Learn Nashville Picking Guitar Solos: Merle Travis, Jerry Reed & Chet Atkins Style - Grossman Guitar Workshop for Country & Fingerstyle Players

If you're serious about learning to play guitar in the styles of Chet Atkins, Merle Travis, Jerry Reed or Tommy Emmanuel, this is a great place to start. The late Marcel Dadi, an extraordinary French guitarist, very clearly and patiently documents his detailed knowledge of thumbpicking in these DVDs. It's obvious Marcel was a person who loved to learn, and he was kind enough to share his experience with us. His demeanor throughout is charming, humble and sincere, his English is very good with a slight French accent and the instructions are precise and very easy to follow. That doesn't mean you'll be able to play all of the songs right away, though - the material ranges from just above beginner's level to REEEALLY hard. Almost every song contains some snag that will keep you practicing and improving for months. The only downside to this DVD is that you'll probably wear it out before you're done learning from it.This is a very good video but the production is quality is terrible and it is definitely not for beginners. You have to have a lot of experience before starting to attempt this! He doesn't explain things slowly enough for most beginners.Awesome
