Thanks Bob! Glad to hear you are getting some value from the video. You are always welcome to join our Zoom meeting on Monday nights at 6:30 pm PST. We typically play around 14 songs in an hour.

Good job on this classic! My neighbor and I will be accompanying you with our three strings.

Thanks Ambrose! I have never really worked on riffs playing 6 strings, but for some reason I’m compelled to convert and try them on my 3-string guitar. Note: I have them tabbed out for all to enjoy in our free Guitarslingers songbook!

Nice job! Slick work on the riff.

Thanks Rich! The Calypso (DDUUDU) is my go to pattern and is a good fit here. The riff, however, took a lot more work to play fast enough. I’m no shredder!

Good strum pattern on this.

Thanks Uncle John and Poorness! I love the easy songs too (the riff took some work though!). The size of our group does vary, but we still have a great time! Always good to get a Beatles song in the playlist!

Nicely done Doug. Small group but looks like they were digging it.
