Flatpicking practice - Old Grimes - Charlotte Carrivick's version capo II
Found Charlotte's version in this youtube video and figured it looked fun:
th-cam.com/video/-8tE-wCsCK8/w-d-xo.html
Lots of stuff to work on here (for me) especially the syncopated swing which takes a fairly easy tempo (~102bpm) and pushes notes together at more like 130bpm (much more challenging!). Also, there's a bunch of two-notes-per-string starting with an up stroke (the resolution phrases), which I found hard.
As always, there'll be plenty of improvements on this once I add it into my practice routine.

5 cheaper picks for flatpicking: Primetone, Taylor, Tortex, Jazz III, Dunlop heavy

I'm still working on Charlotte Carrivick's tune, so what better opportunity to mix up my metronomic practise than to switch between picks that I hate! Okay, I don't mind the Primetone - it's a decent pick in my hand. But that Jazz III is tiny! And the Taylor round edges aren't to my liking - I kept missing the strings. I dislike the shape of the tortex, and the JD heavy. Not much to like here!

I'm learning Old Grimes - from a Charlotte Carrivick youtube video where she plays it out of a C shape - and found myself mainly using a Wegen pick while working it up to speed. But I figured it might be a nice opportunity to audition a few picks to see if any stood out for this piece. Here's the test bunch: Blue Chip CT 55 (43 GBP) Apollo Casein 1.5mm (36 GBP) Wegen Trimus 2.5mm (22 GBP) Wegen...

ขอเพลงนี้ครับ
Well done Tom.
One hand is faster than the other
Wow, the H4N sounds best! At least for TH-cam.
I have a 1974 D-41 - quite the cannon!
The Apollo is nice, but i've had two and they both broke, cracked in half. I got a lot of use out of them, good picks, but for the price I was surprised when they snapped. I like the Tone Slab Darth Tone a lot. and of course Blue Chips are a sure thing.
@@epolynomous I haven't used my apollo enough to crack it! I don't have a tone slab - might check one out
That D41 is mighty pretty, both to look at and to listen to, but I managed to snag a 2009 D35 at a pretty decent price and it's all the pretty I need in a guitar.
Nothing better than a Jazzmaster III in my humble opinion. I wouldn't know anymore what to do with a regular sized pick.
@@dan_kay I think I've got a jazz iii somewhere- I'll see how it compares!
Hi nice demo, they are all great, my favorite is Bluechip I have STP60 I want even bigger version of the same for more expressive playing, more space to hold
I think the TAD60 is a bigger version of the STP60 - so might be worth checking out?
Lovely sound and I love the Larrivee!
Nice one Carl 👍
It's so good. What's the name of this music?
It's a guitar demo tune written by a guitarist called Carl Miner. He played when doing a demo of a Preston Thompson guitar for TNAG shop
r they good for manouche guitar?
Hi, The Zoom H4n is in a fixed XY placement. How did you record with the Rode and Neumann microphones?
Think they were both spaced pairs one aimed at lower bout, other at neck join. (Panned hard left/right)
Wonderful!!!
Thanks for listening! ❤
For what its worth, honey picks are made by hand in North Carolina, i ordered a few and they are extremely nice, i like supporting small business. They have quite a few different materials to choose from.
Zoom +1
They both have beautiful timbre colours and flavors of each note blends together smoothly.
New to acoustics. The 41 is piano like. Is that a thing?
@@Mrlocdown238 it is now!
D41 ,i need to start saving!
Good work. Did you record this on your phone or with a mic into a saw?
@@theyoungathletic 2 mics into a little zoom f3 recorder I think
@@tdlw do you add any eq?
@@theyoungathletic probably a touch of compression and I think the only eq is to cut 60hz and below. Might be a tiny tiny bit of reverb too
D-41 is sharper and the D-35 has that nice fuzzy middy mid-range that makes it a joy to sing along with and I think that makes the D-35 popular with singersongwriters. The D-41 is beautifully focused and sharper and if you are a strong singer, you can sing above the guitar while a less powerful singer could probably sound best with the D-35. If basing on just tone and nothing else, the D-41 is a notch sweeter,crisper,purer. I'd take either one.
Very nicely played. I find my left hand wrist getting tense all the time for this particular piece, to the point of not being able to hold the chord any more.
thx! yeah - holding that C shape (and nudging it into the F chord) is definitely a grip-tester! I have to alternate playing the pieces that hold a chord a lot with ones that have more runs and scales/single notes -- just to give my hand a rest
Well done, man! Sounds great!
Well done! 👍

