Do you know that Christianity is correct? The world around us reveals that G-d DOES exist, and the historical evidence reveals that Jesus Christ really did come to this earth and there is overwhelming evidence that Jesus Christ really did physically rise from the dead. Jesus is coming again and the signs of the end times that were foretold in the Bible are coming to pass.

Many thanks for this lesson, it helps me a lot. Your website is really great, I will looking for often

With all respect I think you got it all wrong. thumb works in 8 not in 4 notes
watch Mr Chet Atkins himself.
I think your video is very misguiding.
Chek Chet Atkins 1958

This is an excellent lesson. Thank you!

that wxrt tshirt might be older than your 335!

wait wait wait i came here to learn mr sandman WTFFFFFFFFFF

i own a es335 that i purchased new in 1968. i play a tele now. put my gibson in my rifle safe.

@acountrygent You are absolutely correct. This lesson is actually “how to simulate chet’s style.” Chet’s thumb would in fact be moving twice as fast.

@skiingguitarist Hilarious! 

is that a gibson es355 reissue?

gr8 lesson. Could u pls help me to decide which effect to use for this type of pickin. Especially to make it sound like classical guitar. I’m using zoom g 2.1u

Hey great tutorial! I’m going to explore all your other ones now that was superb! An hour ago I thought this kind of picking was way beyond me, now I have still a long way to go but can begin to do it very slowly! Cheers!

nice


wow, was much easier once you broke it down. The rhythm was absolutely no problem for me to pick up either.

Hi mate, hope you know you teaching skills are incredibly clear and precise. You are a great guitarist but an excellent teacher.

@JacCEck Hey Jack – thank you so much for the donation! I really appreciate it. Also thanks for the kind words as well. I try really hard to take something complicated like learning to play a guitar solo or fingerstyle and make it as simple as I can – because so much of it is psychological you know. I have such a love for the guitar and want to do everything I can to keep this art form alive!

Hi, I liked your website and your lessons a lot. You are very logical and simple in you instructions and being an accomplished guitarist myself I find it very refreshing to find a guy like you on line to help others with ideas and inspiration. Thanks for that. I left you a small donation for your effort and I hope that anyone using you website will do the same. You deserve it. Regards, Jac.

Fantastic lesson man, got me started with this style of playing really well. Cheers!

What an amazing lesson,Helped me out alot to narrow it down sections and parts.
Great lesson,thx.

Question: If Chet or Tommy Emmanuel were playing this, would they use the thumb to pick the 4th string also, rather than index? As someone just starting this, trying to get into a good habit, or does it really matter? Thanks

probably the best tutorial i’ve seen on here. It includes a visual as well as frozen frames containing the chord.

really good… nice homage.

The best tutorial I’ve found for this style. Very detailed and easy to pick up.
Thank you so much.
