Knighthood? Well... I don't mind if I do ;D

It's great feeling when somebody says a good word about your tabs.
Most of the guys, who do covers, reply with "sorry, no tabs".
I think it's better if anybody can play close to original.

Should I record videos for the songs? What do you think?

So I vote for Dinosaur Stratmad

Yes MK strats are superb! the older the better I think personally.
 
The guy in my local Fender approved guitar shop wants first refusal should I sell one of them, I said 'never'!
I did walk out however with a brand new 2011 'Fender '50's Stratocaster' in fiesta red with maple neck!!
I just fell in love with it after having a go on it while the guy was servicing one of my MK's!!.

Be good to have an official tab book for the collection!

Can't write it often enough! Playing it is even better, though :-)

Sounds great! Does it feel like the 50's Roadworn?

Hey foma,

I registered on this forum for the sole purpose of saying THANK YOU VERY MUCH for your great and accurate chords for all the new songs! I've been playing them over and over again! You don't happen to have the chords for the song "Follow the ribbon" as well? It's one of my favourite songs from the album (Don't know why it's on the bonus tracks, it should have been the albums final song) but I can't find the chords anywhere and I'm absolutely hopeless at figuring out these things on my own (and believe me I tried).

Any help would be highly appreciated :)

Yeah, indeed, "River Of Grog" is kind of hypnotic!
Of course I'm saying this for musicians (real ones, I mean)...
Regular mainstream listeners of music will find it "weak" or "boring" or even "annoying"... but what can I say to these people?... Well, God save their (musical) poor souls... ;)

And by the way, you're totally right, Nuno. Yesterday I've listened to River of grog on a proper sound system for the first time and I was paralysed by the music! I'm not a musician, but I can say the chord progression is awesome!

Wow, a lot of time and effort has been put into figuring out the songs on Privateering.  :thumbsup
I might try and find the time to practice........
