Guitar Lick Videos & Tabs!
Welcome to Country Guitar. We have licks, tablature, Videos, rhythm tracks and much more. Most of our tabs are viewable in a PDF file. Check out some of my original songs on the juke box above. We closed the Forum due to uncontrollable problems. Sorry!
These videos are made up of mostly shorter licks. I have found that learning short licks then combining them to make longer licks and even solos works better! Weekly Lick 11 Rhythm Chop PDF Weekly Lick 12 Up Neck Double Stop PDF Weekly Lick 13 Double Stops PDF Weekly Lick 14 Double Stops PDF

I've also been busy in my band HotWired going through some member changes. Anyway, I added the intro to Hillbilly Bone. There is two versions of the song. I like the more mellow version so that's what I based it on. My tabs are not exact but I try hard to keep them close. It is always nice to add your on style when playing anything. I had an email from someone who wanted a CountryGuitar.com T-Shirt. I sent him my logo and he introduced me to zazzle.com. He is having a shirt made there and suggested I set up a store to have shirts and other stuff available. They are a bit higher than normal shirts but if you are interested check it out http://www.zazzle.com/countryguitar_com*. I also added two weekly licks. My goal this year is to keep up with them, so keep checking back. Thanks to all who visits Country Guitar! We will be adding Guitar Pro 5 format to some of our videos. If you have Guitar Pro 5 you can download the file by clicking GP5. If you are not familiar with GP5 it is tablature & notation software. Jam Tracks Welcome to Jam Tracks!

I highly recommend this pedal. I have tried and own numerous compressor pedals, in my opinion this one is the best. I have a lot of questions about getting great tone, a compressor pedal is a must. Retailing at $200, they are a bit pricey but well worth the money! The Keeley Compressor is the standard for guitar compression. It won the Editor's Pick Award from Guitar Player Magazine and, most recently, the Reader's Choice Award for Stomp Box. It features an internal attack control to make it suitable for high-output active basses. It also features an input sensitivity control which allows it to be used in the studio for keyboards, drum machines, for mastering, and other line level uses. Features metal film resistors and capacitors, true bypass, and matched transistors matched for gain within 1%. Intonation Intonation is the ability to keep tune or keep same pitch for the entire length of the fret board. Having good intonation is essential part of playing guitar. You can have a guitar in perfect tune when the string are played open but when when fretted they are out or not in sync with the other strings. The slightest change can cause bad intonation. If you switch string gauges or temperature changes can cause you guitar's neck to shift or change. Also if you adjust the truss rod you may need to change intonation. I have found after I make a truss rod adjustment it is usually the next day before the neck settles then I make intonation settings. Guitars with individual saddles can be adjusted fairly easy. Your saddles have screws that hold them to the bridge. Tightening or loosening the saddle is how you adjust the intonation of a guitar. This makes the string longer or shorter thus changing intonation. If you look at your saddles they will probably be in different positions, not in a line. A string that has the same pitch played open as fretted on the twelfth fret has good intonation. All strings should have the same pitch played open and fretted on twelfth fret. Adjusting Intonation or Intonating a Guitar There are a couple things you will need to set your intonation. A screwdriver and good tuner. I recommend a strobe tuner as you will need precise tuning. Also use a chord to connect to your tuner for more accurate reading. Tune your string played open to pitch. Fret and play the twelfth fret. It should be the same pitch, if it is not here is what you do. If the twelfth fret is sharp move the saddle away from the fingerboard or making the string longer. If the twelfth fret is flat move the saddle closer to the fingerboard or make the string shorter. Remember to keep your hands off the neck after striking the note when tuning. The slightest weight on the neck can change the pitch. Do this for all strings and your guitar's intonation will be complete. Sign up for our monthly news letter.
