You are aware that 19th century is 1800's, correct?

In which case, the dating of it is about...100 or so years off.

Your fingers look extremely tense, but maybe you're going for a percussive feel.

I am fully aware of the time period saying the 19th century i am implying that it was purchased near the end of the 19th century. if you read the description it says near the turn of the 20th century. so it is technically a 19th century guitar but purchased in the final years of the 19th century. It was purchased through a Sear style catalogue in about 1890-1900 the exact date isn't know my dad and i restored it to playing quality. so the guitar is about 100 years old if not more.

I see, I presumed it was being played in the 19 century, not purchased.

oh no, this was played only a few months ago :P but the guitar was most definitely purchased in the 19th century

very good but the timing is a but off... idk if you were reading sheet music or not, but you should hear the song again to see what i'm talking about.

[raw665]

no i know what you mean, i just changed it up a bit idk if it sounds better or not but i just think it feels better to play with a different feel. glad you liked it
