So I've been playing clawhammer for nearly two years now, learning any way I can, largely trial and error, getting some help here occasionally but mostly lurking and searching the forum archives when I've had a question. I started on a cheap Oscar Schmidt resonator that my wife bought me, then bought a used Recording King Ne Plus Ultra and finally a new Pisgah Dobson which is a joy. I've finally managed to be able to play a few songs with enough skill that I'm not completely embarrassed to play for the public so I thought I would take a my first stab at recording myself playing. I am still a bit nervous playing for a camera even if it is by myself in my office so most of the mistakes are due to that. It took about 20 takes just to get this one which I'm only barely happy with but it will have to do since it's late. I would appreciate any constructive criticism as I really feel like I need to try to take it to the next level. I hope to try and put down a couple more easy songs I have learned well over the next couple of months so hopefully this will get easier. Thanks to everyone here at BHO for your past and future help, you may have helped me in some way and not even know it! Thanks all.
