  • BoJangles, Finger Picked

    Posted by Alfred on May 18, 2021 at 4:18 pm

    I realized today I haven’t shared for 2 weeks, and I committed to myself for once a week… Well at least it is a chance to see what difference 2 weeks makes. I got a copyright strike on this one so it must be an improvement 😛 Besides, now my forever version is recorded, and it is now a back pocket song. I had 2 lyrical flubs and flubbed the last chord, but otherwise I was happy with it.

      I was able to convince myself that I wasn’t actually recording until the end lol.

      Thanks!

    Wowser! That sounds so good. Great, consistent picking! I think I need to watch you play this a few more times!!

    Is that an OW Oliver?

      It is, an Oliver. I am a little sad that my recording equipment doesn’t do it justice. This song (and most finger picked songs) sound better on my $300 Oliver than they do on my $1600 Taylor, but the Taylor records better… I keep putting off my recording system though. I need to get round to doing something about that this summer.

      And thank you

    Great job! I have gotten so many ideas listening to the “play for us” forum. This is one that I will definitely learn to finger pick. Again great job.

    Copyright strike! Obviously something to aspire to @alfred. Thanks for showing me how it can be done if I stick at it.
