Hi again Mike,
As concerns "I am a Man of Constant Sorrow", there's one recurring bit of music notation that I can't figure out how to play, or rather, how you play it. I read another recently posted thread concerning this same subject matter that led me to believe that there isn't just one correct technique denoted.
I slowed down the video of you playing the above sections (and a few other sections in the tutorial) but can't definitively determine how you are playing these "chords". The fact that this particular song accommodates (even invites) inexact strumming techniques and improvised ghost strums makes it all the more difficult to determine what to do with them. I just know that I like how it sounds when you play it and would like to imitate that sound.
Sometimes it appears that you simply don't address them at all, making me wonder whether that particular notation is a cue to just let the chord ring out (but why then represent that technique as dual sixteenth notes/chords?). Clearly, clarification and/or suggestions would be very much appreciated.
Sascha
