Here's a quick tutorial of the main theme from the classic tune 'Pena' by Eliades Ochoa from his epic recording 'A Una Coqueta' from 1995. 

I didn't really want to do a full tutorial of the tune, but I love this main theme.  I often play it when I'm warming up.

I've included the chords that you are playing over when playing this.

I recorded this while on vacation with my family at a cottage on the beautiful South Shore of Nova Scotia.

For this one I'm tuned to standard C (GCE) and I'm playing my latest Baby Taylor conversion, for more on that click here: http://youtu.be/mv4Xx-k1Hmg

The string gauges I'm using are:
G10/24 C16/16 E11/11

I transcribe all of the songs for my tutorials myself so I don't have the tablature for any of them.

My channel is not monetized, so I do not make money from my videos.  If there are ads running on this video it's  because the content is copyrighted and the owner of that copyright is receiving the revenue from the video views.

The song at the end of the video is the classic tune ‘El Reloj De Pastora’ played by the incredible ‘Septeto Trio Los Dos’ who have graciously given me permission to use.

I make and sell Tres Cubano Conversion Kits for Baby Taylor Guitars.  The kit can be installed in under 30 minutes with no luthier experience required.  They cost $200 (USD) with free shipping worldwide.
You supply the Baby Taylor and I send you everything you need to turn it into a great sounding Cuban Tres.
