Silent Night - acoustic guitar

TAB at http://tallstrom.com/dlfree.htm

A minimalistic arrangement of this beautiful melody, added a harmony to the second verse.

With this, I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Thank you for watching and listening . Let´s hope for a great 2010!

Played on the Loef "big parlour" Augusta, in open D tuning, capo 1st fret (I used the capo mainly to get rid of some string rattle...)

Cheers

Hej martin! jag blir så inspirerad av dina låtar här på youtube... :) och hur gör du så ljusena tänder sig? tack för dina underbara videos:) MvH:kasper

@kr002 Hej Kasper - tack, vad kul att höra!

Jag glömde tända ljusen när jag spelade in... Men eftersom kameran senare stod på precis samma plats gjorde jag en liten inspelning till med ljusen tända. I mitt videoediteringsprogram la jag in enbart de tända ljusen (med s k maskning) på en ny "kanal". Då hade jag också möjligheten att göra en intoning av denna vid andra versen, bara som en förbryllande effekt. Det du ser precis på slutet är enbart den kanalen.

Yeah it is true very nice guitars but where to buy ?

[pinofluvius]

@barzoman2 I think you must buy directly from Olav Loef himself ...

[barzoman2]

Nice play

Q: what is the model number of this guitar and brand name ?  thanks

[pinofluvius]

@barzoman2 Hi, thanks!

It´s a hand built Loef "big parlor", he builds his guitars as individuals rather than models - this one is called Augusta. Search for "Loef guitars" on the web

Hey Martin,

Congratulations on yet another amazing song. You should post a super-fast fingerpickin' version of Jingle Bells to supplement this masterpiece and round off your Christmas repertoire. I'd cry tears of joy.

Beautiful man, really beautiful. Listening to you playing that I started to imagine me and two great women closest to my heart spending christmas together. Unfortunately I can just dream about this. Thank you very much and Merry Christmas to you too man.
