Thanks so much for sharing this! I recently heard someone playing this style & loved it, but like you said, not much info on how to execute it. What a gift!

Thanks! Comments like this are the reason I make these videos! Not everyone interacts so sometimes it makes me wonder if they are helping people.

Love your guitar courses. Thank you for sharing. Im learning this now. 😊

I have been playing Mystery Train lately trying to get that Scotty Moore sound it's great training for building speed! (with thumb pick) Do you think you might cover that song sometime? It sure has a catchy groove.

Love that old Gibson, real history dating back to your Great Grandfather. Maybe he was playing old Carter Family songs?

[@trentporter5419]

Very likely. I have some very, very old recordings of him from the 1940s that are scratched up pretty badly. On them he plays some honky tonk piano and “Don’t Let Your Deal Go Down,” on guitar. Not this guitar though-this one is a 1951.

I have been using the thumb pick more lately, what is your opinion on thumb pick for this style? At first did not like thumb pick but now it seems real natural? Thanks for your posting they are a big help.

I have only used a thumb pick for 3-finger style banjo. I have never been able to use a thumb pick on guitar because I hold a guitar pick “Benson-style”-at a backward angle-and the shape of most thumb picks are for the forward angle. Glad the videos are helping! It’s what keeps me making them!

It's funny how it's harder to play slower than faster (only because you're so used to playing at normal speed). Also, it helps to just watch your right hand to see which fingers are playing what.
