Discover Travis Picking for Guitar in 12 Progressive PiecesThe Guitar Travis Picking Song Book is your guide to the art of Travis picking.

If you've ever heard the late, great Chet Atkins, your first thought was probably that you were listening to twoguitars playing. Surely, he must have overdubbed these complex syncopated melodies, chords and basslines?! But when you discovered he was playing all the parts simultaneously, you had to pick up your jaw from the floor...

This is how most people's obsession with Travis picking begins!

This Travis picking song book provides an insight into the art of Travis picking for guitar using study pieces in the style of the Travis picking greats: from Merle Travis (the man who pioneered this technique), right through to modern virtuoso players like Tommy Emmanuel.

In this book you'll learn to play twelve classic tunes, all arranged for Travis picking, and have each technique broken down step-by-step. You'll discover how to use a thumb pick to achieve the classic boom chicksound and create an authentic feel.

The Guitar Travis Picking Songbook contains Travis picking arrangements of the following twelve songs, which will introduce huge variety into your repertoire:

American Folk Medley New World Theme Waltzing Matilda Korobeiniki Limehouse Blues Air On The G String After You've Gone I'll See You In My Dreams

Dinah Dance Of The Sugar Plum Fairy The Entertainer Rondo Alla Turca

Each piece is broken down with the key techniques discussed in a brief introduction to the tune.
