    https://banjobenclark.com/lessons/guitar-pov-pickalong-unclouded-day-guitar-intermediate Let’s pick! The point of the Pickalong lessons is not to teach you a tabbed solo or backup, but to get you actually playing along by using your eyes and ears! Don’t forget that you can slow down the video!

    @BanjoBen, this is seriously the best thing that has ever happened to this site. Keep it up!!

  3. Kevin Burkholder ·

    @BanjoBen the video says “unlcouded” instead of “unclouded”

    Ooh, new Martin?? That thing sounds awesome. Who was singing?

  5. Ben Clark Leader ·

    Fixed, thanks!

    Michael_Mark: Ooh, new Martin?? That thing sounds awesome. Thanks man! I bought it last Saturday night. George Gruhn came to my house and brought it, knowing I have a weakness for shade top Martins. He didn’t go home with it. Michael_Mark: Who was singing? That’s my Director of Operations, Daniel! He did a great job.

    Michael_Mark: That thing sounds awesome. I HATE how Vimeo squashes the audio! It sounds so much better when I upload to YouTube or Facebook.

  8. Michael Mark Leader ·

    Are you going to stay with Vimeo on the new site?

  9. Ben Clark Leader ·

    Yeah, it makes the most sense–so many folks use them. I going to talk with them about it.

    “George Gruhn came to my house…” Name dropper….

  11. Ben Clark Leader ·

    I don’t name drop. If there’s one thing Taylor Swift taught me, it was not to drop names.

  12. paige garwood ·

    Thud. Oh, look… a name.

  13. Mike Reisz ·

    BanjoBen: I don’t name drop. If there’s one thing Taylor Swift taught me, it was not to drop names. Ha!

  14. Mike Reisz ·

    That is a nice headstock! You can maybe bribe the kids to change the strings Is that a 12 fret? I never saw the shoulder, but it sounds a bit like one.

  15. Ben Clark Leader ·

    Mike_R: Is that a 12 fret? I never saw the shoulder, but it sounds a bit like one. Yep! 12 fret slope shoulder! Gruhn Guitars

  16. Mike Reisz ·

    That’s a very nice guitar. Not sure if the pics are of your exact one, but that back is gorgeous! The 12 fret dreadnoughts really do fill a different niche. I hope you enjoy it! I still think you ought to train the kids to change the strings I picked a 12 fret slot head out for a neighbor. She always brings it over for me to change the strings. That’s the only time I am not thrilled with the slot head.

    What do you mean, new site?

  18. Michael Mark Leader ·

    Ben’s planning a shiny new site remodel! I think late 2022 or early 2023 was the expected finish time. I could be wrong though.

  19. Tony DeRossett ·
