Intro to Chicken Picking

Intro to Chicken Picking is a free country guitar lesson by Peter Vogl that will introduce you to a basic philosophy on chicken pickin' or country playing. We will cover both the unique right hand picking technqiue as well as the music theory behind the licks. We will also learn some chicken picking licks and discuss the techniques necessary to get that twangy country guitar sound. We'll then play the licks we've learned over Track 5 (Attitude Country in D) of the Let's Jam! Country & Bluegrass.
