The chords he adds in at 7:54...sooo cool!! Gonna have to steal that.

[@robaet3]

David Grier- the great Guitar Picker ! Thanks very much for these good picking ideas!

[@dbkitajima]

Wow. I always wondered how he did the drone notes without using his right hand fingers. This is a game changer! Thank you!!!

[@Mandoslicer]

Full’s Mo Bettah. That’s your bumper sticker for sure David.

[@Mandoslicer]

And….yep. I didn’t read down in the comments until right before this comment. But, seriously…bumper sticker.

My two most favorite guitarists are J.P. Cormier and David Grier. Not just for their musical ability but the combination of that with their personalities.

[@klippdachs]

Now I know what I have to practice for the next five years! And, by the way, David Grier seems to be a real gentleman. Thanks a lot for posting!

[@DreamGuitars]

Yes indeed he is. Thank you for watching and for your comment!

@@DreamGuitars is this a stock d-18 ?

[@mattz28si]

@@Possum_J I believe he's playing one of the Gruhn custom shop Sinker / Adirondack D18s.

[@karenbrooks8417]

Love that sound!!!

[@RemoSforza]

Nice! Thanks

[@6string_sketches]

3:18 fishing creek blues

And 4:50 full speed

[@markrobinson891]

I like your terms “empty” then “FULL”. Yup!

Eat beans in every meal - David Grier, over and out.

[@Pete-z6e]

Gives it more Juice!

[@skullduggery3377]

he reminds me of john dawson winter III sporting that beard and top hat.

[@owlcarnival]

The secrets to his playing are in the hat.

[@DreamGuitars]

I gotta get me one, then!

[@chumspracticetips]

He teased waitin on daddy’s money. dang wish he taught that one!

[@ae3898]

What’s the name of the tune?

[@jespero93]

May I ask, is that a Bluechip pick he is holding?

[@DreamGuitars]

I'm not sure, and I don't remember noticing at the time, but it sure looks like it could be.

[@liquidlove9999]

Notice where his capo is…. Right up just behind the fret. I tried this and it is much better sounding

[@monsterzero1965]

Wat a weer-doe!

[@shreddykrueger3776]

Why are his fingertips black?

[@jackshannonmusic7564]

From the strings, mine are like that when I play for awhile

[@SKarlaArt]

I think from sweeping the chimney

[@G_Demolished]

Burn marks!

[@Possum_J]

is that a stock d18 ?

[@riceflatpicking4954]

Sinker

[@billdedrick1914]

It is obvious from the pick sound and appearance that he is using a real Tortoise pick.

[@njgl2010]

His fingertips are numb 😂
