[N] Hi everybody, Jerry Donkers here.
First of all I want to thank you very much for your kind comments on me playing the Nibus Review.
_ _ I got a lot of questions, how do I play that, what do I do?
So what I'm going to do now is show you what I do and hope you like it, hope you can pick up some proper inspiring from it. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Let's start with my right hand technique.
What I do is I play the bass or the root note of the chord with my thumb and embellish the rest with my fingers.
[C] I _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
