ChetAtkins medley - Doyle Dykes

[@bryansmith7758]

dude has an impeccable sense of rhythm.

[@MrMjp58]

This style of music and format of presentation, is probably the most generally entertaining type of guitar playing there is. Especially when executed at this level.

[@terryscott3287]

Always fun to watch. Brought a smile to me today.

[@geralddoyle5131]

Can’t get any better than this guy!

[@altonwilliams7117]

That is a stunningly beautiful Gretsch guitar and great sounding too! Doyle is an amazing guitar player. I see why he wanted to take it home with him.

[@WildPhotoShooter]

Some years ago my dad and I went to a guitar show in Birmingham England at the NEC ( National Exhibition Centre) . We walked into this room and this great guitarist was playing country, I think he was promoting Taylor Guitars. My dad and I just looked at each other and said Wow who is this guy ??? Neither of us had heard of Doyle Dykes at that time but we made sure we knew a lot more about him from that day, our socks were properly blown off !! We wondered why we hadn't known of him before then, but I suppose living in the uk doesn't help.

[@TheBiggerDavo]

I had a similar experience in West Virginia. He was playing for Taylor and I managed to see him twice. Its incredible to be so close to that kind of performance. He's the nicest guy.

[@toddnanney9473]

He’s not a household name in the States either. It’s a shame because he’s every bit as talented as Tommy Emmanuel and all the other CGPs (Certified Guitar Players)

[@rickbullock4331]

The man sure knows his way around a guitar, noth’n to it.😳😮👍👍🇨🇦

[@chirilas5217]

Wow Mr. Dykes, unique. You are the one.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@johnwhite2923]

This guy is a pro & at the top of his craft. You cant compare him to average pickers. I dont think I will ever be in this league, but its fun trying!

[@rooguitar]

he has amazing runs!

[@davedenney968]

literally though! haha

[@j.w.groves7314]

I used a tele for.yrs. and a gibson 330 for a long time but I started on a 67 nashville and during my career I used a 62 tennessean and now that I'm old I play a newer tennessean special I like very much I'm a gretsch man lol

[@dkimcg]

The tag gives the guitar a minnie pearl vibe to me.. :)

[@soundslikeawinner9538]

BuchlaBum .🤣

[@BIgRon2176]

If this one was just hanging on the wall, it won't be set up like the guitars he performs with. That alone would slow it down a bit, but Doyle would sound good playing a Swiffer. Great job Doyle. Big Ron

[@77salad57]

Amazing, just amazing.

[@bobaldo2339]

Gretsch guitars have great necks/fretboards.

[@musicjeffyoung]

You are blessed with the real shit Doyle. Sounds great as usual.

[@gilpit581]

What a frekn great player

[@ezgo11]

Doyle is as amazing as his piers,

[@alphasxsignal]

He is always fun to watch

[@fonkamex]

Those chords are so especial. Same as Django’s chords they have their own life

[@RyneMurray23]

I remember the first time hearing Doyle. What a talent

[@rwlane]

Yes Doyle! You the man. 👌

[@richardnieto1423]

Wonderful pickling

[@stevehales8020]

Just a great guitar player there is no doubt about that!

[@ronaldwhite5887]

Both nice, I’m happy with my P90s.

[@alliecat1941]

They all got it from Merle Travis..and a little bit of Les Paul in the mix.

[@soofitnsexy]

and Django

[@Goldenrod01]

And MOSE RAGER!!!

[@LOLLYPOPPE]

Everything goes back to the first guitar player ever

[@thewatchman6074]

That man has potential with a bit of tuition....haha..Seriously though, why is this man not up there with Richard Smith and Tommy Emanuel? He's brilliant.

[@thendrjazz]

Actually Doyle is right up there with Tommy and Richard. You can find 2 or all 3 of them together in several youtube videos

[@jrenner325]

Avalon knocked me out!

[@bjrnmgranvang1107]

Great touch

[@irishguy13]

Three grand? Not unless it comes with personal lessons with Doyle.

[@inimusikjusdi]

Mantap👍

[@attentiondeficitsquirrel7660]

Nice Falcon!

[@eugeneonion]

played 2 songs at once at 00:19

[@3melendr592]

Burning up that fret board!

[@toddm.galbrecht9848]

I learned to play like Chet by playing along with his records.

[@The1stMrJohn]

😀👍👏

[@jeffreygranger6913]

Good pickin'!

[@佐藤智英-h1u]

suprise!!!!

[@19tractor52]

Gretsch G6136TBK? mmmhmmmmm

[@teunio501]

This guitar doesn't respond as fast like his guild on those fast liks. The Gretsch do is a great guitar, a true classic hall of famer among the electric guitars

[@donbrown3568]

These "guitar greats, are great"...but if you watch their "facial expressions"...well.. I've always wondered why,... they seemed so much in pain ??.. I have played guitar all my life, & have never experienced that much pain...maybe I should try it...as it may improve my...??? sound ??? Just wondering...??? ...LOL

[@Khorney]

I'm guessing its because of 2 reasons. A) They "feel" the music, so its not really pain, and B) The shit they play can be difficult.

[@joe1969812]

Never touched Chet.

[@soofitnsexy]

no one will.....

[@1DaTJo]

Chet was on a level all his own. ❤️

[@arthurcollins9578]

[@johnmcdonald3272]

Does this guy ever play a song all the way thru. They all sound the same.
