    Few tips for this song. Colter tunes his guitar a full step and capos on the second, a.k.a standard tuning but gives the string more slack and a bit more of a darker sound not so tinny. Next hammer 1 to 3 on the A string and 1 to 3 on the E string when playing the Verse. Great tutorial if youre basing off the record but his other performances have a few more hammer ons. The chorus appears to be missing from this tutorial as well, might be worth a look around to find those (I'm not going to advertise for other channels here but just advising.)

      Thanks for that I'd heard that but wasn't sure. Ya I thought it might be to make the strings looser and give more of a chunk but still keep it like no capo. I never tried it tho

      Hey, this is really heart advice. I’m just starting out so I just learned what a hammer is. Which parts do you do this on? I know you said 1 to 3 but I’m not sure what notes those are

    Just bought my first acoustic because I was inspired by recently discovering Mr. Wall… wanted a Martin but found I enjoyed the sound and quality more on the Taylor I ended up with. It’s a spruce top, koa back and sides with no lacquer. I also wanted a 000 without a cutaway but ended up buying a cutaway 😂 just sounded best to my ears. Now I should stop typing and start learning. Thanks for your help
