Question about JTR intro

TheGuyThatJaneLikes · Post by **TheGuyThatJaneLikes** » Sat Jun 18, 2005 2:17 pm

I was just playing the intro to JTR and it seems to me like there's a beat or something missing between E3 - G4 and the 1/3 slide.

Could someone tell me if I'm right or am I just hearing something the way Dave plays it that's not actually there?

Thanks.

I'll make an audio of how I play it if that will help you.

Here you go. Its on a six string because I don't have a twelver. Hope it helps.

I think your not playing the G chord before the 1-3 slide long enough.

Even better, I'm playing it on a sixer, myself.

You could be right. I'll try it after I'm done studying (Grade 12 publics...disgusting).

Hey,

Firstly I think you're strumming way too much on it. The way I learned it was I played it with the recording at the same time, and if I went off beat that I would be able to tell right away.

Here's how I do it: http://www.globexdesigns.com/misc/jtr.mp3

Yes, you're strumming two times too fast. (And your guitar is out of tune, just something to look into.)
