Brilliant fingerpicking, so clean, so near, without missing even a quarter beat ... fantastic

Wow…interested in Travis but when you played your first song….now I’m fascinated. You have me!

Thanks Scott!

I've been playing for years but my finger fucking sucks so been trying to learn some Travis picking style tunes. This is a great help to get started, many thanks!

These are great. I think I’m becoming a guitar player! Thanks Chris for helping me get better. Time to purchase your full courses. I’ve been learning some great songs from different places but I’ve been lacking direction.

Thanks a lot Josh, if I've managed to help you out in any way musically then I'm very pleased

Thanks Chris, that was very informative, I found quite a few places where I just didn’t have it correct. Great lessons. 👍👍

These are great! Please, please consider doing a tutorial for James Taylor's "Carolina in my Mind." Your lessons and tabs are top notch, and this song needs a good lesson!

Thanks Sarah, yeah that's a great song, I should really do it at some point

Inspiring to just watch you play. What's the guitar model, a triple 0?

thanks mate!

Thank you very much! Just head over to the site (link in description) if you would like to dive more into my stuff. Cheers

Hi Chris, this is only the second video of yours I've watched, (the first being 'Is there anybody out there' after which I immediately subscribed) but as feed back, In 'Is there anybody....' u included a chord box in the top right corner, which I found really helpful (looking at your fingers it's very difficult to see if a finger, ie the pinky, is pressing down on a string or not!) so was wondering how much more of a hassle it is to include the chord box again? forgive me if you've already addressed this. It won't make any difference (I'll still stay as a sub 😁) just thought I'd mention it in the hope that other's, like me, found it really helpful as a "visual learner" Anyhoo, love your style of teaching and look forward to catching up with your back catalogue👍👍

Easy? Four months in and I'm still struggling and I'm practising every day. It may be easy for some or easy once you have attained it but from scratch easy it is not.

Use the settings wheel on the video to reduce speed to 0.75, 0.5 or even 0.25. That's what most of us do.

That isn't really Travis picking. Travis just used the thumb and index.

travis picking doesn't mean picking exactly like merle travis. its a playing style that is defined by keeping a beat with base notes using your thumb, and at the same time using your other fingers (most commonly index and/or middle fingers. sometimes even ring) to play treble notes in a syncopated rhythm. its a style that existed long before merle travis was born; he didn't invent nor define it. its just the colloquial name for the technique because he used it a lot.
