So, I've Been Messing With Fingerstyle

Last edited Sat Mar 18, 2023, 07:20 AM - Edit history (1)

Always been a pick player, but thought I'd mess with something different.
I'm playing Bron-Yr-Aur (off Physical Graffiti) & Malaguena.
Takes some getting used to, BUT.......
I started using the right hand more assertively and surprisingly it was easier to do that.
Who figured playing a little louder would make it easier?

2. It's An Acoustic Guitar!

No volume knob to turn down. LOL!
BTW: if anyone is interested in playing that Zeppelin song, it won't sound right (and will be harder to play) unless the guitar is tuned (strings 1 to 6) E C G C A C. It's a C6 chord.
That low C is critical to the sound.
So, I have to work on these 2 songs on two different guitars!
