The Guitar of Chet Atkins


Taught by Chet Atkins

In this unique and powerful video lesson, Chet performs and explains in detail phrase by phrase his nine popular arrangements. The contents are for intermediate and advanced fingerstyle guitarists. You can learn all of Chet's techniques: rythmical galoping, beautiful harmonics, boogie-woogie counterpoint bass lines and so on. And you can master such nine famous tunes as: "When You Wish Upon A Star" known as the theme song of films "Pinokio", "Londonderry Aire", "Mr.Bo Jangles" and so on!

"Someone once asked me to estimate how many guitar lessonns I've had in my lifetime," Chet has said. "The answer is simple - none. There were no teachers in our neighborhood when I was learning. And if there had been I doubt whether they would have taught me with that with that shabby guitar of mine. But I kept a lookout for any stray 'picker' that wandered into town and if he knew any new runs I would learn them before he left." You are lucky because the instructer of this video is the greatest topliner of fingerstyle guitar. Have fun!
