Seagull Merlin M4 Lesson - 2 Finger Claw Hammer

[@TheECP]

I love the sound of this, your videos are one of the reasons I decided to buy myself a Merlin and am currently learning how to jam out on it! Can't wait to learn how to do this.

[@RyansSeagullMerlinM4Lessons]

Thanks for watching

[@alankingwell]

Nice one mate ,,,you have convinced me to get one ,,,,big thumbs up 👍👍👍

[@allanblack8635]

As a person who loves playing instruments but has no patience to learn I am about to downgrade from ukulele to mountain dulcimer to build confidence and your videos are amazing. Thank you

[@MrZmandog]

Thank you I know that took some time to prepare but i pick up so much on it . I hope you will consider doing some more like that. It help the way you broke it down so that old guy like me that has never played could pick up on it. Thanks once again.

[@RyansSeagullMerlinM4Lessons]

Thanks Richard. Glad it helps. And yes I plan to do more in this style.

[@MrZmandog]

Do you have the tabs for Drunken Sailor would you consider working on it I know we are always asking as I learn to play I will share.

[@javtah]

Thanks man! This got me going with some great groves. An excellent orientation to using this for the blues. Loving it!

[@RyansSeagullMerlinM4Lessons]

[@kylecoats4444]

Man this is difficult! I don't know why I'm having so much trouble coordinating my fingers. Should I just keep practicing the downstrokes first? Good lesson thanks! -Bri

[@RyansSeagullMerlinM4Lessons]

You can do it! I did another vid with a close up of my picking fingers. See below kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpK5aXquntWlaqc

[@Jenny_bell_key]

Cool! Can you use regular dulcimer tab with this instrument?

[@MrZmandog]

Hello Ryan's yes it's me again could I ask a huge favor and ask if you could show a slow strumming of the clawhammer . i'm watching close I can't tell how your strumming. I hope you will consider sharing. hey thanks for you do to help us learn
