Early Mornin' Rain - 12 string - Gordon Lightfoot

Slow & easy does it - jam along folks; Capo up to 3rd, drop E to D & play chords D, DMaj7, G & A7.... for chilling out by the BBQ on a warm summer's evening..

Good job. Love the harmonica. Are you on an empty stage? Sounds like you are in a lonely empty auditorium...or airport...? Good appropriate sound for this song.. Please play more.

@StevieB1362 Thanks Stevie - it's recorded in a small room but with Reverb added afterwards using sound-editing software.

Just a quick question for you Jim because I can't seem to find a confident answer, when i adjust my truss rod should I keep the strings in tune or detune it first?

[Lowdenjim]

If lowering the action (tightening the truss rod) I detune it first - dropping tension down a couple of tones. Adjustment should be done slowly (a quarter turn only) and strings brought back to concert pitch to check action and intonation. The wood should be allowed to adjust to the new tension gradually before making further adjustment where required.
