I’ve decided to sell my Martin OM-21 with it’s original, Martin-branded hardshell case. For anyone unfamiliar with OM style bodies - They’re awesome! They are a bit thinner front-to-back than the typical dreadnaught shape, which not only makes them much more comfortable to play but also...

So here is another single from my new singer/songwriter album. Just me and my HD-28 singing about a bunch of things that may have happened in 1967. Enjoy!

Here’s my new single “Northern Folk”. Recorded live with 2 mics, guitar and vocals at the same time. Guitar is a Gibson J-45 in DADGAD. Style is singer/songwriter/country/Americana type thing. Enjoy!

Comes a Time is the ninth studio album by Canadian singer-songwriter Neil Young, released by Reprise Records in October 1978. Its songs are written as moralizing discourses on love's failures and recovering from worldly troubles. Dedicated to our lovers and peoples looking for love, especially...

"All You Need Is Love" is a song by the English rock band the Beatles that was released as a non-album single in July 1967. It was written by John Lennon and credited to the Lennon–McCartney partnership. Election Day is a day for the future of our children and grandchildren!!! Love is all we...

Mysterious Girl is a song composed by "jwmmakerofmusic". A lovely story, and a beautiful melody! I dedicate this song to all lovers of our world! May you be blinded by love alone, and see the world being filled with this love without the sight of color, race or religion. Feedback is much...

I've been jonesing for a while for this model. Adirondack top, mahogany back and sides. White body bindings. I've post poned driving 2 hours to the nearest guitar shop who had it in stock for a while this winter. To save on gas. Martin have raised their prices by 6% recently... Guitar shop...

Bridges and Walls, Original Words and Music by Rene A We need to make a serious choice, today!!! Not tomorrow! Do we build walls; or bridges that can allow communication, understanding and love to start creeping and can someday stand united. Make love, not war!!! Peace and hope be in our...

"Feel Like Makin' Love" is a song by English supergroup Bad Company. The power ballad originally appeared on the LP Straight Shooter in April 1975 and was released as a single in August of the same year. It was named the 78th best hard rock song of all time. Make love, not war!!! For peace in...

The worship band I joined last year is one the best I’ve ever been on. We generally have four guitar players, (all acoustic), percussion, and electric bass. We’re all in our 60s and been playing for decades. So each one knows enough to listen to the others and try to mix it up so that we’re not...

Hey, it's been a minute. Hope everyone is doing well. A couple of folks roped me into some lead jamming. Here's what I dropped:

First of all these are recordings from the book The Americana Guitar Book. It includes four studies at the end and these are two of them. I would like to listen and learn more about this ambient/instrumental??? americana style. Can you recomend me more of this music and are there any courses?

Been away for a while. Sort of been in an inspirational funk. Just have to play my way out of it I guess. Hope everyone is safe and well.

'Wandering Thoughts' is a single from an acoustic guitar album i have coming out next month. During this last year when music closed i spent quite a bit of time in the country, just playing by myself, lots of focus on the acoustic guitar. Slowly this project came about, and i got to record it...

Hello. I am looking at flat top acoustic guitars to play jazz/jam band music. I am a "quality over quantity" type and only own one guitar, a Mule steel tricone. My Mule covers all the bases for me and then some. I would like to own a wood flat top to play jazz and jam on. I will state I am a...

Wanted to give the gift of music to a deserving young person this Christmas. I found this Jasmine JO-36 online at Music & Arts. $119.00 w/ free shipping to a local Music & Arts storefront. I was hoping... wishing... praying that it would be a playable beginner instrument. Picked it up yesterday...

One of the first rock super groups to ever come together was Blind Faith back in 1969. Some incredible music came out of that collaboration. Here’s my take on Presence of the Lord, which is a really cool chord progression & song from that album:

A little plink around with the open D major chord shape:

I was in a thrift store the other day and came across an interesting dreadnought, the first thing I noticed was a Martin style headstock with no name or logo. One tuner has been replaced. A look in the soundhole showed Cimar No. 750 Made in Japan. Unusual bridge design with large screws at...

I can't get enough of this. I love CHVRCHES. I've never heard such effective use of synthesizer backup to vocals but their acoustic performances just blow me away. Hear the Martin. Mic'd, not amplified. The RD2000 sounds like a concert grand. Please watch and listen on YouTube. It will be...

Hello guys, long time no see! In this beginner lesson I’ll teach you a very easy and beautiful neo soul chord progression that will work for both acoustic and electric guitars. Only 4 chords needed! This lesson will be perfect for players who already have some experience in playing guitar, but...

Okay, I’ll get some crap for this post, but … Imagine: a Taylor 410 acoustic (no electronics or cutaway), versus an American Standard Strat, with a few upgrades. Used resale prices are similar. I can have one or the other, not both. Both are really nice. Really, really nice. I’m strictly a...

Trying to figure out model/ year and approximate resale value. Any help appreciated.

Hey yall, Back on my transcribing kick, trying to figure out Blackbird particularly rn. Like usual, I can figure out "ahh this is a B note here" and then I find out its not the correct place to play or maybe the treble note is right but the bass note isn't. Also note that I use Transcribe...

As in, New Free Acoustic Guitar Day. I picked up this beauty from the Craigslist Free ads: A Yamaha F-310. I looked it up, and they are marketed as a full-sized inexpensive beginner guitar, so nothing special, but I don't have a wire-string campfire acoustic, so I was glad to get it...