i saw Carl's piece first and I thought I'd like to learn it but the camera moved away from his left hand. Then your version popped up! Thanks to you I can give it a go. Good job sir
I'm faced with a choice between Martin D28 standard or D28 street legend, and Martin D37 standard. Tell me which of these Martins will sound better? it’s worth overpaying for d35, it’s not much more expensive than D28
If you can, play them! I bought both my Martins used -- and only after I played them for a good while. I was happy to pay 'a lot' for the D-41 because it sounded *amazing* and played like butter. My D-35 was more of a bargain because it's a bit banged up, but I live with that because it sounds/plays amazing too
Thanks for this! Ultex is the truth
Very nice 👍
If you're playing at a cafe people would say both guitars sound beautiful. But, when you compare the two side by side you can clearly hear that the D41 is a higher quality instrument.
Beautifully Done!
Gorgeous sound awesome work!
If you did a blind comparison you couldn't tell any difference. ;)
Great effort Tom really enjoyed it ? You’re a really good player and that’s a great sounding D35 . One day I’ll get one myself I think . I love Carl’s pieces on NAG guys a freak of nature.
The strummed chords at the end sound so nice de-clicked but I kinda like the original audio? Have you done any other mixing & fx or is it just a nice guitar+mic combo?
light compressor (mainly cos those chords are louder than the picking!), slight eq (just high-pass at 60hz). Helps that the guitar and mics are great and sound good with no fx etc!
Very interesting Tom. In the past I've just recorded the pick click and then used noise reduction that seemed to work but probably not as effective as this.
Yeah - I've only used eq before, and this does a better job than that
Nice
Excellent well done beautiful sound & beautifully played next time smile you earned it.
came for the comparison, stayed for the beautiful playing!
This is good. Are you reading it for this?
yeah - it's a side project. I should have set up a different youtube channel for it, I didn't fully realise that adding a 'podcast' to my channel would be handled in this way!
Sounds great...I use Elixir PBs on all my guitars...I keep a record of changes and for the most part I go 1.5-2 years on these before hearing any need to change :)
Light years ahead of me though. Good work. And a nice recording as well.
I always thought that the D35 sounds a bit muddy, my D41 sings with outstanding clarity and balanced output.
If.anyone can tell me is the 'b-omvadt' is that the refrence for the carl miner version? On his channel?
It's a ref to the carl video on the TNAG channel - I think if you search for 'bourgeois om v' you'll find it!
I have the same Eastman E10 OO and can hardly believe how good it sounds for such an economical guitar. I bought mine because I also like to play classical, so the clunky neck and 12 fret design is more similar to classical guitars than those with 14 fret design with thin necks. Both suit my clunky wide hands. By the way, what is the Carl Miner tune you're playing? It's very relaxing and soothing.
Thanks! Yes - a good guitar if you're used to 2inch classical necks! This is the tune Carl played when demoing a Martin HD 28p on TNAG channel (if you search that, you should find it!)
@@tdlw Thanks for the pointer, I really like that style of playing. I have to admit that I hadn't heard of Carl Miner, so I started digging and saw an interview with him: th-cam.com/video/jXej1zgVLvY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Y_9W6UfxC7oCNG2q&t=25. He confirms that he basically makes these tunes up on the fly to demonstrate guitars for TNAG. Anyway, that is a style I aspire to learning to play.
Lord man, I can’t come close to making up my mind of which I like best lol. Great job!
That guitar sounds nice
I just started using D'Addario XS strings. I don't expect them to last 18 months, but I hope they a bit longer than the phosphor bronze strings I was using. How many hours of playing time do you have on the strings?
good question, and one that's hard to answer because I rotate through my guitars when I practise. I'm guessing between 100 and 200 hours playing (might be a bunch more). Enough that the wound strings are looking 'dark and hairy' where I pick 'em. I remember that after about 3 months I was gonna change them as they'd gone pretty dull, but I figured they were holding their tune so I'd leave 'em on. I've tried the D'Addario XS - but I didn't like the feel of them under my fingers.
I've had my XS strings on my Martin for waaaayyy longer than I thought... probably over a year now...AND they still sound fine.
If they ain't broke...
