I definitely can NOT do it. My fingers just don't want to. 
It is a hybrid picking style, usually uses a guitar pick plus one or more fingers. It is that classic "how the fuck is he playing that fast bit without moving the pick faster" country guitar sound. |

Jerry Donahue is definitely a certified pimp. I remembering reading a column of lessons he had in Guitar World a few years ago. However, your link is broken. |

I love the country style of guitar playing... it's pretty different from the shit most guitarists play and it sounds cool as all fuck. |

Yeah, the phrasing of it is so fricken cool. The way it runs through the chord changes, and the totally flash-as-fuck fast shit, that still has kind of a weird lazy sort of sound to it. Pretty derned sweet. |

Mayhap your shit is fucked? I can play it normal-like in firefox here.  Or. Maybe you hippy west coasters just aren't allowed to see things that are awesome on the internet, and the Man is blocking it? |

Now it's playing.  Weird. But anyways. GADFUCKINZOOKS on those bends.

Yeah, he is a total fucking boss. THAT is a style i want to learn. I can do some screwy bends, but nothing to the degree of slickness as the stuff he strings together continually, like it was nothing. Also that song he does is pretty epic. There are a couple parts that are just too slick to even understand. |

His tone is awesome, too. Eerie as fuck when he does those multi-bends. |

That is so badass. I can't hybrid pick at all. Like, at all, and my fingerpicking blows pretty hard to begin with.  I need to learn this, so much. It could make for incredibly fucked-up noisery. |

| Post subject: | Re: Chicken Pickin | |||||||||
My thoughts exactly. Like, it is cool enough that i would take lessons to have someone show me how to do it, if that is what it took. Which, for me, as an anti-schooler, is a big deal. |

Who does this in a rawk context? Seriously, there's a dearth of hybrid pickers ripping badass rawks. The only player I can think of off the top of my head who occasionally uses hybrid picking in a dirty rawk context I can think of, really, is Zakk Wylde. Maybe John 5? Yikes! There has to be someone a little less conventional than that, right? |

There's a cool hybrid picked thing in Mastodon's Megalodon. |
