    Love the videos! Partly thanks to these videos I've gotten comfortable enough to upgrade from a guitar thats a cheaper beginner instrument to something I can play on stage, I'm wondering if theres certain things I should look for in a guitar thats going to predominantly be for backing tunes in DADGAD i.e. body style/size, nut size, bright vs dark and even things you look for in a set up with strings, action ect... Any chance you could talk about considerations in choosing an instrument specifically for playing Irish trad? I realize its all very personal but would love to know why you've chosen the setup you have :)

    My guy thank you for this content - been leaning on a more trad focussed sound recently and these lessons are ideal!

    I wanted to learn how to play the guitar so I could play the Wild Colonel boy, to play for my Dad, that was several years ago . Since then my Dad has passed on,but I would still like to learn it, could you do a lesson how to play it?

      That's a great song Mick! And thanks for sharing why you want to learn it. I'll try my best to get it done, but I've a lot on my plate at the moment. But I now have it on my to-do list. For the time being, the song consists of 3 chords so if you learn how to play those three chords it's a good start (in the key of G those chords are G, C, & D). Once you know those chord shapes you just have to learn the chord pattern for the song. The songs chord pattern goes like this: The first line of the verse goes: G/C/D/G. Then the second line goes: G/D/C/G. Then that pattern of chords is repeated for the third line, so: G/D/C/G. And finally to finish, the forth line of the verse repeats the first pattern again: G/C/D/G. That's the whole song. Just repeat that pattern for each of the verses in the song. I hope that helps for the moment. I'll let you know when I get around to recording the lesson. Cheers.

    Hi I'm wondering what the best way to hold the guitar is? I see you holding it between your legs and the top of it tilted up rather than the normal horizontal grip. Does it help with the rythm better? I am struggling with keeping the jig rhythm for sustained amounts of time

    Have you done a video on triplets in jig time

      Not yet Gerrard. It's definitely on the way though. I get asked a lot for it 👍🎸

    Thanks as always for these great lessons! I'm trying to nail down my jig strum, and I notice that you often accent (and change chords) on the 6th beat of the jig when you're playing at speed. I love that effect, but I find it tricky to get into my muscle memory. Could you incorporate that technique into another strumming lesson sometime?

      Hello again Tim. I'm now back from the U.S. as a married man and catching up on comments and emails. I'll try get that next jig strum video recorded and uploaded shortly 👍 I just had a listen to you playing Psalm 23 in Hebrew, very nice stuff. Your guitar has a sweet tone and nice mandolin too!
