    I’ve started these videos so you can get the most out of your Cigar Box Guitar and Shovel.
    In this lesson we explore the classic Doors song.
    The song is originally in E but here we’re playing it in G.

    Hey Mark. Thanks for your very well done instruction videos.
    I am just learning the CBG at 67 years old and must say it addictive. I picked up a VOX mini go 10 and have so much fun with it.
    Anyone reading this drop Mark a few bucks to keep this help coming!

    I have always loved that song . Jim Morrison was a wild man . Only one, he was a very interesting human . Still is. I love that hard driving Rock n Roll /Boogie with Stu is one of my favourite also .Zeppelin version to me is the best .I love Zeppelin. Awesome video .Can you imagine going to a party with Doors and Zeppelin .Late sixties early 70s had great music .

    • @unclemarkscigarboxguitarlesson
      @unclemarkscigarboxguitarlesson  4 роки тому +1

      1st thing.... yes, it can get out of control, but when buying anything (pedals & such) always think ROI (return on investment) trust me, you will buy things that on first glance are awesome....but then you find you dont use it much or dont even like it 2 weeks later.... so before you buy ... see what you would get for it used if you decided to sell the next day. Let that determine if you really need it. I speak from 46 yrs of buying and selling...

      @@unclemarkscigarboxguitarlesson Since you brought up purchasing equipment. I bought a very inexpensive 3 string CBG just to check one out. I found that I enjoy it and would like to get into in a bit more. I really only want to buy one and be able to use it for most songs. So, I am leaning toward a 4 string fretted one. Would that still work for using a slide and learning some of the stuff you show on a 3 string model? Am I making any sense? Your advice would be appreciated.

    • @unclemarkscigarboxguitarlesson
      @unclemarkscigarboxguitarlesson  Рік тому +1

      Thanks for the kind words. The “action” string height above frets should be very low and consistent from nut to last fret, with no buzz. This is actually quite hard to do. I don’t build, I’m inept at woodwork. Best of luck and I hope you enjoy the lessons on UA-cam.

    Uncle Mark, really enjoyed this lesson. I'm sitting at the airport in Buffalo NY heading home to the PNW. Was wondering do you have a more complete tutorial on this tune with the cigarbox guitar & harmonica through the whole song with words or perhaps tab? I'm doing this tune for my monthly harmonica group. Adding a cigarbox guitar is a huge bonus thanks to you!

    • @unclemarkscigarboxguitarlesson
      @unclemarkscigarboxguitarlesson  2 роки тому

      The album version is in key of E, this (for convenience) is in open G. The whole harp thing revolves around which key you use. I think it's informative enough for what it is.... I may revisit it in E at a later time. Cheers.
