Here is a simple fingerstyle guitar cover and arrangement of the song "I Started A Joke" by The Bee Gees. I used G-Em-C-D chord progression instead of G-Bm-C-D. Let me know what you think.
"I Started a Joke" is a melancholic and introspective song by the Bee Gees, a British-Australian pop group known for their distinctive harmonies and prolific songwriting. Released in 1968 as a part of their album "Idea," the song quickly became one of their signature tracks.
The song's lyrics delve into themes of miscommunication and the unintended consequences of words spoken in jest. It tells the story of someone who, after making a lighthearted comment, realizes that their words have caused pain and misunderstanding. The haunting melody and Barry Gibb's emotive vocals add depth and poignancy to the narrative.
"I Started a Joke" showcases the Bee Gees' ability to blend their harmonious vocals with deep, introspective lyrics. The song's distinctive orchestration, featuring a prominent Mellotron, contributes to its haunting and evocative atmosphere.
Over the years, the song has been covered by numerous artists, including Faith No More and Wallflowers, demonstrating its enduring appeal. Its emotional resonance and thought-provoking lyrics continue to make it a beloved classic in the Bee Gees' extensive discography.

Here is my demo and review of Maton EBG808CL The Performer acoustic electric guitar. This guitar is made in Melbourn, Australia. I recorded the guitar sound using an external microphone and Maton AP5 under saddle pickup and compared the sound produced. You can watch the video and hear the sound of this guitar.
The Maton EBG808CL is a high-quality acoustic guitar made by Maton, an Australian guitar manufacturer known for producing instruments of excellent craftsmanship and tone. Here are some general information about Maton guitars and factors to consider when evaluating the performance of an acoustic guitar.
Maton is highly regarded for producing guitars that are known for their superior build quality and tonal characteristics. The EBG808CL is part of Maton's 808 series, which is known for its comfortable size and versatile sound suitable for various playing styles.
Here are some factors to consider when assessing the performance of any acoustic guitar, including the Maton EBG808CL:
Sound Quality: The tone and projection of the guitar are crucial. Maton guitars are often praised for their warm, balanced, and clear sound. The EBG808CL, being a part of the 808 series, is likely to offer a well-balanced tonal profile with a strong midrange.
Build Quality: Maton is known for its excellent craftsmanship. Pay attention to details like the choice of woods (e.g., spruce top, rosewood back and sides), the quality of the finish, and the overall construction. High-quality materials and construction can contribute to a guitar's longevity and playability.
Playability: The ease of play is vital for a guitar's performance. Consider factors like the action (the height of the strings above the fretboard), neck profile, and fretwork. A comfortable neck and well set-up guitar can make playing more enjoyable.
Electronics : If the EBG808CL is an acoustic-electric model, assess the quality of the onboard electronics and their performance in amplifying the guitar's sound accurately.
Personal Preference: Ultimately, a guitar's performance is subjective and depends on the player's preferences. What sounds and feels great to one person may not be the same for another. It's essential to play the guitar yourself, if possible, to determine if it suits your playing style and preferences.
