    The only instructor more interesting in teaching than showing off his chops. Thanks for these videos. I love the country also.

    I'm 63..and you are quite the talent. Thanks for the tips and perfect finger look.
    Sometimes its hard to see fingers in other vids. And your taking time for this deserves a tip of the hat. Thanks again. .

    I tried this Rockabilly picking a few years ago but with no success, now I think due to a less than great tutorial, as after watching this I am now semi-fluent within an hour thanks to your excellent tutorial!
    I just found your channel, seems we share an appreciation of punk/new wave and country, a bit of a weird combination. I'll be working my way through your vids.
    Cheers buddy.

  • @therealsi-b1141

    Nice Lesson. In 72 I was learning this from Chet Atkin records..an older gentleman helped me. Mom got me some Chet Atkin learning material.. At first, all I had was a Sears Silvertone archtop accoustic 🎸. .Developed calluses with it.
    I learned one of Chets showpiece thumb picking songs. Can't remember the name. I was watching a Music award show..i saw Chet Atkins come out..and thought he would do some real show stoppers.. He did the one I knew..I thought people really need to hear the amazing things you do.. I learned years later that he was the vice president of a little ole record company. RCA.(Radio Corporation of America..
    A style like this requires. accuracy. I've noticed.keeping the fingernail well trimmed fretting hand is definite plus. I personally like to let the picking finger grow. You can play with out a pick or with a pick. Just a little trimming..for standard neatness. Also you can peel oranges with that etc Orangeja glad I included this.

  • @grayaj23

    This is *exactly* what I was looking for. I pretty much have clown fingers that take a very long time to "learn", and you've broken rockabilly down into a beat-for-beat template that I can add layers to as I practice (every day).
    Thank you for remembering that there's always someone out there who needs to see step-by-step how to achieve the sound they want.

  • @mikewaddell8902
    @mikewaddell8902 3 года назад +6

    This guy is a very good player of many styles.

    • @jmflyer55
      @jmflyer55 3 года назад +1

      This guy like many others, especially classically trained musicians, cannot play Rock a Billy and a few other styles.
      The reason is, these guys are focused on notes, and counting. And the trouble is, RockaBilly can't be properly written in any time signature. Hes countinh a 2/4 time, but Rockabilly is not 2/4 time.
      So, while he may play the right NOTES, he's missing the feel that makes Rockabilly sound like rockabilly!!
      To learn Rockabilly correctly, tou need to LISTEN to the music being played. NOT by a "teacher" but by someone who plays it. Listen to some of the greats old the 50's, 60's etc.. Listen and listen more, until you can feel the music, and feel the groove its supposes to have.
      Because its ALL about the groove and feel. NOTES are secondary. Tou can play all the eight notes, and the best youll ever sound, is like this guy at the 21:40 mark when he "lets it rip"... While that may sound nice, thats NOT RockaBilly. Its a standard blues, country progression in 2/4 time.
      RockaBilly came out of the 40's Big Band music (guitar), it also comes from 1940's western swing music, which is a very close sound to RockaBilly, just a bit more refined, polished and complex....
      BUT, if you remember anything at all from this, let it be this: RockaBilly music is all about the feel, swing and groove of the music. 3 things you MUST know so well, you dont have to wven think about them when playing. And while I think this teacher here, is a good guitarist in general, he has NONE of the three things mentioned. He plays notes. Rockabilly is about playing the music in a way that it has that swing, groove it MUST have, or its simply not rockabilly! Its just a country blues progression in 2/4 time.
      I hope all this makes aense to the person who's really trying to develop their rockabilly sound but is stuck. Following a lesson like this leads you in the wrong direction. Again, I don't say that to criticize this guy, I personally think he's a great guitarist. He just cant play rockabilly. And hell, as a guitarist myself, theres styles I just stay away from. And thats because I CAN'T play them properly.
      And as to this new school of thought, put forth by Gen Z'ers and Millennials who claim
      "There is no right & wrong way in music, its art, so however I CHOOSE to play it, IS correct"....
      How many times have I heard that, from a 15 year old saying he's going to play Hendrix Purple Haze, BUT "He's gonna play it HIS way, so the notes that are wrong, (oops, I mean different than Jimi's notes) are played "wrong" on purpose, because thats how he plays it".... 🙄.

    You're an excellent teacher. Me, open chord guitar blues but mostly baritone ukulele. Watching the chords, it's like I/IV/V but jazzed up in standard tuning. I've never attempted this style. Don't own a Tele (just a Strat), but I'll be working on this with a thumb pick tomorrow. Thanks!
