Video Lesson:

Greetings from Ohio, USA!

The snow has started to fall and the deer are in rut! The seasonal classics can be heard just about everywhere. In this 7 minute video, I'll show you how to play "Jingle Bell Rock." I'll do a solo basement performance of one verse at the end. You will find several versions of this song and other holiday classics tabbed out under "M" in the miscellaneous tabs section at Ultimate-Guitar. My version is a combination of the tabs, and I added a final resolve to a D(6 add 9) chord.

For those of you celebrating the season, may you and your families have the best.

Peace on Earth,
- Pick

BamBam01 :

Hi Pick and everyone else. Great vid as usual!
Random question for anyone - I'm having trouble growing my thumbnail for fingerpicking, should I get a stick-on false one or does anyone have a better idea?
Happy New Year to all.

guitar_n00b :

Hi pick, another great vid.
ive got a suggestion mayb, u can teach it in one of ur future videos.
i see some people using their thumb sometimes, but i dont know when u would use it, and im terrible with it. i also think my hand is too small to be able to mute the top three strings with my thumb.
