    KeniLee,
    Thanks for making these lessons available. I'm more a builder than a player, although I'm playing more and more... mostly fretless slide. I'm looking forward to learning from you.
    Thanks again,
    Wichita Sam

    @lucasmorter Thank you for sharing the lyrics. I remember going to YMCA camp as a young boy and this was one of the regular camp fire sing-alongs. A great song to explore the CBG's fingerboard too. Enjoy.

    Thank you Wichita Sam. Well keep on building and although fretless is good, gets some frets too. I got a whole lot of interesting lessons in the works. Please feel free to write if you want to shoot the breeze about anything. Enjoy.

    @TheEHermit Thank you for your purchase and comment. Yes, in true folk fashion, creating new lyrics. Although, maybe just a wee bit too specific. LOL Enjoy.

    Unlike guitars that are fretted to play the Chromatic scale, Dulcimers are fretted to play a Diatonic scale (major scale). Basic music theory applies to all instruments, but dulcimer chords are fingered differently than a standard or open tuned guitar due to the frets. Strum sticks are basically dulcimers that can be held like a guitar.

    Thank you. Please consider purchasing my Series 1 CD. It will offer a progressive approach that will help you build a firm foundation. First practice the major scale with the Bottleneck. Then try open bass note with treble note same time. Like a pinch with two fingers. Then try alternating a treble note in between the open bass note. Enjoy.

    Thank you for your comment and question. Make sure you visit Cigar Box Nation. There are many builders there to help answer your questions. I play acoustically. Many players install piezoelectric pickups. These picksup do not work magnetically, but pick up vibrations. The can be used regardless of the type of strings used on the instrument.. They work on even those using nylon strings. Enjoy.

    From a medium pack of guitar strings. Use the A,D,g,e strings. Tune your CBG G,D,g,d It will be just like my 3 string CBG but with an extra high string. Enjoy.

    Thank you for your question. My Series 1 CD offers instruction for the student with little or no experience. It explains basic music theory including scales and chord building. Although the CD is geared toward 6 string, if it is used with these upcoming lessons, I believe it will present an understandable approach. As I will explain, it is not difficult to learn CBG, it just requires self motivated exploration. The CBG is just a mini 6 string. Please stay tuned for the upcoming lessons.

    @lucasmorter To be sung in round fashion with:
    Show me the way to my habitual abode,
    I'm fatigued and I wish to retire.
    Oh, I had a mini beverage sixty minutes ago,
    And it went straight to my cerebellum.
    Where ever I may perambulate,
    By land or sea or effervescent bubbles,
    You can always hear me singin' this song,
    Show me the way to my habitual abode.
    BTW I just bought the CD!

    Direct me to my residence -- I'm fatigued and I want to retire -- I had a little drink of intoxicating liquor -- and it went right to my cerebrum. -- Wherever I may travel -- on land or sea or gravel -- you can always hear me harmonizing this ditty -- Direct me to my residence.

    Love the vids Keni. I'm still working on that fingerpicking. Any suggestions on how to combine bass lines with the melody? I just can't get the timing.
    Thanks- Wade

  • @KeniLeeBurgess
    @KeniLeeBurgess  15 лет назад

    Well, what we now know as a guitar and it's standard tuning EADgbe is relatively new, compared to the long history of string instruments. Standard guitar tuning is a compromise to be able to play in all the various keys. Open tuning reduces the instrument to a simple single key. Usually a chord. Three tones. The 1,3,5 from the major scale. So, if you study the interval relationships between these 3 tones you can play an instrument with any number of strings. Thank you for your question. Enjoy.
