You'd need at least 3 if you don't want to fret, Tragically Hip tunes usually have a minimum of 3 chords. Just played through Ahead By A Century & Blow At High Dough, those 2 would be tricky for me to play properly with only 2 strings, I use all 4 for those ones! New Orleans I just did with 2 strings, you have to move around the fret board quite a bite more, but it's doable! Here's another gig jem 1 Link to comment

Man that make nice guitars. its funny cos blow at high dough was the song I was thinking of - mainly the verse parts. I was kind of joking in my earlier post but it's pretty close. Music made for bars. That's for sure. back in '97 I was in Perth, Australia. Was at this bar one night as I was due to play a song as a guest in my friends band there. Anyway, the band that was ahead of us was a Trag. Cover band. Lol. The singer/guitarist was Canadian but had the rest of his bandmates all learned up on Canadian content. Was a pretty surreal experience. It was fun being a part of a show with Aussie friends and a fellow Canuck there as well. 1 Link to comment

Patience and always looking are the tips I have for gettin' great guitars. Funnily enough, I bought that Ric in Vancouver after a trip out in which I caught 2 Canucks games (losses, one was the return of Lou against the Coyotes after his long groin injury) in 2009. It was last minute, spur of the moment as the L&M was recently moved and was right beside the bus terminal. I literally bought the bass, and hightailed it to catch the bus for my flight home. The verse & chorus does really only need 1 string (I still use 2), but it's the intro riff that the other 2 strings are needed. I mean, it can be done without them, but it's a pain & doesn't sound as good IMO. What instrument(s) do you play? Next time you're back out here we'll go to a jam, crush a few tunes on stage!
