You've Got To Move... on cigar box guitar

Описание к видео You've Got To Move... on cigar box guitar

Mississippi Fred McDowell's classic, transposed to 3 string. It not an exact repro, it's just intended to convey the basics of the original. One thing I hope this shows is that playing slide on the cigar box guitar is about more than just sliding a bottleneck up and down the strings. Essential to the piece is the bass part, on the bottom and middle strings, which repeats throughout the tune, with the slide weaving in and out. To play in this style you will need your guitar set up with a reasonably low action and fairly heavy strings to get a decently high tension in order to use the slide cleanly. I'm playing one of my own guitars, with a ChickenboneJohn Signature Sapphire slide. The amp is a Roland MicroCube, no distortion, with a little mild reverb. I get fed up of seeing and hearing stuff with hugely overdriven sound and loads of effects, when you can't hear the guitar itself.
