This is fantastic. I love your teaching style… “I have no idea what this chord is called, but it sounds awesome!” 😂 That’s perfect for me.

Your timing is perfect. I wanted to tune my acoustic to Open E to play around with a slide. Now I'll be wiser!

Some parts remind me on Ry Cooder and the Crossroads. Well with no slide but still sounds similar to me. Btw I am staying in normal tuning and just once in a year D tune E :) Like with 7 and 8 String guitars I do not want to suck on ever more ways :)

This is great, I’m just about to sign up to a ‘Derek trucks slide style’ course and it’s all open e

What kind of pickup is that in the neck position? Great playing!

(Drops everything, tunes all guitars to E and remembers one is not as talented as Sasha.)
