Bon Iver – Skinny Love (Acoustic Guitar Cover)

Written by

in

A cover of Bon Iver’s Skinny Love; just the guitar, no vocals (I can’t sing, haha). You can sing whilst you watch it.. Video is from a Nikon D5000. Audio is from my iPhone 4 sitting in front of the Guitar. The guitar is a 30 year old Yamaha FG-375S with D’addario Electric Guitar strings. Apologies for the camera work, I had hoped the first few frets would be clearer in the video. I edited it together using Final Cut Pro. Please rate and comment, Thanks!
Video Rating: 4 / 5
