Mister Sandman - Chet Atkins

Mister Sandman, in the version of the great Chet Atkins. This tune was recorded in the early 1950's and might seem a bit tamer than some of the more modern fingerstyle tunes, but those chords will still give you quite a workout!

Привет, Тим! Большое спасибо тебе за твои старания! Благодаря твоим урокам, моя мечта сбывается, я потихонечку учусь играть на гитаре!!! Будь здоров, дружище!

[@TimVanRoy]

Рад слышать! Продолжайте практиковаться, и кто знает, может быть, однажды я смогу посетить вашу страну со своей гитарой за спиной! (Google translate 😎)

[@Dm.ReZnikoV]

@@TimVanRoy Тим, это хорошая идея! Вам очень понравится на чудесная страна!

[@jorga78]

Tooooooooooooop!

[@TimVanRoy]

Grazie Giorgio!

[@josezubiriasicre6670]

👏👏👏👏

[@Newpr3toria]

I have been waiting such a video for a long time. Nice! The sound of your thumbpick appears to me especially crisp. What kind of pick did you use?

[@TimVanRoy]

It's just a standard Dunlop one, but with camouflage colours (I can't even remember where or when I bought it)!

[@Bmxmusikian]

Mann that looks tricky

[@slithereencrush7370]

very nice sir, your windy and warm tutorial helped me a lot! anyways sir does mayson ships guitar to the philippines? i really want that ms7/s

[@TimVanRoy]

No idea if Mayson has a dealer in the Philippines! It's a Chinese company so I would expect them to have a stronger presence in Asia than in Europe, but of course I'm no expert on your region...

[@jose35197]

Maestro Tin Van Roy, consulta, tiene el tutorial de Cherokee versión Chet Atkins.????? Gracias si lo puedes subir 😉 👍

[@demispawlik2331]

Hey Tim. Great great Videos. Do you have any starter Songs to learn? I already mastered freight train and windy and warm. So this Level ist okay for me. :)

[@joeentwistle9258]

that was fantastic. when you practice with a metrenome do you match the tempo with your travispicking or not?

[@TimVanRoy]

A metronome is key in this style! I do try to keep the "click" on each bass note, but in this case that might be a bit frantic as you would have to put the metronome around 200 - 240 bpm. So go for 100 - 120 and play two bass notes per click!

[@kaield4763]

Judging by the right hand it looks not too difficult, but the left hand speaks for itself

[@TimVanRoy]

But there are alternative fingerings for each of those insane stretches!

[@Theonlyshaun]

I’ve been working on this over the last few days… but I’ve got such a long way to go :/

[@TimVanRoy]

There is some help on the way then, I'll show you a few alternatives to the really difficult bits in the first part of the tutorial!

[@mineinspiron]

Please share tutorial of popular song. Real song with voice line not lullaby. Alip played buried alive cover of avenged sevenfold like a hurricane. Im happy if someone else can teach how to play like him.

[@chielichiel]

Very nice! You are an amazing player/teacher. One question, should the percussion of the bass be that loud?

[@TimVanRoy]

Ah, that might be a mixing issue. Because I'm using two mics some phasing happens and certain frequencies jump out all of a sudden. I'll keep an eye on it for the next few songs...

[@moviride990]

😂👌

[@10995]

I know that Chet atkins worked with my favorite singer Roy Orbison on numerous occasions, so i would like to ask you to do a handful of roy orbison songs, because a number of those songs can be done on piano, but i would love to hear your version on acoustic guitar. This song for instance, i remember i requested this song from this artist and he played it over a year after i did. kzbin.info/www/bejne/epXLpZiNgpxlisU but otherwise, You can choose which ones.

[@TimVanRoy]

Thanks for the suggestion! There is so much music left to cover, and it's the only thing that sometimes makes me panic: what to pick next...

[@terrymoran3334]

Somebody practiced and pracriced .......
