Very well done. I also watched your Aerosmith and like your style. I'd be very interested in finding out what other songs you're interested in playing. Or maybe a better question is what artists or genre of music do you prefer to play? It would be good to see some of your electric work, too.
Your OM-1 looks and sounds nice. I haven't had the opportunity to play one, yet. Don't know what to tell you about the strings. You might try a different brand if the gauge change doesn't help. I have a couple of Martins that are close to the same dimensions as the OM-1 and use either Martin 80/20 Bronze Light (.012 - .054) or Martin Marquis 80/20 Bronze Light (.012 - .054). These come in Extra Light (.010 - .047), too, but that may be too light for what you want. On the dreadnoughts, I use the same strings only in Mediums (.013 - .056). These are about the cheapest strings on the planet (under $4.00 a set on sale) and not bad quality. I can afford to keep all the guitars in fresh strings until the year infinity.
Happy to have you here!

Cori, If you are reading this, I'm not sure I understand what is meant here . . . . could you point me to where you saw the instruction? Does Neil have a video where he shows this?You might try turning your fret hand just a little bit more so that you can lay the
palm of your hand flat on the strings.
