Sounds like me watching the breakdown of Big Love on acoustic by Lindsay Buckingham. I went from "is that all he''s doing?" to "I am so bad on guitar" in under a minute.
Heard her play this past May in Asheville, NC. It’s an amazing experience to watch her play! It’s like she has super powers. And such a sweet, humble person!
Molly Tuttle, probably one of the most talented people on this planet. What she does on her guitar is absolutely jaw dropping! Thanks a lot for sharing this video. Please stay all healthy. God bless!
She is an *extraordinary* talent (and by talent, I mean of course that she put in tons of work and practice to become who she is). Check out this video of her if you want to hear something else amazing!!! ruclips.net/video/awFeDMNiKX4/видео.html
I'd never heard of that style of guitar playing before, which is amazing being that it's a logical extension of a well known banjo style. And it suits Molly's open and less rigid virtuosity. Cool video.
Love this. She's always been a highly regarded player imo. Love that she got insight into this. Its basically the bass note at the last note before starting all over agsin.
Saw her band a bit over a year ago in Baraboo, Wisconsin for $20! My wife, son, daughter and son-in-law all had fifth row seats. We knew she was an up-and-coming star, and that she would eventually become a household name, at least in bluegrass circles. What a great concert it was. She's an amazing guitarist and rivals Alison Krauss with her angelic voice.
Still awesome! I picked up claw hammer banjo over the past year, and am much more of a roots guitar player. This is a very cool style with lots of possibilities. My advice (I didn’t come up with this): any time your lost in the pattern (typically bum ditty, but there’s more comin’!), just slow it down to a crawl (even 60-70 bpm) and regain your control, then slowly work it back up to your target. Many patterns sound like nothing until you get it going faster. Then it magically reveals its nature. Real magic!! It’s a fantastic moment of victory! A metronome is your friend.
I felt in love with Molly Tuttle's music one year ago, i highly recommend this first (and only) album "when you're ready" and the ep " rise ". Just great songs, great vocal, great guitar, great arrangement. Traditional and fresh at the same time. And of course an amazing guitar player ... !!! By the way this technique is really interesting, let's work now.
I like the style when you tune to open D and capo up to G. Then end your “bum-dity” with index finger up pick on 1st string instead of a thumb note. The 1st string becomes the short/high G string on a banjo and strings 2-5 are tuned open G similar to a banjo. From there you can change 2-4 to any banjo tuning you like.
Thank you Molly ! Who says an old guy learning by ear and a prayer during Covid lockdown can't learn a new trick ! Wow I think I'm getting it !...while also freeing up my trouble strumming.Can't thank you enough for sharing your awesome skills. Mike in Marblehead
IamGulzow I’ve followed Molly for over 10 years... she has always been totally amazing, no matter what she does. Downloaded and saved all her videos... and brothers, Dad and AJ. are incredible as well. Look up all her stuff... you won’t be sorry! She’s written some good stuff as well.
Awesome ,ive been playing clawhammer banjo but a guitar is lying in the corner, now i can use it too. i suspected all along it could work ,i wish Molly lived next door so i could direct my practise time efficiently .here in west aus don't even have a banjo teacher ,but I still enjoy the noises i produce playing a bit each day. Thank you Molly, such an inspiration.

FANTSTIC!!....as a resident of Appalachia, and forever hearing these songs, and the claw hammer technique (grampa called it 'holler strummin'..." its great to see you teaching this.....unfortunately I didn't have enough sense or patience to learn all my people had to teach before they were all gone....I didn't start playing until last year and I'm 47...lol....better late than never.....i wish I would have sat with "paw-paw" as we all called him, and learned all he knew as far as musical instruments went....he could play anything ....literally.....he would throw his fiddle to his wife (ga-ga) and she would throw him his trusty hand saw (which as a Carpenter was always razor sharp) he would then substitute the fiddle with the saw, bending the blade he held in between thumb and fingers, holding the handle with his foot, he would stoke the fiddle bow on the opposite side of the teeth of the saw, making a beautiful haunting sound, one he could nurse the melody from any song he chose, sometimes only hearing once.....that generation....they as a group are indescribable in their resilience and patience.....genuine treasures...i miss him....thank you for recalling those memories for me....
I started doing this accidentally on guitar after starting on banjo last year. I thought it was "wrong" but sometimes I still bang out notes with the back of my fingernail anyway without thinking when I'm playing guitar. I never thought of retuning for it. Thanks for the lesson! :)
I recall playing with a similar technique years ago, just doing a sort of fingers-only strum on the guitar. Now that I’m learning to play clawhammer banjo… I’ll have to give this a try….
Started playing guitar because of Mark Knopfler. Started of with a plectrum, because of my guitar teacher made me. Said it was better to play guitar with a pick. But never could get the Dire Straits stuff right with a plectrum. So threw the plectrum away and soon I was a happy man with the Mark Knopfler styleclaw hammer technique.
Not the same, but a lot like Mother Maybelle Carter's style. She was amazing. I love to show her playing style to my son. A great teaching tool to up and coming players. This was really good too, I will show this vid to him, he will love it
Molly did 5 riffs for G P about 9 months ago.. The middle one was on claw hammer.... The mountain tuning is beautiful and I STILL can't get it!!! Nothing wrong with a challenge! Keep on plucking Miss Tuttle! X
this is so freakin cool! i had heard of clawhammer, but thought it was just the way some people pluck the strings when playing a rolling fingerstyle. life changing. thank u MOLLY! learned about a new tuning too.
Mike, there's a different style that Europeans call clawhammer that's more like Travis picking. I think Mark Knopfler has a RUclips video demonstrating that technique.
4 and a half minutes of "I can do that!" followed by 30 seconds of crushing return to reality.
You read my mind
Haha, sometimes I can forget just how good she actually is.
It never lasts too long though.
Must. Go. Slow. Uhhh. Slower. Slower. Ah!
I'm thinking the big red "S" is hidden behind the guitar body.. LOL!!

