Hard Times Coming Soon Too

In the pause while we wait for the 'key to the Highway'' style slow blues, I'll just post up an acoustic (non blues ) number.
I continue to try to write 'tunes' for acoustic. This most recent one started out sounding with rather too much of a classical guitar genre to it all.
I then used the written tune to that point as a basic framework and started improvising additional notes round it and tried to loosen up the phrasing a bit. Then tried to remember what I'd improvised and kept practising it using those changes.
In Csus2 tuning. The Vintage GG2000 Gordon Giltrap Signature Acoustic recorded by dual Avantone CK-1 mics.

By necessity pretty simple - no use of the fretting hand little finger at all any more.
