Thanks Jesse, I'll have a go at this on my acoustic when I have a few hours. Whats the slaping sound in between notes? Do you just hit the guitar with your palm?

[Jesseblues]

Yes:-)Take care,Jesse

[redcloud12]

[Jesseblues]

Open A ,but before you tune it,I tuned the guitar a whole step down:-)

I know this is an old vid, but, thank you so much for sharing this.

I have had your main vid favourited for years and it's only today that I have finally bought a resonator.

I honestly can't thank you enough for the time you have spent uploading this. It really is helping me a lot. :-)
