Drop D Outlaw Country Electric Guitar With A Twist!

[@guthrietrappmusic]

The thumbnail photo is of my uncle Jerry Trapp and me when I was just a young lad. I started on harmonica, but put it down for interest in the guitar not long after. Jerry taught me so much when I was a kid. Like an older brother to me. Those were the days.

So nice guthrie thank you so mutch for sharing! Thanks Jerry Trapp for all!

Hey Guthrie, you are truly a breath of fresh air. We are spreading your name up here in the great white north far and wide. If you need some shovels for snow we have lots of extras. We love everything you do. ❤❤❤

[@guthrietrappmusic]

Thanks, that’s great to hear!

“ A fingernail ripper offer!” I love that terminology GT. I’m stealing that one ! Great video as usual my friend.

[@lifelongfan07]

You’re killing it Guthrie Trapp. I wish I could afford to travel and actually SEE you BuK and Jedd. Hopefully one day I will.

[@jega157]

Go to Nashville and see him at the underdog. GT plays usually Monday's, Jack on Thursday. Well worth the effort.

[@slyyeti4336]

@@jega157what about Buk

[@jega157]

@@slyyeti4336 not sure where he plays out.

Man, that Tele sounds soooo legit! Could listen to you for hours.

Wow! Thanks for kicking me out of the D minor swamp and into the D major melody'land! 🎶🎸

Thank you Guthrie. Been a rough week but these post always make it better. 💯🎵🙏🖖♾️⭐️🎵

[@DiegoStoneDiego]

Absolute joy. That's what your videos bring to me Guthrie. If this doesn't make you grab your guitar and dig into it idk what else would make it. Thanks!

[@guthrietrappmusic]

That’s awesome, glad you like it!

[@ABBYDOG26]

Such crazy nice tone .

[@stephencameron2603]

Thanks so much for inspiring and sharing your adventures with us - we never get tired of hearing your lessons and stories! ZZ Top will be making a stop up here in Canada in June and I'm so excited to get to hear them play. Enjoy Hawaii!

[@guthrietrappmusic]

Glad you’re enjoying the adventures!

[@jdwild1698]

Guthrie you are the man ! Damn dude that was killer,thanks for all the inspiration and your time ! I love the Drop D stuff especially on acoustic. So much here to practice with,love it ! Many thanks and more non guitar vids please . Puzzles are a blast ...mostly in the winter for us northerners ...

[@JasonCaron-qv3cp]

Sick intro again GT, thanks for another great share, and always good vibes with your words.

[@guthrietrappmusic]

Thanks, glad you liked it!

[@stuartwhite7514]

Love your channel and stories. Amazing player. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge with us.

[@guthrietrappmusic]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@MNGuitars]

Nasty intro! So psyched to hear the trio is releasing new music early in the year!!!! Wooooo!!!!

[@strato-dave]

love jigsaw puzzles haven't done one for awhile... I had one of an underwater ocean scene that I poured clear resin over to make a table top .....looked really cool. Fun to frame them and hang them on the wall too.

[@guthrietrappmusic]

That's a great idea!

[@pepelepew207]

I like the cooking analogy!

[@MrRobbiewoodward]

You dedicate so much of your time to playing guitar gigs tours teaching that you definitely need another outlet a hobby. Jigsaw puzzles are awesome to do. I use to do the crossword every day from the local paper and Sundays big crossword. Having a hobby that gets your brain operating in a different way that's a gift good for you man!

[@guthrietrappmusic]

Agreed. We need it!

[@marcterencemckenna]

GT loves a puzzle!! good tale dude. Give my love to the Ohana on the big island.

[@gymbo3968]

Thank you sooo much for all of your videos. Trying to learn more about the fretboard and you’re helping immensely. Quick question, do you typically use amp distortion or pedal distortion? I’m sure you rely on pedals often if you’re using backline amps but what would be your preference? Thanks again!

[@nzprojects]

Killer intro, great sound.😎🎶🎸☮

[@BenjaminUbayyed-po9tc]

dominant drop d always makes me think of a million movies

[@budrizzo8167]

Really enjoying the new videos and getting my mind off these fires for a minute.

[@createlovehappy]

Puzzles are cool. My Buddy used to have one going in the lounge of the studio in Oakland all the time. Great for taking breaks

[@hearpalhere]

Great playing as always Guthrie, thanks for sharing! Man, just going into a different tuning can be so much fun and creative. You almost can't help but come up with something new. When I first started learning slide, I would regularly play in open G. Then, I came up with some pretty cool riffing on the low strings but changed my high E string back to E so I could solo more comfortably. Turned out to be a great tuning for me (DGDGBE) - would definitely recommend it to everyone). Rock on Guthrie, have fun in Hawaii! Hope you have a great trip.

[@Take8sRecording]

New music from the Trio!❤❤❤

[@tomcoryell]

Holy Crap Mr. Trapp! 100k on the way!

