Subject: The Great Dobro Sessions
I already own the Great Dobro Sessions CD and have been enjoying it for many months now. I also play Dobro and am learning McHatties Waltz on my own. I was searching to see if there was any tablature out there for it and came across your website's book and cd offer. I am writing to ask if the book can be sold separately since I already own the cd.
Thanks for your fine website . . . . have been enjoying roaming around it this afternoon.
Sincerely,
Sandi lankford
Greetings Sandi,
Yes, we have the book in stock without the CD...it lists at 17.95...we have a 20% discount too...however you might want to add on a few other accessories since there's a flat 5.00 shipping fee. You may call Tradd @ 888-209-8434 to place your order.
Isn't that a great CD! It was produced by Tut Taylor (we published his biography recently...see our Wisdom of the Wood titles) and Jerry Douglas...
Have fun with your Dobro studies...Mickey
Subject: jerry douglas tuning
how does jerry douglas tune his guitar- thank you, Paul
Greetings Paul,
Jerry Douglas uses a variety of tunings...although, as is true with most bluegrass squareneck dobro players, the main tuning he uses is G B D G B D...listen to "Under the Wire" and you'll hear his experimental side...his "Restless on the Farm" definitely has some out there tunings! He plays a lot of blues oriented material...I would estimate Jerry as an eclectic player more than a straight-ahead bluegrass dobroist.
Hope this helps...Mickey
