@@craigcarroll9888 thanks Craig. It’s a custom shop Taylor Grand Auditorium. Redwood top, walnut back and sides, short scale, 12 frets to body. I ended up selling it and miss it every now and again.
Yep, the "Man of Constant Sorrow" lead me here. Thoroughly enjoyed both videos. I've heard many bluegrass bands play Shady Grove (at 150 mph) that were very good, but when done in double drop d like this it is a beautifully haunting song. Thanks for sharing this technique. If you have more drop d or double drop d I'd love to here them.
I'm one of those who saw your "Man of Constant Sorrows" vid and was hooked on the "Shady Grove" intro. Just ran across this a moment ago so I'm going to try it on my Gretsch dobro. Thanks, Mike.
Don't often leave comments, but this was such a great video. I've watched a ton of tutorials for this song, but none are so easy to understand while also staying true to the spirit of the song. I always considered this song waaay out of my skill zone--no more!
Discovered drop D after 20 years of learning how to play in standard , absolutely love it , learned man of constant sorrow and now I’m off to shady grove in double drop D , don’t know how anyone could ever go through life with out a 6 string acoustic
Mike, first of all, Thank you for your service. And as a retired guy who took up guitar back in '17, your lessons are great for my playing level. Thanks for the alternate tunings too. GT
Thanks GT. My service is to the veterans. I am not a veteran, but a son of a WWII vet that didn’t have to serve by virtue of when I was born. I have always admired veterans, and have dedicated my retirement years to helping out. I am happy you are finding value in these lessons. Makes my day!
Hey Mike! Appreciate you starting with the song, I hadnt' heard this before and it made the lesson easier. I'm looking forward to getting this down. It will be nice too, just starting the video and being able to play along with you.
Thanks Mike...a "great late night sit back around the campfire" song to play. Love the drop D tuning...dbl drop D is even better! Your instructions are easy and simple. I'm really glad you followed up on Man of Constant Sorrow. Any more dbl drop D tuning songs let me know. Love Neal Young!
Thanks Bill! I’ll definitely be doing a double dropped D tune in the next month or so. Thinking Neil Young’s Mr. Soul might be a good one. Thanks for the views and the comment!
One of my favorite versions of "Shady Grove" -- on TH-cam -- is Carson McKee's. His feel for time is Tony Rice level - or awfully close. He plays this tune in a modal key, using a partial capo -- very nice sound. His singing is top-level, too. Check him out!
Thank you for this rendition. I have a 2020 Taylor 712ce (with Santa Cruz low tension strings) and this rendition really sings out. Next I will try this out on my 2015 Taylor 856ce 12 string.
Nice rendition. I have a 2020 Taylor 712ce (with Santa Cruz low tension strings) and this rendition real rings out. This guitar responds well to light picking also. Next I will try this on my 2015 Taylor 856ce 12 string guitar.
Thanks Norman! Sounds like you are a Taylor fan. Me too. I have tried both the low and the medium-tension Santa Cruz strings. I really like them, and they tame down an overly bright guitar. I put them on a carbon fiber acoustic and they worked really well.
Personally,I learned of this tune from Mudcrutch, of Tom Petty fame. Whatever cover I hear,its an awesome tune I want to learn on acoustic 6 string flat top box contraption.
I learned about Mudcrutch just about a year ago, and made this video of Trailer for my small group of veterans. Never knew they did Shady Grove as well. th-cam.com/video/liAewRKd2ak/w-d-xo.html
IV been on guitar hunts lately..i have seven now...bought some cheap ones..set them up to play great..hobby.i have a few in the 600$ to 2000$ range also...thay walnut Taylor is sick..i can hear how it sounds...its imadging.so nice of a timber.best that I like that I've heard in a while.really sounds nice...happy for you that you found such a gem
Thanks Patrick! I went into a store to buy strings and ended up picking this thing up and playing it. The tone spoke to me. Very easy to play, too. The only down side, besides the cost, is that I cannot really dig into it. Being a short scale, 12-fret to body model, it buzzes and overdrives if you play it hard. I recently acquired a Gibson SJ 200, which can withstand digging in. I have been waiting for a custom build from a private luthier for about 6 months. It should be here some time in early May. Keep your eyes open for that one... I'm hoping it has even more mojo than the Taylor.
Very nice and thank you Mike. I've diddled with drop D but never double, since have gotten another acoustic keep in standard and the other older but goldie in double-drop D. I really like the modal, dissonant Appalachian sound... I guess an old dog can learn new tricks, ha. thank you
I was a man of constant sorrow, until I found this shady grove. Is there a double drop D song called Cool Breeze? Then it'll be intermittent sorrow at best. Rambling aside, never heard this song until today. Nearing perfection in simplicity.
