How to Play “Midnight Rambler” by the Rolling Stones on Cigar Box Guitar


My latest lesson is a blues burner, the classic “Midnight Rambler” by The Rolling Stones. You’ll need a fretted, four-string cigar box guitar and a guitar capo for this.


Tuning: GDGB (low to high) and then capo’d at the 4th fret, making the guitar Open B tuning (B F# B E (low to high). This sounds best if you use a pick. Good luck!
