FINGERPICKING WITH OPEN STRINGS IV

                              "PICK IT"

                           By:PJVillanueva





         This is based on Merle Travis picking style, with an 
         alternate walking bass, many syncopated notes and, of 
         course, some open string notes to spice the thing.
         Try the chords separately first, then isolate and work 
         which you find the most difficult and finally assemble 
         the piece.
         I found this style very amusing to learn and it can be 
         played quite fast when you get it.

 



 
         Right hand fingerings:

         i  index
         m  middle
         r  ring
         s  small (it may be useful sometimes)
