Transcribed Buddy Charleton's pedal steel guitar part for 6 string guitar! Some really cool Bakersfield meets Texas playing on this tune! Have been thinking a lot about Ernest Tubb this week after hearing the news they were closing up his record shop in the spring. Half of my music collection came from that place, not sure were else you could go in person and shop for pedal steel, dobro ,guitar etc.. instrumental country music. I know I plan on sharing all the cool stuff I found there.

Arranged Buddy's Pedal Steel guitar part for the regular 6 string. Tried my best to get it note for note, it's my favorite from his "Steel Guitar Jazz" record! Read somewhere that Buddy hated everything about that record, his tone, his playing and the band lol. I think he's wrong, it's great! This tune is a greasy 3/4 time groove with a really catchy head and a beautifully improvised solo from Buddy. In particular there are some really great  ii -V licks to pick up on. Hope you can take something from it!

By request I transcribed Hank Garland's "Seventh and Union". Has a quirky head and some pretty unusual phrasing throughout.

Here's another transcription by way of request, Speedy West & Jimmy Bryant's "Fretting' Fingers". Decided to play through it at a reasonable tempo so it's more friendly to learn and play. Wrote out both the Root & 3rd, got some feed back recently that some folks would rather learn the harmony instead of me playing it and leaving it in backing tack. Any feedback is much appreciated! Leave a comment below or shoot me an email, always looking to improve things on my end!

Transcribed Hank Garland's "Hank's Dream" by request! One of my favorite tunes! It even inspired a tune I wrote called "Bullseye" by The Shootouts. Check it out if you have a minute!  The tune has simple harmony, just a I, IV, I, ii, V, I. progression, almost a simple blues. It has an A and B section that repeats itself a handful of times. What makes it special in my humble opinion is the treatment of the the IV chord! It has a A7(9) sound, just that one chord makes the tune feel like a hybrid Country, Jazz, Blues all in one. Hank was best and studying his tunes will always pay off! Hope you were able to take something from the vid, If you learned anything or just liked the video please like & subscribe!

By way of request a transcription of Les Paul's "Nola"! Tried my best to make a gimmick free arrangement of the tune. Decided to track a pedal steel and mandolin to replace some of the sped up guitar tracks. It's a tricky tune to play, very articulate & syncopated it's tuff to play up to speed. Also of note the A section has an interesting progression I - II -V, with a great repeating arpeggio pattern! Hope you were able to take something from it, thanks for watching!

It's one of my favorites from his " jazz winds from a new direction" rerecord. It's a really great example of how to arrange a really great chord melody, no frills or crazy substitutions just play the changes and melody. Hope you can take something from it!

This is my best attempt at a note for note transcription of Roy Nichols solo on Honky Tonk Night Time Man. There is a lot to learn here , 6/9 arpeggios at the top with some nasty chromatic embellishments. Then over the 4 chord another cool arpeggio featuring a b7 and a major 9 interval. Both arpeggios are transposable to any key, try moving them around the neck!

HOLY COW 🐮, a full transcription of Time changes Everything! I would say the most interesting part of the tune can be found in the variation of the melody. It's a very simple tune and a very simple chord progression, so it starts off that way. By the third pass of the melody there are some noticable substitutions happening and the melody sounds similar but with a broader color palette. Most of the moment is happening in the turnaround, sometimes a chord per beat. Most of which is based off a V-I change, then a iii-VI-ii-V-I and the alterations continue. Hope you can takeaway something from it, enjoy!

Transcribed Hank Garland's Baby Guitar this morning and it is a serious right hand work out. My wrist is still on fire as I'm typing this lol. The tune is really simple when played at a reasonable tempo, it has an A and B section that repeats itself in 3 different keys. Would highly recommend to anyone that wants to work on there picking chops, it's pretty much a never ending 16th note exercise.
