Amateur guitar playing hack for many years, never played for an audience until YouTube showed up! All the stuff here is instrumental, you won't catch me singing ;)

Currently enjoying fingerstyle arrangements of classic rock/pop, own versions as well as arrangements by others. Style is a cross between classical guitar and thumbpick boom chic.

Steel string acoustic guitar is a Maton EM225C with standard AP4 pickup. Nylon string is Yamaha CGX171CCA with 2 way pickup. Audio is fed direct to PC when videoing.

FAQ
-----
Q: Can you send me the tab to [x]?
A: Click on the link I provided above for my tab site.

Q: Can you tab out the song [x] for me?
A: No, sorry, I've got a lifetime of transcriptions already planned, not taking requests!

Q: Can you redo the song [x] so I can see the finger positions better/make a lesson on song [x]?
A: No, sorry, all I plan on doing is vids and tabs.

Q: How long have you been playing for?
A: I was given my first guitar when I was 7...so I've been playing on and off for 30 years. I probably should be a better player by now then eh! ;)

Q: Ha ha, your face/mouth/lips look funny!
A: Yep, that's guitar face. You can't fight it; if you try to stop guitar face then you won't be able to play properly. Guitar face is usually worse when reading from sheet - if the tune is memorised then guitar face usually isn't so bad.

Q: What is the easiest song to learn?
A: From my tabs, go with Here Comes the Sun. It doesn't require thumb independance. For Naudo-style stuff, go with Baby Can I Hold You. Be warned - Canon in D is _very_ hard to play, maybe start with the others frist.

Q: How do you get such a clear sound on your videos?
A: I plug the guitar directly into my computer, with a video feed from a webcam. I have written an article about this at http://jaw.iinet.net.au/stu...

Q: How do I tune my guitar for "Dropped D"?
A: Dropped D just means the 6th string is a D instead of an E. This is easiest done by playing open string 4th(D) and 6th(normally E) at the same time while twisting the 6th string tuning peg down. When it hits D, you'll hear the 2 notes are the same but an octave apart - ie both are D. I usually go past a bit, then back up slowly, to ensure there is no slack in the string.

Q: When is the next song coming out?
A: I churn out an arrangement every 6-8 weeks which is about how much my family can tolerate my guitar playing!
