A rare gem from RT. I play it with partial capos in standard tuning. A full capo on 3rd fret and a partial over the 543 strings on fret 5. Played open this gives you a
G sus4 (GDGCDG) .... OR- the way I think of it is a DADGAD type sound up a 4th without having to correct your left hand for tuning sync.
Enjoy and email if you have any questions- I'm happy to help.

  • @fivethumbsfrank Thanks so much Frank! RT is one of the biggest influences I have.

  • @OneBigRetard Actually I wanted a Lowden but then I decided to support Dermot McIlroy and a smaller shop. I made a wise choice. People told me I sounded similar to RT so I decided to go have a listen. It was like finding a long lost relative, he inspired players that inspired me, so know I know the source of where my style came from. Thanks for listening!

  • Fantastic playing, sounds so good. I saw RT in the UK last year He played this song along with a lot of other favourites..beeswing, vincent BL meet on the ledge and others, it was pretty special after watching a lot of mediocre bands all day. RT was incredible. you do Him justice those rolls and pull offs you do are very good.

  • I take it you bought the guitar after you found out who he was!!

    Lovely voice. Lovely rendition.
