Chestnuts - John Konesky

In the spirit of Christmas, here's my chord-melody arrangement of Chestnuts, or The Christmas Song. Oddly enough, this was the first song I remember playing for Kyle Gass when we first met, which resulted in me playing for Trainwreck. So I'll dedicate this to him, and everyone else I get the pleasure of playing music with in my life! Merry Christmas!!! Performed on my Seagull SWS Mini-Jumbo.

Awesome sound. Was this the actual performance/recording or was it synced to prerecorded audio? Either way it's beautiful. That stache is like your guitar badass talisman.

You made me feel like I was next to a warm fire place on a snowy winter day. I think you need to be in an old spice commercial.

@PeteWojMusic While I'm sure there is some truth to what you said - I have to defend my Martin OM-1.. it is one of the best playing/sounding acoustics I have ever played even though it's one of there lower end models. I feel like I got it at a steal of a price. I'll probably still get a Seagull someday, they really some of the best bang for buck guitars out there. Thanks for the response

@clintmiller23 shoulda bought the Seagull Maritime SWS Mini-Jumbo.... It SMOKES the Martin OM-1. Not even close. Put this one on your wishlist, my friend. Hell, Return the Martin if you csn. This Guitar is that good. I own a bunch of high end Gibsons, Martins, Breedloves and Larrivee's, and this guitar hangs with if not beats most of them....

how many seagulls do you own? I almost bought one exactly like you're playing but I found a great deal on a Martin OM-1 that I couldn't pass up. I'd still like to get a Seagull someday
