David Grier at the Fretboard Journal - "Beaumont Rag" video free download

In early 2013, the always entertaining David Grier stopped by the Fretboard Journal offices to perform a few tunes. Along with some jokes, most of which we couldn't air, he played this great rendition of "Beaumont Rag."

Grier has played a variety of guitars over the years. In this clip, he's playing a dreadnought built by Dake Traphagen in Bellingham, Washington.

After performing the tune, he slows down his playing a bit and offers a tip or two for improving your own playing. Hope you enjoy!

Grier was the cover story of the Fretboard Journal #16, still available via our website.
