Bass only version of the Beatles "Blackbird"

[Dmanlamius]

I just recorded this. I only got to do one take, because my chav neighbours were banging on the walls like the chav hypocrites they are, so it is very rough...

I mess the vocal up in places as well!

I tell you though...it wasn't easy to transpose at all...

Hope you enjoy it anyway guys!

That was cool. McCartney should have done it that way.

We could do a duet........

Ha, ha, yea!

Dude, what type of guitar is that? It has a really lovely tone...

Looks gorgeous, too.

Your version of Blackbird looks very difficult to play. Nice job.

Thanks.
It's a 2007 Gretsch "G6120-1959 Chet Atkins Hollow Body" with trestle bracing. Almost the exact same guitar that Brian Setzer plays except his pickups are slightly hotter.
You can really "hear" the wood with this guitar.
After my Silo, it's tied for 2nd place as my favorite guitar.
