Beginners Notes (Special)

Post by Dick Sexton »

Friends, if you have not seen this and you are following the "Beginners Notes" series, I encourage you to check this out and make a copy of it for future reference and study. I just found it myself and as an "Old Beginner", am going to spend some time trying to understand what Mr. Franklin was doing in this break. It should be study material for all beginners as well as anyone wanting to advance their single note skills. Thanks to Joe Butcher/Dallas Texas for opening the thread, Aki Paivinen/Finland for directing us to it and a special thanks to Niklas Widen/Sweden for transcribing the tab. Once again, the most thanks should go to B0B for allowing us to use this great forum to communicate our thoughts about steel. http://steelguitarforum.com/Forum8/HTML/001966.html

Broken links...

Post by Dick Sexton »

Thanks Bob, your absolutely right. The links are broken, but that's not unusual for links that old, (posted 04 April 2004 05:30 AM). I was dissapointed myself when I found that out. The tab, none the less, should be of interest to followers of "Beginners Notes". I hope they might spend at least a little time looking it over. I broke it down into 4, 5, 6 notes or more, segments and was surprised to find some that were familiar. I'm still looking it over. All the best to you, DS

You´re welcome, Dick. I noticed a mistake in the 11th line. From the start it should be :



1 3 3 5
2
3 3B-3
4 3-5



and then goes on from 7-8 8 8A 8 8A-7A 6A-4A-5A 5 etc

Ricky, can you edit this if necessary.
