To me this one the most beautiul guitar pieces on youtube. I just love the way he plays.

[Ads826]

Robert Bowlin kicks Metallica's ass.

[olddominion394]

This looks like Martin guitar am I correct?

[WilMaring]

@olddominion394 No, this is an old Larson guitar. But it is a little similar in looks to a tripleO martin.

[olddominion394]

@WilMaring Thanks was driving me a little nuts!

[greekflatpicker]

@olddominion394,

It's a Jumbo guitar,a 16" model,vintage Euphonon,made by Larson brothers.It's a mahogany guitar if i'm right.

Robert Bowlin is one of my favorite players.Just amazing!

[bopbopbobert]

So good! Thank you.

[BeauPeap]

Great Pickin'!

[rrossej]

Great playing! Your brother was right. I'm taking his coruses at BRTC. He told me you were a great musician. Really nice playing.

[gummoboy333]

I added 'going down' people check it out!

[777AMAYA]

reminds me of the music they play at california adventures near the redwood tree area......relaxing.

[WOMsteve]

Robert is the master of tone. I've heard all the big boys and he definitely has the touch. A master at work. That...is music!!

[Dracapalley]

Fantastic. Lovely touch; delicate yet authoratative. 5 stars.

[TruegrassBoy]

He sounds a like Norman Blake.

[bopbopbobert]

I was looking for something on Larson guitars & hit the jackpot. Not only the guitar but the player of whom i'd never heard. Later y'all, I've got some listening to do.

[kcs764]

I have long known that Robert was a MASTER of the fiddle, and now I know that he also a master of the guitar. Superb picking!

[WishingOnSunflowers]

beautiful.

[mandohat]

great picker

[5caudillos]

Robert is a great player-he plays like he has nothing to prove. One of the best.

[flatpikinguitar]

this isnt the same as chet atkins version the melody is diffrent

[WilMaring]

This song was written by Robert Bowlin. Two different songs.

[flatpikinguitar]

thanks. i just knew that chet had written a song called maybelle that is a lot diffrent than his. and im not verry familiar with robert bowlin

[WilMaring]

Just google him and his website and MySpace page will load up....you're missing out on a master of flatpicking. Flatpicked with The Osbourne Brothers band. Thanks, wil

[flatpikinguitar]

yeah he's not to bad is he. haha. he has one of those styles that is fairly simple but very tasteful, like james alan shelton.

[adamschmalenberger]

nice guitar.  wonderful tone

[AnchoriteProductions]

Beautifully done! I don't do much flat picking. But, if I did, this is how I would want to do it! :-) 5* -Derek

[Obswalq]

Looks like Steve Carrell!

Excellent playing.

[salcp8s]

I've listened to many many great guitarist here on youtube, but Robert is quickly becoming my all time favorite!! I love his simple, but very melodic style! Thanks.

[ruleta74835]

This is fantastic. Any ideas on how the guitar is tuned? The lowest string is definitely below E.

[WilMaring]

It's tuned in Drop D, which is standard, except you lower the low E down to D.

[greekflatpicker]

Bought your new cd,"Six String Soliloquy".It became one of my all-time favorite acoustic guitar cds.

Thank you,you are an AMAZING player!

Regards from Greece,

Yiannis

[thetinkerer]

again, excellent

[musik102]

When heard a audio clip of this at Cdbaby, I was convinced that Robert was double tracking! I guess I've got to believe my eyes more than my ears!

[nondepouk]

magnifique! quelle dextérité. il joue avec une aisance et une concentration extraordinaires. une vraie leçon. superbe!

thanks HOBOSEAN

[Geetargirl90]

This is so awesome.

[DaveZeman]

Incredible, can't wait to see you in March.

Dave

[mikeberk810]

great tune man. the way you can get the melody out so clearly with all the strumming going on behind is amazing.

michael berk

[RaggedTime]

Now THIS is how flatpicking should sound. He can build a very beautiful melody and, like mentioned in the description, seeks out the emotion in the song and not 'hot picking'.

By they way, does he really use a beveled pick? :p maybe that's why I don't hear any picking noise or too much metal from the high strings...

[rickytoney]

I didn't know Steve Carell of "the office" could play guitar this well!!

I kid, because I care...

Excellent!!

[SherryPM72]

He is a vary talented man, I wish I cold play 1/2 a well.

[cool007boy]

very very good :D excelent!

[tagalong]

Very great. The tempo was just right.

[LeaningBear]

Always great. Hope to play again with you soon. [LB]

[greenlandband]

very cool Robert, Michael Green here. Hope you doing well. Hope we can play together again soon!!!

[thehenryfam]

Another great piece, Robert. Keep up the great work!

[ZaneFairchild]

Great Job Robert. Z. F.

[MrsAtomicUs5000]

5 stars!

[jerryg65]

Such beautiful guitar work , I guess it's appropriate that it's called " MAYBELLE ". That name is kind of fitting for great guitar and country music .

[ruotze]

very nice,....yeah!

[stringtheories25]

awesome!!!

[Ottawarocket]

Amazing guitar player!

Rocket

[SlowStrider]

Hmm I was surprised to see him using a pick instead of fingerstyle after hearing the song for some moments. Great sound, great skill!

[Janzah]

wow. wish he could learn me some skills!

[beckyt33]

"Comment on this video?" <gr> honestly..it doesn't leave anything wanting to be said.

Peace and Good Pickin!
