Klangbox, Flatpup, Gmin

I'll probably catch some flack for doing this song to death, but it's a completely new version for me. I took El Segundo off the wall and tuned it to Gmin. After screwing around a little this fell out. I like this version a lot even if not perfectly played.I have a Klangbox Flatpup plugged into my Fender Champ Tube Amp. Sounds beautiful!

Thanks Uncle John. It just fell out of the guitar. This was recorded friday afternoon and I have it down better today. I can't work in the signature riff except to play it at the very end

Yup, this tuning and strum are effective. Good one. Almost like different song.

James, adding a 132nd verse is not playing the same song. :-)

Thanks for taking a look.

Thanks Reeds. I like the contrast of the cheery bum diddy strum and minor tuning.
