i've gotten much better at playing this song. this video is old.

How do you get a mic to only pick up one string like that? Sounds like one is next to my ear and the other five are in the next room.

in this video i used a cable from my pickup on the guitar's bridge to my computer. the sound recorded from it has a very weak low end and a strong high end, so higher notes sound louder than everything else. The high E string is affected the most by this.

Yeah has speed up way to fast. The guitar is to high pitched for being played that low on the frets.

[bauerb2]

i would agree.

this video is 2 years old and i have improved. i bought a nice microphone so the recording should sound nicer if i were to record this again. i do have a capo on the 3rd fret.

maybe in the future i will record this again. definitely a little slower too :)

Wow, interesting technique there! most fingerstyle guitar players will make use of their thumbs (on both hands), where the boom-chick will hit bothe the bass note and counter-rhythm and the other hand will get the F bass note so as to prevent muting the strings below and for a faster reach, but otherwise, you still pulled it off nicely!

i made this video before i learned how to use my left hand thumb to hit notes on the 6th string. it does help a lot though.

nice, but you could tune up your guitar little better...

Well, guitar pich blabla , sound blabla, technique blabla, GREAT FUCKING JOB BRO!!! You are playing a tune normally played by a living legend and not many people out there will and can do the same!!

[dubskinz]

You need to alternate the bass more!!!!

[Djd714]

very VERY well done!

Cool man,i like seeing a young guy learning to play music,instead of trying to spin records backwards
