@MRoy1974 yea saw steve(youtube) playin in guelph...thing is i didnt think he was all that original..but great chops for sure...proud to be another canuck infiltrating youtube--after all we got nothing to do BUT practice on the guitar on those long winter month so we BETTER be good!
That was a choppy mess alright...says the satisfied little grin at the end. You just can't come across as being that self-effacing when you play shit like that. I love it!
Nice tutorial. Soon, after (Protect IP), formerly COICA is pased, we will be no longer able to cover the work of another artist. Your teaching vids should be immune from being "blacklisted" by Senate bill 938?Nice job, while tyou can still cover another artist. Laws are pending in the Senate to prohibit cover artists from performing if they don't own the copyright. Once passed, , BLACKLISTING any domain which puts out copyrighted material. Sad day once this happens.
I am in AWE, brother!!! I wandered through here lookin' for some good pickin' and struck GOLD!!! I'm an old Rocker by nature, but regardless of the genre I know talent when I hear it! I keep re-winding for the humbling yet very entertaining experience....
hey uh i just uh wanted say uh hi uh and u just dont uh for gitrr o play uh uh. play the song shut the ferk erp. i dont wanna know i just like guoitar. still luv u burt.
can anyone tell me some bands that use this style of picking? i know a couple songs but im trying to find a country band that uses this style without the slow love songs
hi doug!! I've bee watching your videos, you're wonderful!! I just posted me playin the solo to Brad Paisley's "Huckleberry Jam"--if you have a sec to check it out, would love your feedback! You're the best!! -Sonya
Doug, you named all of the people that heve influenced your style, and I have to say, I think you are as good, if not better, than ALL OF THEM !!!! In all of your videos I only heard you miss one note !!! You are truly one of the finest pickers in the entire world.. To everybody else out there: buy the instructional CD's they will make you alot better, but you will never be as good as this guy is !!!!!!!!!
Doug, My name is Chris Jones. I was the guitarist you met down in Hilton Head this Summer. I just wanted to comment on how amazing your videos are. Keep up the great work.
@CarsonsGuitarLesson probably either Major Pentatonic and Myxolidian. What you need to figure out is the chords and then just play riffs in that chord key. i.e. A G chord then play a G riff. Near I can figure there are about 10 riffs he uses and he just transposes them in each key depending on the chord. Just a guess cause I'm mostly hard rock and metal
I'm more of a rock player, but, I can really appreciate such fine playing and technique as demonstrated here. Plus, I can even appreciate even more, a fine guitar player, such as Doug here, who takes the time to give back to the guitar playing community with some free lessons and video, such as here on youtube, and not just putting stuff up for the sake of selfish showing off...that is a true muscian...thank you...
Thanks Doug I bought your stuff about a year ago and its well worth the $ as i have took chikin pickin to the new levels i wanted to and just getting better daily as i know things now i never thought id ever learn :)
bought one of his videos, and he talked the whole time. boring. spent 30 minutes explaining why practice is important. everybody knows practice is important.
I keep clicking back to the phrase @ 2:05. Sick pickin man.
