Neuroplasticity through Music - Scarborough Fair - Transcribed for Warr Guitar

Building a Neuroplasticity practice through music.
Scarborough Fair for Warr Guitar.
Developing adaptive structural and functional brain processes through the translation of artefacts to music.
Simply explained, the process of extracting artefacts from a piece of music (it’s story, melody, lyrical rhythm, baseline etc) then mapping that in new ways to an instrument where no mapping exists, can build cognitive adaptability, which can lead to new brain functions.
In essence I am using a systems thinking approach to improve neuroplasticity

Background
Scarborough Fair" is a traditional English folk song from the Middle Ages, referring to an old fair in Scarborough, Yorkshire, A medieval love story about a young man who delegates certain impossible tasks to his lover with the condition that she would have to finish those to be able to come back to him. Consequently, the lady also requests equally impossible things from the man, with the condition that she would complete her tasks when he would complete his.
Creative process: The parts and the Sum
(a) Gather Artefacts through discovery.

You are an incredible musician. And then posting the arrangement in the comments after someone requests it? Not just an incredible musician, but an incredible human.

[@FinbarOhanlon]

Aww shucks. Thank you mate. I had so many people help me become the musician and man I am today, the least I can do is pay it forward.
Appreciate your kind words.

Is it neuroplasticity or neuro-evolution?
Your arrangements on this instrument are mind blowing!

Thank you so much buddy. Appreciate all your comments and support.

what’s the difference between this and chapman stick?

Check out Jason Blakes response here.
The other Key Difference that Jason does not mention is Warr Guitars can come in variants up to 14 string with any combination of Melody and Bass strings e.g.6 Bass + 8 Melody.
