101 Doggone Good Country Guitar Licks in the Honky Tonk Style


Product Description

Tablature, standard notation, CD

Classic country fill-in licks book by Larry McCabe

If you love the sound of a twangy, chicken-picked vintage Telecaster or Stratocaster guitar and want to learn the exciting country lead guitar fill-in style associated with classic truck driving songs, drinking songs, and cheating songs, this book is for you.

This fine book features 101 country guitar licks (phrases) that can be applied to standard chord progressions in thousands of country songs. The licks are primarily for the electric guitar and were recorded with a vintage Fender Telecaster playing over honky-tonk piano accompaniment. Useful introductions and endings are included along with instructions for how to apply the licks to songs.

This is not a method book per se, but a collection of 101 guitar licks for learning, application, and modification according to the discretion and requirements of the user. Most of the licks are accessible and fairly easy to play.

The licks can be applied to country songs from all eras including acoustic, honkytonk, and contemporary Nashville. In addition, the licks are a perfect match for the country-flavored pop stylings of artists like the Eagles, Bob Dylan, Jackson Browne, and similar musicians.

This is a book for early intermediate and intermediate guitarists who are enthusiasts and players of classic country music.

For Cajun music and rockabilly fans too.
