I'm an Evanston resident and lifetime Chicagoan...recently interested in folk/gospel through a band I play in...the Wailen Mahalins...can a guitarist with years of training be proficient in Dobro?

[robadobro]

the short answer is...absolutely. The long answer is that all depends! technique wise, previous experience in fingerpicking goes a long way on dobro. Learning to play with good intonation and getting the right feel with the bar just takes time...

Hope this helps!

really good....wished it was longer.

Thanks! This was meant as a demonstration of a very simple arrangement for a group class that I teach at the Old Town School of Folk Music in Chicago. I wanted to make it as simple as possible; just to get the feel of the tune for anyone who is new to the dobro.

Regards,

Hi, I am taking Dobro lessons from The great Curtis Burch. I try to watch all the video I can of others playing to help me with my playing which is at the neophyte level . Have been playing rhythm guitar for 40 years. Playing Dobro is a different ballgame. Thanks for posting these.
