and thoughtful arrangement! And what a beautiful tone you get, even through my tiny laptop speakers! I'm enjoying all of your solo arrangements. I am just learning more complex dobro stuff and I tried to transcribe your arrangement. I got a lot of it but was wondering if you wouldn't mind shedding a little light on what you you are doing at the end of the bridge (1:33) for that beautiful (F#aug?)chord + harmonic. I just can't figure out the position/fingering!

[aksliderdobro]

Thanks for your kind words. The passage you are asking about starts by picking the 3rd string 7th fret, slide up to the 11th and pick the open 1st together with the 11th fret 2nd which gives you the Daug chord made up of D, F# and Bb. The chime is made at the 24th fret of the open 1st string using the fingertip method. Glad you like my arrangement, hope this helps.

[PhilCLG4]

Best dobro player I ever heard.//Phil

[rickthaler]

@IBG67 Yep...as wonderful as Greg is...and he IS wonderful.....Jerry Douglas is just a mind blower!...He is THE man when it comes to the squareneck.

[rothrock65]

You're the dobro man! TR

[TimBeaulieu44]

very good song you have a very good sounds too

[pcheeseman1957]

is that so yo can get your minor chords without pulling strings?

[aksliderdobro]

It gives me more major and minor chords to chose from.

[pcheeseman1957]

[aksliderdobro]

Thanks, the low G is lowered to E. EBDGBD
