Hawaiian Slack Key Guitar - Justin's Lullaby

I know there's a group of folks that don't exactly love Barry Flanagan's style of ki ho'alu; however, I'm amazed at his skill and musical artistry. "Justin's Lullaby" (Taro Patch) is a tune I picked up a long time ago, and finally got around to record it. If you note a bit of uncertainty bending the guitar...well, it ain't exactly something I wanted to do with my new "baby", so I tried a different press method. Figured it was worth it.

Elixer (coated) light strings. Plugged into a Roland acoustic amp.

Mahalo for the compliment.

Thanks, brah. Truly freaked me out trying to bend this puppy. My Takamine is perfect for doing it.

Beautiful! Thanks for the clear video. I'm trying to learn slack key and your video helps with left hand fingering.
