jumpergirl 0 #3 July 20, 2004 Just about anything country sounds good on guitar - minus the sad, my woman left, my dog died, lyrics. "Cross My Heart" by George Strait is my favorite! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites diveout 0 #4 July 20, 2004 I have a friend who can play "tears in heaven" by Eric Clapton VERY well- it always gets a reaction ... keep it coming gals! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites jumpergirl 0 #5 July 20, 2004 Yes yes!! That's one!! Travis plays guitar... although I haven't heard him play since he doesn't have one. But just the thought of him playing... well... it makes me weak in the knees! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites diveout 0 #6 July 20, 2004 It gets 'em every time. Just amazing, also the classical song Fur Elise -it's on a lot of jewlery boxes and wind up snow globes.

There has never been any country played on my guitar and never will be. I respect the talent of the artists and all, but I can count the number of country songs I can just tolerate listening to, on like three or four fingers- and I don't really like those songs either For guitar, give me some Tom Petty, Foo Fighters, Clapton, Zepplin, Beatles, Pearl Jam or even Roy Orbison and call it good Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites lawrocket 3 #9 July 21, 2004 QuoteThere has never been any country played on my guitar and never will be Dude, you gotta open up a bit. Country's got some of the hottest pickers around - John Jorgenson, the legendary Charlie Sexton, Albert Lee, and Junior Brown. I've spent hours trying to get those country bends down... If for nothing else, study some of their techniques - string bending, uses of fifths and thirds. And Willie Nelson is simply breathtaking as a guitarist. My wife is hotter than your wife.

I know a lot of modern music has country roots and influence, and I dig Willie Nelson tunes kinda. OK fine I like Johnny Cash.