How about she's our new favorite super hero, okay? 😃

Wow, her voice sounded so beautiful in unison with the guitar part.
I really like the sound of that tuning.
I was very impressed by her singing, too.

Most beautiful, most talented, most interesting artist currently on the scene.
This is the best clawhammer explained quickly and shortly
You made it look easy. I had never heard of clawhammer style but it sounded amazing when I heard you play. Thanks
Watch Andy Griffith. It's what Sheriff Andy Taylor plays all the time!

She's NOT a musician
Brandon Van Delden - What do you mean? She’s a phenomenal musician
@MegaStick93 anybody defending a female holding a guitar IS ALSO A FEMALE. That's you.
I started playing banjo a week ago I love you so much 😊
As a old-time banjo player I love this!

Such a great technique/style, and Molly is a master who makes it sound effortless.
Love this. She's always been a highly regarded player imo. Love that she got insight into this. Its basically the bass note at the last note before starting all over agsin.
Molly is so incredibly talented and a truly good soul through and through.
Good to hear good folk saying good things about other good folk.
Really interesting. I just like Molly's delivery too; not complicated and not showy.
Especially for how great a player she is too. Check out white freightliner blues that she covered.
Been following Molly for a while. I HIGHLY suggest you search for her flatpicking videos. Trust.
I remember first seeing her in a video about her getting a new guitar. She's superb!
Saw her band a bit over a year ago in Baraboo, Wisconsin for $20! My wife, son, daughter and son-in-law all had fifth row seats. We knew she was an up-and-coming star, and that she would eventually become a household name, at least in bluegrass circles. What a great concert it was. She's an amazing guitarist and rivals Alison Krauss with her angelic voice.
Stephen Stills uses this technique as well. He was my main inspiration to learn acoustic blues and bluegrass.
The minute she started playing full on, I thought of "Black Queen!"
@@kurthallsman I was thinking of Toe the Line or Word Game when she started playing.
Neil Young too, like on "Captain Kennedy" for instance.
Yes,Stephen Stills ⚡️👍
Thanks Molly,
Thanks Guitar World...
Im glad to have a sweet teacher like you
Thanks GW, and thanks MT! I loved it
I love Molly, she’s amazing! So happy to see lessons from her. Thanks!!!
Awesome, a Molly Tuttle lesson. Rich!
Molly is incredible! Dig it!
matthew white... Always!
"Merciless" groove!! This will keep me busy for a while.. Thank you Molly!
My Dad always used to talk about clawhammer, and he used to be able to do it, too. Now I finally understand what it is!
Molly rocks......such a talented, classy person.........well done🇦🇺
Eric Messer... Yep!!
Molly is awesome, love this claw hammer style
I was looking for Molly Tuttle guitar lessons and found this!! Exactly what I was looking for
I love Molly !!! Please do more lessons with her

In 2019 she released another album
I’ve followed her for over 10 years.... amazing talent!... but so are her Dad and brothers.
Congratulations, you took me from "hey, I could learn this" all the way to "aw, forget it", in less than 5 minutes!
Jep same here 😂
Yeah way too fast.
me too ... :-)
It’s doable... just takes “stick-att’em-ness”!!! 😁

The 1st string becomes the short/high G string on a banjo and strings 2-5 are tuned open G similar to a banjo. From there you can change 2-4 to any banjo tuning you like.
She is so ridiculously good
Well presented. I believe it is the best I have seen Clawhammer explained and demonstrated.
Never heard of this before. Thanks for educating us.
Neat. Good teaching style from Molly.
One of the BEST pickers I've ever seen. Saw her first on the picking channel: Troy Grady.
Thank you for my first introduction to the Claw Hammer method. I will be working on it!
Excellent, excellent playing! Great job!
I love that technique. I want to explore it further. Thank you for the lesson.
Definitely need more lessons by Molly. One of my favorite guitarists & musicians out there now. I would kill to play 1/1000000th of that :D
Awesome! :D I've heard that kind of sound so many times before but had no idea how they did it; this was very helpful

Great guitarist, great teacher
Thanks! from Central America, Guatemala City!!
JUSTIFIED! I'm hooked! Will try!
Your explanation is fantastic! Anyone who can pick at all can add this to their arsenal.
Thanks Molly, great lesson.
Wow, that sounds great. I had never even heard of claw hammer before. Thanks Molly!

PS: the noise gate is really intense
I saw the poster but not the gate.
The gate was driving me insane
I cant stand the gate lol... makes me kinda feel sick
OIP 1, please define a "noise gate". Don't know what you mean. Thanks.

Such a great player.
Wow! What a great acoustic tone that guitar had.
Robert Pickacard... it’s a Martin, of course... 🤪

So cool! Love this clawhammer style
