Washburn Rover Thumb picking "When Shiloh Comes"

Just kicking around a tune I put together on a little acoustic Washburn Rover.
It's a great little guitar that was set up for me by Oklahoma Vintage Guitar some time back.
I highly recommend them to you.
This one has a playful personality that's sometimes sassy and sometimes somber, and always available.
Get one for yourself!

Shiloh IS coming you know...

It's not no Washburn to begin with. Skylarks sells the same under their name: Skylark TG11 Travel Acoustic Guitar. So it's possibly made by some kid inn China. The saddle came partly unglued, and the case and belts smell toxic: 2 month on the porch haven't changed that. Otherwise, it plays pretty well with all the to be expected sound limitations this size must have. Reminds me somewhat of an old Western piano. Good buy.

Hi friend,

Thanks for stopping by and for sharing your great intellect with the world.

Shilo, when I was young

I used to call your name

When no one else would come

Shilo, you always came

And we'd play

Hello friend, you have a good memory, but oddly enough when I wrote this piece, I was not even thinking of Neil Diamond.

My frame of reference was more Biblical, as in Genesis 49:10.

My Shiloh refers to the coming of Christ. He came and as I mentioned in my brief notes in the song He will come again!

"Shiloh IS coming you know..."

@theodas Hey that's really good playing - do you recommend that guitar? I'm looking for something really portable..

Thanks.

Friend, I honestly haven't found a better playing guitar. In other videos I have, you'll see a Martin and also an Epiphone Les Paul. This little Rover plays and notes as well as either of those. But please keep in mind that I don't use a pick and have had the action lowered on the Rover. That no doubt helps it play so easily.

I highly recommend the little guitar.

Good luck and thanks for listening!

@crazeecl0wn apparently you care as much as I do, why else would you respond to my post.

By the way, you missed the point, its not an ad for skylark since both companies just put their names on a product.

I am expressing my disappointment for not getting a genuine Washburn. But maybe you are having a hard time understanding it. Be well!
