        Hey everyone!! This was my first crosspicking tune that I learned last month. It’s a flatpicking technique I plan to apply to many other tunes. Always stretching! I hope everyone enjoys a wonderful weekend…

          That was really cool, Glen! I fully appreciate your skill level, since I’ve also been working on my cross-picking over the past months. Molly Tuttle is my main inspiration, even though us ordinary mortals can never reach her level of expertise.

              Thank you, Steve!! I look forward to seeing how your crosspicking is progressing. Share with us! I just saw Molly Tuttle last week here in Northern VA. Yes, she’s incredible!!! Cheers!

              Wonderfully played… smooth, fluid and melodic. A great listen.

                                          Yep I agree with the other comments, so smooth and articulate not a note out of place
                                          A classy tune to have in your repertoire.
