Do you have the tab for this?

[glassslide]

That was incredibly clean---sounded awesome---killer tone.

super playing : )

Thanks for your kind comment.

[cwsgershwin]

You know I am a huge fan. When you say you record direct, with a hint of reverb and delay, does that mean you are going straight into your interface, and on to your computer? No amp modeling software? Thanks again, your playing is inspirational.

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Yes, I record direct, no amp modeling. I really appreciate your watching,

All the best

[rbaker105]

I was lead guitarist for Charley Pride for 11 years (1975 - 1986) I've never heard that song playing so perfectly! Thanks for sharing

[BoeckmannLudwig]

[55Records]

to be honest im not into country music, or guitars or all that stuff but let me tell u something man, thats pure talent, it must be nice have a talent so great like yours,...

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Thanks for the kind words.

Martin

[lmgpharm]

Thank you for posting! It's very inspirational to see your talent!!

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Thanks for your kind comment.

Martin

[SotR59]

Are you playing through an amp? If so what kind. And are you mic'ing or going direct.

I had a White Falcon and never could find a tone I liked on it. I wish I had kept it now though because I recently bought a vintange Fender Bassman amp that is making all of my guitars sound great. And I really like the sound of your [Tennesee Rose?] Which is pretty much the same guitar.

[BoeckmannLudwig]

I go direct with a small amount of reverb and delay. The guitar is a Gretsch G6122-1959 Country Gentleman.

Martin

[SotR59]

@BoeckmannLudwig

thanks for the info. Upon viewing the full size image I realized there is no rose on the pick gaurd. The CG is a great guitar as well.

[goldrb6]

Good stuff! Are you using thumb index to single string?

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Yes, I use thumb and index. Thanks for watching and your kind comment.

Martin

[calmat78]

I love that lick you and chet put in at 54 seconds on this song.I think it ends at 102.I play guitar but not finger style.I just envy you so much and the work you must put in to be able to play as masterfully as you do

calmat

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Many thanks, buddy.

Martin

[daffydoug]

Martin where do you lean your Chet arrangements? Do you pick them up by ear, or do you have accessoto tabs and sheet music?

[BoeckmannLudwig]

I've learned most tunes by ear many years ago. Today there are many good tabs out. I really appreciate your watching, many thanks.

Martin

[mrfreetv]

I'm jealous friend. I always have trouble playing that one with Chet's left hand technique. My left hand always locks up when playing that one. Great job.

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Don`t give up, buddy. Thanks for your kind comment. I really appreciate your watching.

Martin

[starbright857]

[skier7711]

Dear Martin, i am an aspiring guitarist (2 years so far) and ive branched off of the true music reading, and im currently just reading tabs, if i hope to play like this some day, do u think that this transfer matters alot, or do u think that it isnt a big deal

-Dave

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Hello Dave,

tabs are an easy way to read music and play guitar. I think it`s always helpful, if you can read true music, too.

Good luck, buddy.

Martin

[emeraldhearts5698]

I can play this on my guitar, but not as good as you can!! ^^

Best regards

Martin

[fridrikur]

This is one of my alltime favourites. Hank Garland was a fanastic guitar player. You played it very well allthough this is not a fingerpicking piece but a flatpicking, but it doesn't matter. The music comes first. I will add this to my favourites too.

[BoeckmannLudwig]

Thanks, my friend - I`m glad about that.

All the best

Martin

[chet1952]

Ooh! Yeaay! this one will go in my favorite!

I love it!
