Thanks, Michael. I'm an older guy who has been playing a 6-string acoustic for 55 years (poorly) 😂. I understand some music theory, although it does my head in a bit. 🤯. I like the concept of a CBG and the 151 tuning. It'd be great if when doing these little demos, if you could briefly cover a little bit about the chords and notes and theory behind what you are playing. Kindest regards -Rod
Thanks Rod, I usually don't refer to notes, I will say certain frets or positions I'm using because there are some who use open G, open E, open D etc. tuning and it makes it easier and less confusing. M~ 🙂
Theory has its place and it won't hurt, but it's going to be challenging to translate it to a CBG, because with only 3 strings and the intervals between them, you're very limited the notes you can reach and the chords you can construct. You can find a chord chart (CBGitty has them). Those will shorten the search if you know the chord you need. There's only a few ways to make any chord on a CBG, so you could learn them all without too much trouble. Probably the fastest way to learn is to just do what you see being done. After a few songs, you'll start to recognize patterns and soon you'll be able to apply them.
Keep up the good work old son - these sessions are great.
Thanks William. M~

Thanks buddy great tune
Thanks John. M~ 😎
Thanks Michael, I figured it already out. Didn't you play a very similar riff as an ending in one of your other tunes? Thomas 🎸🤘
That's awesome. Thanks Thomas, I guess it could be similar to another tune. 😎
