Crusty Finger Tips

I am wondering how some of you beginner players are dealing with the beautiful, crusty callouses that end up piling at the tips of your fret fingers? This has always bothered me, and I have even torn…Continue

Two piece plastic saddle

My Ibanez AEF30E acoustic guitar came with a two piece plastic saddle. I was wondering why it would be in two pieces, and what the benefit or detriment would be with a two piece versus a one piece?…Continue

Thanks, Kevin! It's crazy what the internet can do. I wish it was around when I was a kid learning how to play guitar.

Kevin, thanks for the compliment on my guitar. It sounds as good as it looks. Your Cordoba is really sweet. I've played them before, and I'm amazed at their tone. Keep on Pickin'.

Thanks for your kind comments. As far as the animation, it was done by a young animator and I don't have any details on how he worked as all communication was done online.

Hi, Kevin - thanks for the kudos on my "LICK*TIONARY" DVD. I worked long and hard to make everything short, simple, and easy to play. The longer I played professionally, the more I began to appreciate the little signature shortcuts that my favorite singer-songwriters and session musicians use. There's some more of these at my website www.dennysarokin.com, and over 200 in the DVD - when you ad some moving and pedaling bass lines to the equation, it really breaks the code for most of JT's songs.
Good luck,, Denny Sarokin

Hi Kevin
Thanks for listening. I take on board your comment. Singing and playing is something still new to me. I'm still still struggling with both. This video was really me exploring how I would sing the song if my brain weren't tied up with the playing, and comparing this with the live performance. Interestingly there are parts of the live playing performance I prefer also. If I can just get to the point where the guitar playing becomes automatic I think my performance would be much better....and I might stop making so many funny faces!
All the best
Colin
