Well I'm still in standard tuning but dropped a full step and was fooling around with this song. Still very much a work in process. However I remember someone else on this site who posted this song a while ago with strait strumming. I just wanted to show (hopefully) what this song needs apart from the standard chords. It's all about timing and small embellishments here and there to make it work with the thumping. I was working on various degrees of palm muting and level of attack. Kind of all over the place really. As stated above, its far from a finished product.

Neil,

Thank you for the review. It is always appreciated. I've known for some time that I tend to have an issue with time......from time to time....... :) :)

I think what I needed was exactly what you showed in this video as you counted the beats out while playing. Thanks. I'll have another go at this and see how it comes out.
