MarkM learning Don't Let It Bring You Down guitar lesson

[MarkM]

I was thrilled to see Neil put up this lesson last week. My guitar is tuned down a full step from double drop D to Double drop C which is what Neil Young had done on his Live at Massey Hall album. I just love this tunning. Anyway it is still a work in progress as I've just been messing around with this the past few days. As always I appreciate your comments and suggestions. Thanks for watching.

Great job Mark, I couldn't wait to work on this one as well, I think you've nailed it! Of course as soon as I started working on this one Neil puts up Only Love Can Break Your Heart-now another tough choice.
Thanks for putting this up I always enjoy your videos!

That sounded like fun Mark! Nice job! I like the monochrome.
If I understood you right you had the guitar tuned like in double dropped D but down a full step so double drop C. Correct?

Hey Mark, you did it. That for me would be a gutsy move, trying to strum and sing at the same time. Your coming right along.

I Really like the sound of that tuning your in. It adds another great dimension to the standard we are used too.

Pete - As always thank you. You'll have fun with this one.

Anton - Thanks!!!! I've got to go watch you video as well. I've been away for a bit.

Chris - You are correct. Double Drop C or take Double Drop D and tune it down a full step. Thanks!!

Scott - Thanks. Yeah I like that tuning as well.

Mark, I think that sounded great. I can't think of anything clever to say. (other than that) I like your voice, the tuning and the whole ball o' wax on this. You got a good voice for this down home, folksy stuff and you pick this style of tune up quite quickly.

Mark,

You've got that down really nice. Playing and singing sounded real good and I really enjoyed it. Those alternate tunings are cool.

Thanks for the look

Hi Mark,

Not a lot of work to do if you ask me. It all sounded great and you look very comfortable with it. I agree, I like the alt tuning.

Thanks for sharing.

Hi Mark, great playing again, nice strumming keeping the beat with your hand. You are gaining confidence in singing, you sound like you are not holding back at all. I hope to get there soon.
