I've always wondered: you're guitar isn't in standard tuning right? because when i try to play some of you're songs, they don't sound right. What is it tuned in? Can you give me the notes of each string? And is it always tuned like that? Sorry that i'm asking some many questions but i just started to play the guitar a year ago and i'm REALLY interested in this type of music.

I don't take lessons, I learn by looking and hearing. :)

I very rarely use alternate tunings. The tuning in this song is standard: EADGBE

youre mentioning scent and how it triggers memories... its how the olfactory system (sense of smell) and limbic system (where memory and emotion lives, amongst other things) works together. im an aromatherapist and learned about this, since we dont want to trigger any bad memories with any client we treat, its meant to be a pleasant experience. :-)) - like your music is a most pleasant experience, i love it! thanks!

Hi John,

I'll try to keep this short. You are my favorite guitarist on earth and I Love your must more than anything. No matter where I look, your music beats all by far. I've only been able to learn a song or two that you've done, but I still enjoy it so much.

Question: When did you start? How many people do you perform in front of normally? How did you learn (Your right hand movements)?

A friend who hopes to learn a lot of your songs,

Ben :)

what camera do you use, and at what frame rate or setting do have it on that can get the strings to not become a blur when you film?

that looks great and I would love to achieve that for one of my videos

thanks!

@mexicandowndastreet4 It might be because of the type of string. In most of his videos, if not all, he uses classical guitar strings which are made of nylon. Most acoustic guitars come with a set of metal strings, and that's probably the case with you.
