thank you.

Thank you for that wonderful comment. It is a true blessing to be able to share the gift of music with you mom, whether it be great old country, or your Metallica be grateful , and blessed. Again, thank you.

@@DanielLDavis-df3uy I learned looooong ago, to *NOT* play Metallica for her. In fact, to *NEVER* turn on any kind of distortion. ⬛😤👎 But I _did_ get her to learn "Bad Moon Rising" by CCR, and "Squeezebox", by The Who, so...payback for making me learn Jimmie Rodgers songs? However, I'm still mad at Gene Autry, for sneaking a diminished chord into the intro to "The Dying Cowgirl". Chet Atkins wasn't even ten years old when Autry did that. Who did that guy think he was, foolin' around with jazz chords? Some of those old "cowboy" singer/songwriters were too crafty for _my_ own good.

@@3rdOption-l9t A lot of those old timers used some pretty fancy chords way back then. Check out some of the very early Sons Of The Pioneers and listen to the chord structure, pretty amazing. I recorded "The Dying Cowgirl" on this channel about 9 years ago. I learned the basics of the song from my dad. However I don't know where a diminished chord would fit. I'll have to listen to Gene Autry's version I guess. Thanks for your response and happy pickin.

@@DanielLDavis-df3uy 🤠 "Check out some of the very early Sons Of The Pioneers and listen to the chord structure" - Will do. Thanks. 🏇 "Gene Autry's version" - This one. It's in the intro, not the actual progression. Caught me off guard. ?v=_XqWoBOWqJ0 There's a story behind all of this, but when I had to start learning songs for her, I was expecting the C&W songs that I knew from watching the Grand Ole Opry on Saturday nights, or Hee Haw. I was good back to Hank Sr., Patsy Cline, Jim Reeves, Little Jimmy Dickens, etc. I told her to jot down some songs she knew, that she might want to do. She handed me a page and a half of tunes I had _never_ heard. Off to YooToob...and I'm finding songs from the 30s and back that I was clueless about. I was expecting simplistic stuff. Then I did "Waiting for a Train", and I'm looking at a chain of secondary dominant chords, saying, "Who the hell was this guy, and why is he screwing with me from the grave?" Jimmie Rodgers. Moral of the story? Never underestimate the ingenuity of talented musicians. From any genre. (I should have known better. 😖)

Thank you. I bought mine in 1976 out in State College, PA. It has had the nut replaced and a bridge fix as the bridge was pulling on the body. I played it in a country band and had a double humbucker from musicians friend back in the mid 80s. It's been through alot but I love it and wouldn't dream of getting rid of it. I appreciate your comment and your story. Thanks again

Thanks for answering , on my Ibanez ( it was a Concord model ,it was a Hummingbird ) , the bridge started lifting from the body after a while , so now on my Dove after playing I loosen off the strings so there is no tension on the bridge . I paid $1,000 Australian Dollars for it , I believe they go for about $ 500 in USA , do with the exchange rate . I live in Sydney , my hero was Johnny Cash , he was the reason I persevered with the guitar . I have 2 Electric Guitars with Humbuckers , and a Squier Telecaster with the 2 Single Coil pickups , and my Epiphone Dove which has a Piezo pickup in the body of the guitar . So I can play Country , Rock n Roll , and Blues .

Tank you.

@@DanielLDavis-df3uy Me too!

I thought I had heard it a long time ago in3/4 time. But most of the versions I listened to on You Tube seemed to favor 4/4. I really had to work at it to keep from sliding into the waltz time. Thank you for listening and your wonderful comment. Be blessed.
