Today's Target and Pay Per Lesson release is now live ..

This fingerpicking instrumental, Buffalo Gals is an American folk song from the mid-19th century. Neil’s arrangement is done in Open G Tuning, which makes for pretty simple chords and left hand moves. The right has one section using standard alternating bass technique but another using what he calls an eighth note roll, where there are only three bass notes in each measure, played in a syncopated pattern. Overall not too difficult, as long as you start very slowly and get it smooth before speeding it up.

This lesson is a Level 6.

Enjoy,
Mike

I admit, I love these traditional instrumentals, so I'm excited to give this song a try. Plus, I'd just tuned one of the guitars to open G to try out Romeo and Juliet, so now i have something else to work on in that tuning (and I realized today that Circle Game is also in open G, so I can go back and try to practice that, too).

Thanks!
