Robert's Brown Eyed Girl Lesson
Hey Robert! Our "Student Band" is working on adding two more songs to add to the set for another go later in the summer and is planning to add this standard. My instructor showed it to me using high E and G strings plucked at the same time hybrid style moving up the neck from 3rd fret and 8th fret, ending in open D chord. Your way is nice and compact and easier to play, though I fumble with both now. Thank you for the lesson again, as always. I am going to keep learning both ways and see which ends up sounding/feeling better for me. Maybe I'll play it different ways in different parts of the song.
