What's the tuning on the 3-string shovel??

GDG

Just got my new Fender Mustang GT Amp !

I know, not for the valve amp purists but for the rest of us, what an awesome little machine, grouse way to learn, gotta love your sound right.

It has preset amp sounds from a myriad of classic amps, you can tamper with any of these presets, there are users throughout the world that set them up and you can just download anything, Tom Petty, Kiss, Credence, Blues, Heavy Metal.....on it goes.

Bluetooth songs you're learning and play along, headphones if you want so you don't piss off the whole house.

Now is a serious;y good time to learn to play !

As well as finding a good teacher, there are some really good lessons on You Tube.

My best is JJ, formerly Privatetricker, what a guy, good songs and great explanations.

Have you guys/gals found any real good stuff ?

BTW, love the shovel/cigar box stuff, not there yet but geez, hope that guy with the long hair leaves a few ! Good on him.

I like this dude reminds me of running a muck as a teenager. 4;15 Domination solo is a pinkie breaker

Didn't make it by 30,40,50 or 60. Doubt if I'll be there at 70. Not enough practice or natural ability. I'll just keep on noodling.


But one helpful hint? It's 95% the player and 5 % the quality of the guitar. So flood the house with cheap guitars. The effort of getting a prized 3kg possession out of its hermetically sealed case discourages grabbing 5 minutes of valuable practice. You don't have to worry if they get blasted by the sun, cop a little rain or get chewed by the dog.

Light weight , compact, easy to pick up, same neck width as a stratocaster, get some higher quality strings, tweak the action, it'll sound OK. Indestructible.

Just have a party and put on free pizza haha

Pineapple Pineapple Pineapple! You learn something every day.

Hey Ian

Pineapple?

That's the triplets huh?

Love the Merle Workin' Mans Blues, gonna get to this point one day hopefully !

Buster's video link. Hard to pick at that speed but I thought I heard a triplet or two. And then the Dude said "Pineapple". Easier than one,two three.

bit of bogan to muck about with

not putting that dude down but why do so many guitar artists look like a chook laying a hard boiled egg, or a tortoise thats just crapped in its shell, the ay their heads move ...man thats an exercise in itself.

Been trying for a few months to learn guitar by the time I'm 60, left ring finger wrecked kiting, might change to banjo.
