Lesson ID: A0219
In this guitar lesson, you’ll learn how to play one of the most common bluegrass standards called “Arkansas Traveler” in the key of D. We’d highly recommend learning this song if you ever go to bluegrass jams, and even if you’re not into playing fiddle tunes on guitar, it’s a really good song to use for working on your pick control and accuracy.
After you learn the flatpicking arrangement, practice along with the “Arkansas Traveler” backing track that comes with this guitar lesson. The lesson tablature is available for download below the lesson video.
Lesson Overview
First time I heard this here, I had a hankering to watch Deliverance for some reason.
Working my way through this one slowly – enjoying the sweet tones of D Major!
I love it! Always enjoy the Play Along With Tabs!!! That’s another reason I stay with Devin’s lessons!! Thank you Devin!
This is the tune Roy Underhill started his tv show with, very catchy tune and now I can learn to ply it, thanks Devin
All is good except I cannot get the loop timer to work Devin can you help
Hey Daniel! I just checked it out on my laptop and it seems to be working ok… to set a loop, press play, then press the Set A button to set the IN POINT, then press the Set B button to set the end of the loop… then press the Run Loop button. Is it giving you some other sort of error?
