I Need You by Lynyrd Skynyrd

Lynyrd Skynyrds classic blues song accompanied by me playing cello pizzicato style. Lynyrd Skynyrd is one of the best southern blues/rock bands of all time.

I have played cello by ear for a month and a half. I am finding the ease of sliding my fingers on the fretless fingerboard exhilarating.

@Kevin3308 Thank you. It's fun to play like this. It's nice not having frets. Makes sliding smoother sounding and easier on the fingers.

Thank you very much. I'm hoping to be able to put some time into the cello this winter. I have a long, long way to go. Good thing it's for fun...

Cellooo you got a bass! ;p

@waynefagerlund You are welcome! My playing the Cello is for fun, but I'm in orchestra and the Youth Symphony in my town. I love it! It is a great instrument!

[waynefagerlund]

It could be used that way, though I'm not sure it will reach the lowest notes of an acoustic bass. That would probably work better with a microphone or a pick-up for a little amplification.

Do you think it's possible to use this instrument instead of acoustic bass guitar?

Not kidding! Just a thought, never tried myself.

Thanks
