Taylor Guitar Truss Rod Adjustment DIY Guitar Tip

Another guitar tip:  How to adjust truss rod on a Taylor acoustic guitar.  I showed the tools I used in this adjustment.  The most important is the 1/4" (6.35 mm) truss rod wrench.  Never use the 6.5 mm which is also available on the market.  This 6.5mm wrench may cause damage to the nut of the truss rod of the Taylor acoustic guitar.  I have included the link in the video description in YouTube where can this tool be purchased.

So It's You (Raymond Lauchengco) Fingerstyle Guitar Cover

This time I made a classic OPM by Raymond Lauchenco.  The song is entitled "So It's You".  I used capo on the 2nd fret on this S Yairi guitar.

Here is the lyrics of the song:

Smile, and that's how it all started
And you came right in time
When I needed someone
And we said, "Hello"
Then suddenly, my heart was beating fast

So it's you
I've been waiting for so long
So it's you
Where were you all along?
Very special moments
This will always be with me
We are here, you and I, we belong

We touched
And we felt more beautiful
And two hands reaching out
Filled with so much longing
It felt good inside there is no denying
I'm in love

So it's you
I've been waiting for so long
So it's you
Where were you all along?
Very special moments
This will always be with me
We are here, you and I, we belong

So it's you
I've been waiting for so long
So it's you
Where were you all along?
Very special moments
This will always be with me
We are here, you and I, we belong

We are here, you and I, we belong
