    Nicely done and presented..just can't get enough of the "church of reverb" surf style!

    Oh yes. The early Ventures! I practiced this on relentlessly in the early '60's. Took me forever to play the fast stuff!
    Thanks Tom! Perfectly as recorded back then.

    This was a single back in 1964 by the Dakotas, Billy J Kramers back up band...did pretty good on British top 40.......

      Serious top tier guitar instrumental ! The Dakotas version sounds really fast, almost sounds like a 12 String sound and for it to be a British record it couldn't sound more surf American.

    If you want to hear the Original version it was played and written Mike Maxfield of The Dakotas, Nokie Edwards couldn't play the fast part so he changed it !!!

    Boy, am I glad I stumbled upon this instructional video. I’m playing rhythm guitar next Sunday for a gig with Drifting Sand and this tune is on our set list.
    By the way, Drifting Sand will also be performing their new hit Best Summer Ever (which features guest vocals on the chorus by Beach Boys founding member Al Jardine).

    Hey Tom, I've always wondered what combination of string gauge and pick size you use, especially for fast songs like this one. Or does it not matter?

      10-46 gauge strings, Ernie Ball usually and 1.0 mm pick

    Hey Tom, I've been learning a lot of songs from your channel the past couple months. Currently working on Paint It Black (such a cool arrangement). I was looking for a Patreon page for you. If you don't have one, I recommend getting one so us grateful guitarists with some disposable income can kick back to you. Your teaching is valuable!
