Search, Keni Lee Recently, I purchased tablature writing software, and now I’m in the process of tabbing many of my arrangements that appear as videos here on Youtube.

It is an original 1935 National Duolian that has been rebuilt with a new neck from National Resophonic. If you are interested in a reasonably priced good quality reproduction, please visit Frank at republicguitars. Thank you for your interest. Happy New Year.

Thank you. It is difficult to get a clear image if the camera is backed off enough to see both hands. So currently, this is the best I can supply, without a two camera shoot and movie software to edit.

The second method it no different than fingerpicking in standard; bass runs, licks, chords, with the addition of slide. Many players think a guitar needs to have a high action for Bottlneck. This is not true. It is all about string guage related to tuning to get the proper string tension. There will be a third CD available. It is in the works. I’m glad you are enjoying these lessons, and they are clear and informative. Please stay in touch. Enjoy.

Thank you John for your compliments. I will post Part 3 soon. I actually think there are two styles of Bottleneck. The first I call “Old School”. This is like my arrangement of Motherless Children. Everything is played with the Bottleneck, no fretted notes or chords. I believe this was a method utilized when you had an old guitar that had a bowed neck, and the strings where too high from the fingerboard.

Really looking forward to part 3 Keni… this lesson, like most of your adaptions, has a very nice balance between bottleneck use, licks, and chords, which makes it a real pleasure to learn and play… definitely my favorite so far! By the way, will there be a 3rd CD in your lesson series? I’ve just finished the 2nd CD and would love to continue learning from you. From all the the on-line lessons, yours are the clearest and most helpful, and definitely the most rewarding… excellent!
John

Thank you. This is my rebuilt 1935 National Duolian with a 14 fret neck. The 14 fret guitar has a shorter body than the 12 fret. It has less bass than the 12 fret, but has a more banjo like tone. As far as the tone, fingerpicks are key. The sharp crisp attack of a pick makes the cone ring on a resonator guitar the same way it makes a banjo skin sing. Bare fingers work, but produce a very mellow plunky tone.
