Great stuff Toby. Still don't know how you can fingerpick a 12 string though.

It's easy. You just think about it twice before picking it once.

Good job! Really enjoyed those tunes.

I've never used a slide. I don't have a slide to give it a try. How do you play chords with the slide on your ring finger? Doesn't it slide off the individual strings? Doesn't it hit adjacent strings?

That's wonderful, Toby! Thanks for the two-fer. That's certainly worth the price of admission.

I really love that little parlor! Sweet...

Thanks!

I use my other three fingers to play chords and with practice, the slide technique improves, like anything else. It doesn't hit adjacent strings nor does it slide off.
