London Experimental is here to share interesting and fun things on the guitar (and a few other instruments as well) and help you to get more out of playing music. We cover beginner to advanced techniques and explain them in an easy to understand way, so you can focus on learning the things that make playing guitar an enjoyable and fulfilling journey.
Thanks for short simple explanation. I'm working on Lapsteel right now and from the beginning its hard to find something simple to understand. Now off to practice :)
Hi. I am new in lap steel playing. What kind of strings do you recomend for this tuning? Are the GHS 15-36 C6 set will be ok for this tuning? Thank you
Ive been having issues with this model and getting the correct low end string tension. Its a 22.5 shorter scale lapsteel. Those GHS strings did not work for me. Im still trying to find the correct strings
I agree why be negative about a helpful video like this? In Philadelphia we say a person like this probably had a tea spoon of shit for breakfast in the morning.
Thanks for the intro lesson. I believe it would be significantly easier to follow the diagram and your hand position if you shot this from your point of that. That is the same point of view we have, and thus it would eliminate the need to reverse everything we are seeing. For example: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rARCcW3I0K4.html
I always come back to this video every couple of months after giving up, but today I realized that now I can play what I listen, and I can finally begin to follow this lesson.
Although I'v been familiar with Zappa's music for a good 25 years (Roxy is my absolute fave), for some reason I had missed this song before the documentary flick. Hauntingly beautiful, and while simple, the 9/4 makes it sound fresh and it somehow takes you back to 80's feels. Very nice lesson, took me a whole 5 seconds to learn the song! :D
