Tim:

Enjoying your lessons. Very helpful. I hope you keep them coming. Got a chuckle out of the facial expression at the end of "I Can't Give You Anything But Love." Eventually, I wonder if you would consider a lesson on how to move away from the arpeggio exercises, which I realize are crucial, to making music. Or maybe that just comes as a natrual extension of the practices. Thanks!

@ezelkins Thanks! Will bear it in mind for future lessons. Tim

Tim, what mic & interface are you using to record these videos? (for the gypsy guitar, and the Laney amp)

BTW, Great playing and lessons. I've personally benefited quite a bit from them. I've been playing your etudes, and that's how I finally started to sound somewhat like a GJ player...

@oylebiseyyok Thanks, I'm pleased the lessons are useful! I am using a Groove Tubes GT33 mic, into an Apogee Duet.

@Tim - I love your arrangement of this classic! I never get tired of this song.  I'm tempted to ask about the tomatoes and cucumbers but will keep on topic. :D

1. What guitar are you using in this video?

@thrip Thnx Tim :0)

[thrip]

@Dames12345 It's an E9 with a B in the bass :)

Hi Tim , liking all you new stuff by the way , but back to this one.

The turn around you do at 1.40 is slightly different to the begining bit and I can't quite pick out the 2nd chord your playing. Is it Bm6 or E9 or something else?

Cheers Dames :0)
