alanabit:Well it is,and it isn't!
I've tried it in a minor key.Didn't sound like what Guthrie was doing.But then,why should it!As I said,I play it using a"C" chord,using hammering on/off etc.It sounds to me as if he is singing
in the minor,but playing straight D.Maybe my ears aint hearing right!
I think the minor sound is created by only hitting certain strings while still holding down the "C"chord!I'm getting lost here;What do you think?
Sorry for extending the thread drift.
