Here's another example of the "Dead Thumb" technique. This one incorporates the constant bass line with sustained lead notes giving it a pedal steel guitar feeling.Unlike the previous example this one has a sweet, folk feel to it more in the style of the great Clarence White.Like the previous example it get's easier over time.Again, try playing this example both with a pick and without. (If you feel adventerous try these two examples with a thumb pick. Though not that common in some styles, the thumb pick is a regular feature in country, blues and folk guitar. It also gives a more pronounced bass attack while allowing three fingers free to play lead lines or chords.) |
