The Rain Song on Martin D12X1AE before and after changing 4 year old strings

In this video, I’m using a 12-string Martin D12X1AE with 4-year-old strings to play Led Zeppelin’s “The Rain Song”, which I learned yesterday for this video, then I put on new strings and tried it again. You be the judge.

Thank you for watching!

Dan Toler’s Acoustic Solo from Dickey Betts Hotel Jam: The Preacher – with tab

Dickey Betts Hotel Jam Guitar Solo – The Preacher (Horace Silver) – with tablature. Dickey and Dan Toler are shown in an after-concert hotel jam playing a bebop song written by Horace Silver called “The Preacher”. They play it in a western swing style that really captures the essence of the original song while including Dickey’s trademark style.

Dickey Betts’ “The Preacher” guitar solo lesson and Dickey Betts solo guitar lesson and tab can be found here.

Making the Sausage – Learning Stevie Ray Vaughan’s “Lenny”

For a future lesson, I’m working on Stevie Ray Vaughan’s “Lenny”, and tried to play it with no metronome to see where I was at…which parts were working and which weren’t.

This is where I am as of a couple of nights ago…the sausage being made…a long way to go before I’ll be ready. I used my Vox DA5 practice amp on this, and it sounds surprisingly good for such an inexpensive digital amp.
