Nice piece and some fine playing!
Ah thanks Ivor. The tuning is open Cminor if you want to give it a try.
Do you play guitar ?
Yes.... most of my life, but in a start & stop fashion so my progress has been slow. Currently messing with hybrid picking and enjoying the playing of guys like Guthrie Trapp and Greg Koch.
Excellent choice! True masters. That's one technique I can never grasp properly.
My inspirations came from a Canadian chap named Ewan Dobson.
Learning his techniques and style gave me the confidence to move abroad..I can happily say that all of my earnings in 3 years have been from playing guitar!!
I played bar bands when I lived in TX back in the 90s regularly, but in woodshed mode now for a long time. LOL.
I rarely mess with open tunings... it's taking forever for my brain to map the fretboard in standard tuning and I'm finally getting somewhere. Don't want to confuse things LOL.
Ah I was the same.. hopefully it will come one day :)
Cheers Ivor.
