Galloping guitar

Post by Don Griffiths »

I’m writing a song for a friend that passed away. I would really like to get a galloping horse feel to it on E9th or Uni tuning.I already tried the search function. Does anyone know how to play something like that? I can get the rhythm but can’t find the notes.

Hi Don,

Here is a link to my playing Fingerstyle Ride or Ride For E9th. It's from a course that I have available.

Hope it helps:

Thank you Roy. Is that one guitar? Sounds great, a little like Chet Atkinson backed up by a pedal steel. Do you have a link to your course?
I’ll check the instruction section of the forum.

Don, that is just pedal steel, one guitar and it is in Atkins Style. I don't think the Course is listed in the Forum?