You got a good chuckle out of me, iain! Haven’t heard of Cool Breeze, but I am confident Shady Grove will move you from constant to intermittent sorrow.
Great rendition, Mike! Thank you for the tools! Is there any chance you could play the whole tune for us start to finish with the full lyrics? I know I'm not the only one who would like that. 🍻🇨🇦
Not aware of one, Louis. There is a DADGAD style capo from Shubb that can clamp on three internal strings. So it can either go on strings 5-4-3 for EBEABD ( DADGAD raised up a step) or on strings 4-3-2 for EAEAC#E (which is like an open G intervals raised a full step). Fun capo to have, but I don’t use it all that often.
🚩Great playing Song! Sure wish I could tell you how to Put the Tabs and Chord diagrams, Strumming pattern, on 1 page. Don't have computer. Unfortunately, When I get to watch, my Guitar, Not near me, then I forget. I do save( have tons to go back to.. Thanks A Lot⭐
What brand of strings are you using.They sound awesome however it could be the drop d tuning your using .Would you. Consider this music appalacian folk, bluegrass or country folk. Keep it up it sounds sweet.Love your axe as well .I love that haunting tune Shady Grove.
Thanks Chris! That is a fresh set of Elixir phosphor bronze mediums. The guitar has a short (24.75”) scale, and needs mediums to sound robust in dropped tunings.
I thought so that's whzt I use .I guess my ear is getting better for noticing thingsx like that I love what you do and wish you great success.The short scale makes your guitar sould sweeter that's for sure
Lovely song, totally new for me and one I will put the effort into learning. Your guitar is a beautiful looking thing, I take it that it is a Taylor? I have an all Koa wood Taylor 424ce that broke my piggy bank when I first bought it, but love it to bits and worth every penny
Mike! What a fantastic approach to this great old song! Like others here, I was drawn to it by first seeing your lesson on Man of Constant Sorrow, and I'm sure glad that I did! I'm busy learning Man of Constant Sorrow on bluegrass banjo (in the key of F), and this guitar lesson of yours is helping me to make some sense of the banjo tablature. Anyway, you've got a very nice, slow, outstanding temperment for teaching others music lessons, and I hope you'll continue to do so. It's very much appreciated. ;-) By the way, have I missed something? Have you actually published the tabs for Shady Grove anywhere, like you did with Man of Constant Sorrow?
Thanks for the kind words, Joseph! I just pinned the lyrics and chords in the comments. You may also like “The Cuckoo”, which I uploaded last week. Very similar to Shady Grove, perhaps a little more challenging as I have added some flat picking. Enjoy!

I got a dump question. If I’m playing with my fiddle jam partner and dulcimer buddy. Will they be able to play in there normal tunings. And figure it out
@@tumalo710 good question, tumalo! Yes they can. In this song, the key is D, one with which they should be familiar, and be able to accompany you with ease.
Thanks James! Taylor GA Custom. Attaching a link to more details... danvillemusic.com/products/taylor-custom-ga-12-fret-sinker-redwood-queen-s-walnut-shaded-edge-burst-0027
No problem, Bruce. Pluck the bass note, then do a down up down up down up strum on the treble strings. Kind of a “boom chucka chucka chucka” pattern. Boom on the bass, chuckas on strings 1 through 3. Hope that helps!
@@campfire_guitar_lessons Yes, he definitely should do that. I looked up versions around youtube, but they played it fast with banjos. I really like your version. When you played that base or low note @ 0:14 or 15 with your index finger, I immediately thought of MK. Perfect campfire song! Me likey very much! Keep on playing!
Cool brother...you song has a very Led Zep III vibe to it. I have a song that I wrote in this tuning on my page...its called Ghost of Youth - check it out if you get a chance and let me know what you think. It's simpler than your tune but it still sounds cool.
@@campfire_guitar_lessons Awesome...thanks a lot...I was just watching another video of your as you commented back...are the songs that you do originals?

Cool brother...you song has a very Led Zep III vibe to it. I have a song that I wrote in this tuning on my page...its called Ghost of Youth - check it out if you get a chance and let me know what you think. It's simpler than your tune but it still sounds cool.
Thanks Kevin. I watched it and commented awhile back. Nice job!
@@campfire_guitar_lessons Awesome...thanks a lot...I was just watching another video of your as you commented back...are the songs that you do originals?
@@collidingworldsmusic3957 No. I try to do songs that were/are popular with older guitarists like myself.
Wish I had a guitar string ... would be a better lyric LOL
