Everytime this dude does his "peeeew pew, peeee-pe-peeew" and then "WHAT'S GOIN' OOON GUYS" I just can't stay in bad mood. Good vibes in flesh and bone.
I hate you... Why didn't you make this video when I started 6 years ago? :) This is exactly the kind of lesson I was looking for.. .Simple, to the point and so freaking easy to start jamming and having fun, and actually playing the blues. Everything back then was just a little too, I don't know, "heady" for me I had trouble getting my head around them and grew frustrated to make stuff sound good. This would have started me out much less frustrating and more fun path. I am going to recommend this video whenever someone is looking to get started. Although it's 6 years too late for me, THANKS for making this great tutorial.
Mike I use to live in Marietta GA and booked music in Atlanta with Stephanie Pettiss the jazz flutist and Tom.Gross & The Varsity. My good friend is Dave Cole who has BandX in Atlanta. I now own a cigar box guitar.
Mike'ster, Enjoy all your videos and I'm learning with all thanks to you. 2 Questions: Why called 1 4 5 Blues when it is 5 7 3 frets? and would you make Crossroads How To Thursday video? Many thanks from Pennsyltucky!!
Hi Mike, I really look forward to your videos. I'm new to the 3 string cigar box in fact I'm a total beginner and find your method of teaching easy to follow. I would really like to play Sultans of Swing by Dire Straits, although I've seen a couple of versions by other guitarist,however I was wondering what your take on it was. If you can do this that would be great. Appreciate you man Stay safe Regards Elvis Southwest United Kingdom
Great lesson. I’ve bought several of your cigar box guitars. They are literally works of art and they sound great, too. I’m a fairly accomplished 6 string guitar player, but I don’t sound as good on a 3 string cigar box guitar. I’m really having difficulty getting a good tone with a slide. I’ve tried a number of different slides and just can’t get it right. Can you help or give me some guidance? I feel like if I can get the slide right I can really take off on the cigar box guitar.
Thank you for sharing. And that’s what I learned as the 12 bar blues.
1,1,1,1
4,4,1,1
5,4,1,1
I love your enthusiasm!
That put a big smile on my face. Thanks for the lesson Mike. 😄🎸
I was thinking the same thing. Great fun CBG's are great! Thx. Mike.
