Got that Texas blues thing going. Nice visuals too. Like the sound holes and Git.

I use MAGIX Movie edit pro 11 which is really out of date now but (I think I got it in '06).

I got it strung up with the 5-4-3 strings because I was thinking about using this guitar more for Chuck Berry/Rolling Stones type of thing even though this video is not an example of that...
