Cosmin Lupu16th July 2012Nice one S-man! Very useful concept, which can be developed later into some great phrases
gregc116th July 2012Love it! When I was young my grandfather got me a Chet Atkins/Mark Knopfler duet album and I've loved Atkins ever since. Style is so happy and laid back.
Sinisa Cekic17th July 2012Sure, I love to listen Mr. Atkins
. As Cosmin said, this is just a basic idea, basic movements, and later comes a harder and more complex things..

Hi GMC!
Welcome to my Travis Picking lesson! Travis picking is a style of playing chords with your thumb acting as the bass player and alternating bass notes while your other fingers fill in the gaps. This is a style that was pioneered by Merle Travis and perfected by Chet Atkins. Although the top Travis picking is based on a more complicated fingerpicking movements, it is filled out by some syncopated rhythms with the other fingers usually on the higher strings of the guitar, in this lesson we will learn the basics of this style of playing.
Guitar : Tom Anderson acoustic model
Equipment : Sonar8 DAW, Amplitube3 gutar plugin
Tempo : 100 bpm
Signature : 4/4
Chord progression : E/A/B7
Techniques : Fingerpicking
