instrumental This is Chop Sticks, the beginner piano tune finger picked on guitar. It starts out rather simple, but gets more complex as the "student" progresses. Please read Story behind the song.

Fingerpickin guitar The real thing folks.. instrumentals, Country, Southern Rock, Blues, ..... whatever.
We're mostly comprised of musicians that have paid our dues playing clubs and bars. I had quit for 25 years before finally getting any interest in picking again. Now we do not play as a group anymore, but we all have DAW's, and we send CD's back and forth to each other. When someone wants me to pick on their CD, they just mail the .bun file to me, I open it, record my part, and send it back. Since I have picked up a guitar again I have met quite a few musicians from the area that I had not met before. And I have jammed with some of them, and recorded with others. Most probably I will also do some projects with people I have met at SoundClick. As long as I like the song and feel I can ad something positive to it, I'll do it. I just get to use what I play on in my CD's as well. I work cheap, don't I? On the other hand, no one could pay me enough to pick on a song I didn't like.

Story behind the song
This is a beginner piano piece that most have learned or at the least heard over and over again, but you probably never heard it on the guitar. Chop Sticks. Yeah, it’s a little crude because I didn’t formulate it’s progression through the song before I picked it. I laid down the track to try to see if I could establish a pattern for a future recording. It’s just a rough one shot through, but it gets more complicated each time through. I thought about not posting it until I did a good version, but then I thought it is a beginners piece...so why should it be played like a pro? Although this was for the pattern only, I was informed that was good enough to post, all things in consideration. The update is that through some creative editing, I removed two in it notes that I didn't like. I wanted to remove a third, but I couldn't because it was too tight. And I couldn't patch in because the strings don't match.
