The Water is Wide
Here's one I was pleased to find was a traditional tune, so no copyright problems.
It's in dropped D tuning, not overly challenging, but it's got a few unusual fingerings happening and a nice fluttery ending which uses a very neat sting-skipping finger pluck. It can come in handy often as an interesting texturizer.
The lessons include the overhead shot movie as well as the standard front on version, as per the image, both in Hi Res, of course. I think this 'player's point of view' angle makes it mush easier to see what's going on fingering-wise. You also get the animated fretboard following the action. This one took me all day to do as I have to put each dot in the timeline by hand and stretch it along accordingly. Very exacting and tedious work, so I hope you buy it! I use Adobe Premiere Elements for this, if anyone is interested.
The download also includes tab and notation, the mp3 of it, two midi files and the GuitarPro file.
I've used my new Ayers Guitar for this. I'm very pleased with the nice crisp sound. I hope the ornate fingerboard doesn't make learning this any more difficult than it is. On the overhead movie, you can see the fretboard dots on the side of the neck, though.
It's such a beautiful composition, it's well worth having in your repertoire.
