B Woods	Posted Hide Post Very nice job, clean and lyrical. Thanks. And the guitar! Is it possible for a guitar to sound any better than that? Cheers! B

sonoman	Posted Hide Post There's the answer to anyone's question about a CJ being suited for fingerstyle. Schweeet! I use my CJA for all manner of music. Looks to be open G, which would make sense for one of Dwayne's tunes. Maybe as good a slide player as ever drew breath. Great job.

Posted Hide Post Ageed, you've given me a new appreciation for using a CJ for fingerstyle. That's all I play and I haven't even looked in the direction of a CJ. Great playing. A slight woodiness to the tone was well received by these ears. What is the wood combo by the way. Stuart This message has been edited.

redavide	Posted Hide Post Stuart, E. Indian Rosewood Back & Sides w/ Spruce top. It's about 9 years old and seems to sound better every year. You should try one out if you get the chance -- just a really, really great all-around guitar. Dave

redavide	Posted Hide Post Sonoman, Actually, it's an open D tuning with a capo at the 2nd fret, making it open E. I use the capo to avoid tuning the guitar to open E which feels like it might put too much tension on the neck. Dave

rick-slo	Posted Hide Post Sounds good Dave, very close to what the CJ I had sounded like. Nice playing. I have only heard Kottke's take on the tune. Is your version more like Allman's?

redavide	Posted Hide Post Yeah, more like the version on Eat A Peach which is actually two guitars -- Duane Allman and Dickey Betts together. I did whatever I could to try to make one guitar sound like their duet version.

maplebaby	Posted Hide Post great job - I appreciate the expression you put into your playing. Your guitar does sound great - what guage and brand of string are you using in the video and is that your 1st preference? Great playing - look forward to more video posts!
