Thanks for the lesson on this classic. Looking forward to Parts 2 and 3.

Thanks for watching. I’ll put up part 2 in a couple of weeks - gives you guys enough time to get this chunk of the song down

Thanks for the lesson its very helpful and clear. It would be good to hear you play the whole tune together at the start of each lesson. Great guitar playing mate! cheers

[@DavidDelarre]

Thanks for the feedback but I recorded the whole thing in a separate KZbin video - just search my name and Nine Pound Hammer and you’ll find it

Where’s the tab

Is there anyway u can tab tab this for me? I have it half way but it's hard to tell where some strings are pinched together. I have a hard time hearing exactly where to do what with these Travis picking songs. Just learned Mr sandman but it had tabs as well and that really helped. Awesome arrangement and Thanks for your time.

[@DavidDelarre]

Hi Jessica! Glad you enjoyed the video. There’s a free PDF in the description box where you will find TAB and the music for it. Good luck!
