Thanks, man, this was very helpful… Only one suggestion: it would be great if you can show with more detail the position of your fingers for every note.

I would like to see TN. Flatop Box, too. I’ve been butchering that on my own for too long.

great lesson. and yes it was origanlly tuned to F.
[Translate]
Well, to stop the arguing between people about what tuning it is or not. The first recording of Folsom Prison Blues, Johnny, Luther and Marshall were tuned up to F.
So, Either tune up to F or put a capo on the first fret, Same thing.

can you play the whole song in normal time at the start of the video so we can hear how it is supposed to sound from the start.
[Translate]
you should tell people how to play the chords
[Translate]
thanks man great vid
[Translate]
This song is just just standard tuning if that is what you are ASKING
[Translate]
If you want to play with the cd or anything, put a capo on the first fret.

Does anyone know the tuning? Would be a great help if someone told me. Thanks
