In this guitar lesson, you’ll learn a few country guitar riffs in the style of Charlie Daniels. We’ll also use the chord progressions from “Long Haired Country Boy” by Charlie Daniels to practice some country strumming patterns and chord embellishments. Overall, this is a great lesson for developing that outlaw country sound on acoustic guitar.
Important Note: Everything that we cover in this lesson will be in Drop D Tuning D-A-D-G-B-E.

Drop D and open G are two of my favorite alternate tunings. Thanks for this lesson it’s great!

[@countryguitaronline]

You’re right… this intro doesn’t use the dropped D string, but check out the rest of this lesson at Country Guitar Online and you’ll find all the drop D riffs. Hope to see you over at CGO!

Awesome great music song. Great country song

[@countryguitaronline]

Thanks for watching!

[@biohazard8295]

Was the drop d tuning made popular by country players? I always thought that it was pioneered by metal guys in the late 80s.
I also know that it is used in some classical or flamenco guitar pieces.

[@wolfscreed6664]

Hope you are aware that your beard grew during the lesson. Dont be nervous, it went well.

[@countryguitaronline]

🤣 I didn’t think anybody would notice… i usually record the intro one day and the main lesson next

[@TheCharillz23]

The tabs don't show you even using the low e. Why would you even tune it to drop d?

[@countryguitaronline]

🤣 Please watch the rest of the lesson at Country Guitar Online and the lesson title will make sense.

[@rizzbot7613]

what type of strings do you use

[@countryguitaronline]

I have Woodtone Country Series on in this video… I love the Bluegrass Series too, just depends on the guitar woodtonestrings.com/ country series is lower tension easier to play and bluegrass is mid tension for some extra volume. Hope that helps!

[@kenster007]
