I try to figure out the folk stuff that Arlo Guthrie plays in his song Alices Restaurant. At least the people of 40+ should know what I'm talking about This is over and over again the same few bars on acoustic guitar. Can anyone help? I found something on TAB sites but it seems to do not match exactly (or I'm too dump to play it right) Any hint? Roland You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I checked it on Youtube and tried to transcribe it rapidly. I's not exactly that, but think it's close enough. He does use a capo on the 2nd fret... Play the bass with your thumb... This is the repetitive verse part: Here's the Guitar Pro file for that too: Alice__s_Restaurant.gp5 ( 1.78K ) Number of downloads: 117 Let me know if that helps!

I'll try if I can make it work. If you didn't know the song I suppose you don't know the movie "alices Restaurant" either where Arlo Guthrie plays himself joining a hippie group in the sixties. It's alot of fun - don't miss it if you have the chance to watch it. Thanks again Roland You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