[@robertsanchez9487]

Hi Guthrie, from Spain here. Thank you very much for all your videos and explanations, it helps a lot! I m planning a trip to Nashville , but I d like to have at least the chance to see you playing. I ll be there end of February and beginning of march. Will you be in the area, may be a gig during these 2 weeks?

[@MichaelAntus]

Good stuff Guthrie. Take some video of Hawaii for us snow bound pickers...

[@guthrietrappmusic]

Thanks, I’ll see what I can do!

[@jasonpitts8395]

Man..I arrive in Hawaii the day after the last show. Safe travels

[@aqualuna367]

Luv that Tom Buko chord change ..always luv your playing .Thx mate , cheers Leigh ( ps I would be happy to send you some cooking you tube recommendations if you let me know what you like to cook , Ive been involved in the hospitality business my whole life )

[@dragui9932]

Thank you!

[@babasingh6606]

Greetings from L.A. My guitars burned up with my home this week, been watching your vids again, homesick for Tennessee. You are my jigsaw puzzle today, GT - thank you, I needed the distraction.

[@JeffBostick222]

😢😔😔 Glad you're safe but sad about your home and guitars. Hard to watch those tools feed the flames but the creator - you - is still walking.

[@guthrietrappmusic]

So sorry to hear this. Our hearts go out to you. I can’t imagine what that’s like.

[@JeffBostick222]

I'm completely a seat of the pants cook and love to be creative with it. But I get ya.

[@janbay4119]

Great playing, great sound! Thanks for demonstrating those hot licks in drop D tuning!

[@guthrietrappmusic]

Glad you liked it!

[@gbarge4]

Enjoy Hawaii, GT. Sounds fun and a heck of an experience. Not every kid on the block gets to do that, and not with the Rt. Rev. Mr. Gibbons. Growing up in the 60s, I never thought I'd see the islands with my own eyes. Then got to sail there in a 29' boat (not the safest one, either) at age 20. There's magic and danger all around those islands.

[@guthrietrappmusic]

Thanks for the story!

[@daniel_christopher]

Me and my gal puzzle every winter..it's freaky when you get into the flow state. Thanks for all you do. Do you and Josh Smith happen to know each other? If you ever shared a stage that'd be some hot fun!

[@adambrunner9462]

I've got a 5000 piece puzzle thats a Van Gogh collage that was like $100 bucks. It's a big boy puzzle been sitting in on a shelf for probably 10 years now. Its huge and would look killer framed. Feeling froggy say the word its its yours GT! But I do love puzzles and used to do them a lot when I didn't sleep sometimes! 🤣

[@stevec9972]

5k pieces. you may need to have a puzzle room set up to assemble that 😅

[@adambrunner9462]

@stevec9972 No seriously that's part of the problem. Need a big piece of plywood on sawhorses or something in the garage. Someday we'll get that fucker together! Lol Funny thing is that many pieces you'd get to the end and be missing a piece for sure! Completely devastating!😂

[@Markh2071]

Firing on all cylinders my good man.

[@Panjaz]

Hey Guthrie, I got the biggest puzzle of all although I can’t do jigsaw because I’m blind, but I got a bigger puzzle the guitar

[@JamesBowman-j9z]

Hi GT. I always enjoy your videos. I hope you have a great trip to Hawaii. That will be great marking that off your to do list! I spent Saturday with your parole officer, Chris, and had a good time. I miss seeing you, man! Hope to see you soon. Bill

[@joejatek2261]

Excellent, excellent stuff, explained and aptly demonstrated (for free) - what's not to love? I'm going to try to Cooder-ize some of those ideas, and sneak it into my blues somewhere! That snowy vista at the close is nice, too.

Never been a fan of guitars that color, but you sure make that one sound purdy.

There's a company called Pomegranate which does a great range of Jigsaws, their repros of great artworks are so rewarding. Ravenburg too. Loved that opening jam.

My wife and I have been working on a 1000 piece for about a week. I got a love hate thing going on with the puzzle.

[@guthrietrappmusic]

I thought they were missing pieces from the factory. Ha

[@jmwise80]

We’re making headway. It’s just a slog though. And yes. There are several pieces that we don’t believe exist. I was as shocked as you were about how gratifying puzzles were. Had totally forgotten. Really wish I would have started on 500 pieces though.😹

Puzzles are great GT. Thanks for the nod to us puzzle nerds out there. Check out Blue Kazoo. They have some pretty high quality puzzles. I especially like their planet and space series. The round ones are challenging.

How aware are you of the chord you are playing over? Do you have to ask yourself ever - what chord is this? Ah… a G ok… then see the g chords… i have to do that if its new music and im composing a part up the neck. When you were new to this how much did you need to ask yourself what chord you are over?

[@davidt9841]

Got a nice fire going.. cracklin', and nice and warm.. emptied the puzzle onto the table (1000 pc), an hour later, threw the puzzle into the fire.. still nice and warm.
