  • wow, very very great, much better than anyone else ive ever seen try to cover the song. bravo, i can come nothing close to as good as you are on this song.

  • thank you, it means alot to hear that. It took a lot of hard work to get this down correctly without shortcuts or tabs

  • how would you know the tuning?

  • I've experimented with open D tuning for a few years now and started jamming acoustic songs in it, and when I first saw this video I could tell by when he hit open strings just the way it sounded it was the same tuning, which was a pleasant surprise cause I was already used to it. it's actually a pretty common tuning with acoustic songs

  • i'm learnong ot and you make it look easy...any tips???

  • without an instructional video, i can only say so much to help. watch him very closely it took me about 2 months to fully grasp even playing it every day. Unless you have access to the tabs, I would say just watch the video as many times as it takes to grasp the concepts like I did.

  • @catastrophic1983 It's actually DADGAD... But you weren't far off :)

  • AMAZING!!!

  • wow you were right this is sooo much better than your first take love it good job man -Kohl

  • Well done man. One of the best covers I've yet to see, anyone hit your caliber. Keep up the good work, I'm happy to see someone as dedicated as you.

    Again, well done. I applaud you =)

  • nice cover man, posted a cover of it meself and went the other route with it altogether"sped up" but top marks, check mine out .5/5

  • Good stuff. One of the few Drifting covers out there that keeps it chill. The rest speed it up and it just doesn't have the same sound. Yours is a good tempo and well executed. Well done!

  • you hammer great bro
