    When Bruce tells his draft story as the intro to The River at the LA Coliseum in 1980, do you think he’s arpeggiating these same chords?

    • @BruceGuitar
      @BruceGuitar  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hiya. Could well be but I haven’t done that version yet. May well be something different. Perhaps I’ll put that on a future subscribestar poll!

    Hi James, I took your lesson on my old guitar and now I noticed that 2 days ago I accidentally bought the same guitar that you use in the video:D Where does this model rank in your collection? I also ordered a Fender Player Tele in BTB which arrives in 3-4 weeks. The only thing I have left to do now is to get closer to your level of playing;)

    • @BruceGuitar

      Hi Marvin. Do you mean acoustic guitar? I’ve only ever had one acoustic which is the takamine you see in all the acoustic Bruce lessons. The fender player series are so so good! Nice one on that purchase. I’ve upgraded the pickups to Joe Barden Gatton T style picks ups. But to be fair the original fender player pickups are fantastic. So you’ve done well
