[ScottTsai]

hi Scott i think u said in one of your videos that u have small fingers. i aslo got that problem. i tried to do the second chords of this song (3rd fret of the low e (d) string. 5th fret on the d string, 2nd fret on the g string and 3rd fret on the b string. i tried to do it with the thumb but my hand is too small. any tips?

[ScottTsai]

@lotem102 all I can say is that you have to keep stretching you hands. try to have the whole palm of your hand against the back of the neck. and also it helps if you rotate your hand downwards so that your fingers can reach over more. hope that helps a little!

amazing..

best cover i've seen..

tommy would be very proud of u!

[ScottTsai]

@Pirusha thank you so much, i would hope so!

I've been playing the guitar since I was 7 years old and I'm now 52. I lived for the guitar when I was your age and I still rarely ever go a day without giving it at least an hour of practice. Of course, I'm good but I NEVER was as advanced as you ... especially when I was at the age you are now. I have to say that you kids have a wonderful advantage with the exposure to other guitarists that I never had back in the 60s. Scott, your playing is very smooth and a real pleasure to listen to.

oh shut the hell up yankeeG

Hey Scott, awesome videos, just had a question.

The chord in the chorus (looks like a double bar over the 2nd and 4th frets, with the pinkie out on the 5th fret of the high E, and the hammer on the 3rd fret of the B string) is really tricky for me to catch. I can handle the fingering of it, but how exactly do you play it / which notes do you hit?

[DannyLoef1]

I have learned a lot from your playing, and from your lessons.

Thanks for all the effort!

And I'm glad you even got some recognising from big T himself.

you deserve that much!

very well done mate! I have a cover of this song on my channel, I recorded it the night before i played it for tommy. he said the only thing i had wrong was the first hard chord at the end of the intro. he says he covered two strings with his thumb. and also plays the high e string on the 3rd fret. it was very hard to learn but i did it and showed him and he said it was the closest hes ever heard, give it a try, its a real stretch! all the best

[satosan1991]

very nice :D

but somthing lack XD

[SoulSurferGS8]

@lotem102 Try a Shorter Scale guitar like a Gibson or a Seagull even! Might be what you need for your smaller hands. Sure works better for mine! My Gibson j-185 is a ton easier to play than my Taylor! Hope this helps!

[lotem102]

@ScottTsai hi Scott thx for the fast answer. i tried to do what u said but it's still hard. i got an alternative - i use open strings instead of the strings and frets that Tommy uses. Ill let you know if i'll ever film a video of me playing it (well i'm just on the intro...) thx again, Lotem
