The Water Is Wide - Fingerstyle Performance

Community Recordings Audio-Video Of You Playing

Dear all,

it has been some time I shared here something about my fingerstyle journey. :slight_smile:

Right now I am going through Joe Robinsons (he was Justins guest on video some years ago) fingerstyle courses and I would like to share my performance on The Water Is Wide.

I really love how sweet it sounds, even without capo. This song is that one where I learned to play harmonics and use them in the context of chords. I cant count how many times I played this over and over again just to enjoy it and I am still not mad about that.

Songs like this is reason why bare fingers and acoustic guitar is my main focus. :slight_smile:

Wishing you great day! :turtle:

Thank you everyone for stopping by, listening and leaving nice comment. :blush:
For the journey I already did… I was saying in my head exactly same. How I was a guy who could not hold properly A chord, it is really great feel to see the difference. :turtle:
