[@gtbwi]

Nigel.... you have no idea what kind of monster you have created ! but wait there's more.... I am just a 48 year old truck driver in the states. always wanted to be able to play a musical instrument.... Too complicated too much time never did catch on... but now I have discovered 3 string cigar box one-string Diddley bow and you! and I am totally jazzed about learning hey created music for myself it's so so so self gratifying... Thank you for being here you inspire me

This is one of the greatest little guitars ive ever had it was a Xmass gift had a lot of joy putting it together

Hi Nigel, I consider you & your channel one of the top goto channels for CBG song tutorials. It's not that one is better than another, it's a different style or technique that for a student is critical in learning different aspects of CBG playing. Thankyou for the time and effort to produce said videos. Take care, C.

Know why Keith Richards went open G? Backstage way back, Mick is listening to an opening act guitarist warm up and amazed at the sound. The guitarist is Ry Cooder. The story goes Mick encourages Keith to come listen. Keith is changed, composing and playing many of the Stones best hits in open G, even removing the 6th string from his guitars, being in the way of the root note on string 5. Ever wonder why many complain online Keith Richards is so hard to play (in standard tuning)? Yeah, that's why.

[@steveseymour7138]

Great good lesson for just making it up as you went along (so you say;-@)- It may not have anything to do with you posting it but I remember requesting this song. Again thanks for another great lesson, you've a way of breaking down songs for beginners to understand, only criticism is that it's very very hard to hear you talk, one has to really pay attention to where your fingers are. I think it's time for you to start planing your world tour.

[@delpuckett]

nice shirt !!!

[@viXzen]

Great lesson man! And my favorite Stones song :) Anyways, could it be that its suppose to go 10-10-7 not 10-7-7 on the verse?

[@storm3380]

nice guitar, great tutorial...thx man

[@1430sl]

What are the best strings, acoustic, classic (nylon), or electric? In the case of using magnetic pickup's, it will be better electrical I suppose ... but, the electrical strings are more difficult to press? Thank you very much!

[@byteme978]

What is your string pattern when you are strumming in the beginning?

[@colinmiddleton6316]

I need more cowbell : ) Sound good.

[@jimmyross6812]

What gauge strings are you using Nigel?

[@TheBootlegger007]

A D G out of a light gauge set. 01 - 46

[@amandasteven1400]

was the middle string tuned to GEE SEE or DEE? we couldnt understand him and 'closed caption' left it out (sigh)

[@TheBootlegger007]

G D G In description of video above lyrics etc

[@amandasteven1400]

@@TheBootlegger007 oh ok.... thanks :)

[@David-su4is]

Sir, are your cords just straight bars? I can't really tell from the video and I'm still very new at the 3 string thing.

[@TheBootlegger007]

Thats correct. i am tuned to an open chord. G. - G D G. 5th fret = C 7th Fret D etc

[@David-su4is]

Nigel McTrustry thank you.

[@guybartlett9587]

Nigel, can you play, can't you hear me knocking, on the 3 string?

[@TheBootlegger007]

I haven't done a video for a while. I will put it on the list. It's probably in open G.

It sounds like you’ve got Clapton’s Cocaine riff in there toward the end of the song.
