Thanks Bing for leading us out of DAD into new CGG territory. Always fun to see where the instrument takes you in a different tuning.
You are welcome - thanks for watching!
You are a blessing! Becoming a patreon now! Thanks so much for what you do! Hope to meet you and jam someday!
Thank you, Debbie! Check my schedule - I may be in your neck of the woods at some point this year! www.bingfutch.com/shows/
Great tutorial! You make it look easy to sound so great.
Thanks! Near-constant practice and playing helps loads!
Thanks Bing! Love the 1-5-5 tuning. Started out that way (DAA), went to DAd because "everybody is tuning that way" (and lots of music is written for DAd). Years later I revisited DAA (and CGG) and I just love it. And the key of C is much better for me to sing with. Anything you feel led to teach on 1-5-5 - I'm all ears!!!! I don't know what I don't know!
Thanks, Jill! I'll be circling back around to 1-5-5 and C tuning in a bit. The current track through scale degrees and chords seems to be popular, so I'm rolling with it for a little bit.
Hey Bing, love the tutorial. But that T-Shirt is killer. Love it!
Thanks! Haha - if you're driving through Missouri and see these billboards, you just HAVE to stop and try some of this fudge - it's actually really good!
I find this tuning very interesting for sure. I may tune my DAD to the CGG some rainy day and give it a try.
It's a great tuning and easy on the hands - hope you get to try it (don't know what rainfall is like in your area.)
As a piano player new to the dulcimer, this makes a bit more sense to me. CGG I’ll try it!
Awesome! As someone who came from piano to dulcimer myself, this was a good easy entry into "getting" the mountain dulcimer. Have fun!
