I love what you were playing in the end of video! Thanks for the tuning tips, also.
Beautiful sounds 🙏🏽🙏🏽
hey I can't find his course on guitarvideos.
Awesome demonstration. I bought acoustic years ago because I really like the African guitar sound, but I never practiced. Out of the blue today I picked up my guitar and searched how to tune to desert blues and landed here. I broke my 1st string trying to tune it to a C not realizing I was tuning 1st string and not the 2nd. But that not going to stop me.

It reminds me of chords ive heard in some 70’s songs. Nice lesson🌻
THANK YOU!!!!! for this tip. It changed everything for me!!! I find the melodies instantly now.
I’m scared of tuning my 6th string on my nylon guitar to G...it won’t break the string?
Capo and compensate
This looks like a whole lot of fun. Thank you for sharing.
Warning ⚠️: This tuning will take a toll on your strings. Just snapped my G string (heh) while tuning to the B flat. The strings were fairly new too. Great lesson though! I’m a huge fan of Ali Farka Toure, this was fun to play around with.
I was thinking about that a little when I saw this video. Maybe the way to do it is to first tune all strings down a whole tone, put a capo on 2nd fret, and then continue with the tuning procedure as shown in the video.
That's exactly what I ended up doing! I also realised i messed up initially. When he shows us the minor variant of the tuning I thought he tuned the G string to a B flat, but it was actually the A string. Oops!
Molto interessante, spesso suono in accordatura aperta, ma questa non la avevo mai provata, ha delle sonorità molto celtiche, ma credo che anche il blues viene molto bene
Hi did lesson ever come out ?
What shape body is this guitar it's not a dreadnought is it
Amazing sounds
Great lesson...thank you..
Will there be a full lesson available for purchase on the website?
that's what i'm wondering
Excellent.
Nice!
What make is this guitar?
I think it’s a froggy bottom
Lots of waffling and showing off but didn’t really show any real scales or tuning..keeps it all to himself..✨✨✨🤔😲😐✨✨✨
Poor baby
I have a problem with a caucasian human being teaching African music styles.... it’s not racial, it’s culturally.
Lol
Sorry buddy I don't understand the problem you have, can you explain so dummys like me can understand? Regards willie
Culturally stupid...so clapton cant play the blues, elvis cant rock, and so on.... Luckily not everyone is like you and we can have styles like bluegrass or bossa nova, cultural fusions expand! Oh and sorry for my englich im not the queen
Imagine someone stating "I have a problem with an Asian human being teaching European Classical music styles...it's not racial, it's culturally."
Then you have a problem indeed. Sorry for you
