I know you don't likely have most of this written out, but if you did, I'd love to see it. I can't figure stuff out well on my own. I got the bass line ;)

@peterjamesnorcross this one you should be able to find online somewhere. it's in the first tab book. I don't have a tab for together alone, though the cockburn musician's group might have. The chords are a bit tricky to name off because there's so many embellishments. I guess in the main part it's D (those little figures up around the 12th fret), A7, Em, G, D. Then at the 'And though I know part' it's C, G, A, Bmin, G, A, Bmin, F, A7. This is very sketchy I realize-- sorry

Very nice cover and and very good sound.

You know what year is the 000-15s?

[TorontoLarrivee]

@mosfet33 It's from 2000, the first year of production for this model. They've started making them out of Sapele, which is uglier than Mahogany-- get a used one if you're shopping.

@TorontoLarrivee

I just bought one of the 1999 000-15s (according to Martin). All mahogany, including the neck (currently is cedar), old school decal, headplate without actual rosewood , no wings and Some upgrades as bone saddle, or a Grover Sta-tite tuners.

I am impressed with its sound.

Thanks for your advice.

@mosfet33 what a score. I expect the bone nut is a great upgrade. congrats.
