How to play a simple Chet Atkins finger picking tune called TRAMBONE

This is a little tune called Trambone that came from Chet Atkins Workshop album. It's an entry level finger picking tune. I hope it's helpful. Playing a 1951 Gibson ES-350.

Negative attitudes are whats wrong with this country. A guy trys to help out and you put him down, that is so ignorant I don't know where to begin...I'm going to take a shot at uploading some Thumbpickin' so come and harp on my play and guitar too..lol

@dustinbironworker Thanks for your support. I have to admit, I was shocked by this guy's comment. He's a good player, but surely wasn't born that way. The comment on my guitar, which is a great instrument, was just unnecessary.

@dustinbironworker It's true, and I see nothing to complain about here.

You should see my bad playing, but I am quite a beginner.

I'm going to order one of those thumb picks and give this a try, lol.

Mark Garrison(aka TheMtneer56) may play a Gretsch but he's no country gentleman and a decent picker but really a one trick pony. Thank you for the quick and very effective tutorial rockabilly88. It's illustrating skill and harmony like your's that encourages other's to practice and enjoy. Well done and you just made me a ES-350 fan!!!

@TheMtneer56 Nice videos you have there. Oh, you don't have any. So until you upload some that prove you're the guitar wizard who can go around spouting crap like this on a guy's video that's just trying to help, donate yourself to stem cell research.

@TheMtneer56 hey, at least he's trying to help people learn! And as far as his guitar goes, guitar is a matter of personal preference. That may be his favorite guitar. If your just going to say something bad, don't say it at all.

[TheMtneer56]

First of all, there is no such thing as entry level of Chet's pickin'. You are NOT even close. And second, that guitar would make a nice fire. What the hell is wrong with you people?

I'll bet that Gibson 350 is worth a boxcar load of money today. I once had a new 1959 Gibson Super 400CES during my AF time in Hawaii, and kept it about five years. Got out of the AF at Edwards AFB, and later sold my 400 for $420 in 1965, Jobs were hard to find then, too!!!! Today that guitar (with no scratches) is worth no less than $35,000, Wish I had it now.
