Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, click this link (fngt.gq). That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask Crazy, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then you can donate.

That's a real good finger picking tune. It's one of those songs that is hard to stop trying to get it right. Toe tapper too. They call it Travis Picking.

Saw your banjo post. I good banjo song (instrumental) is Washington Square by The Village Stompers. Starts out Banjo & Guitar then goes in Dixieland Jazz. Unique type of song.

I have heard of travis picking somewhere along the way but I am not sure just what it is

It's country bluegrass kinda stuff. Merle Travis invented it. Chet Atkins made it more mainstream. He's (Chet) like the main man of guitar.

It's like you're playing percussion, bass, and the melody at the same time. Very bouncy stuff.

I don't mess with it much. It sure is rhythmic.

Do they use the travis picking on the banjo?
