Fingerpickin trouble - Bon Jovi

    Ok, came across this a few days back <click>.

    Now, the tabs look easy enough <snip> but this part after the intro is giving me hassle:

    <snip>

    Is it just a case of doing it really slowly and building it up, or is it my finger positioning all over the place? Look at the vid to see what I'm getting at - first section after intro.

    Please have a read of this. Unless you own the copyright of the song, do not put or link to tabs here, thanks.

    You have to admit though that the guy in the video certainly knows how to play. I think it sounds great

    That's Tommy Emmanuel, SoGlad posted a thread about fingerpicking and his general style ont this board, I don't know if it still exists or not though.

    Excellent guitarish chap, does his thang to loads of songs. It is mainly a matter of starting slowly. It's tricky learning to play rhythm and lead with the same hands, but it gets easier.

    Nah, sorry to dissapoint, but it's not Tommy Emmanuel - on the site the poster of the video denied it - plus the player in th vid has much younger hands.

    Ok, I'm building it up with a metronome at the minute anyway - my finger positioning was all over the place. Another pitfall with tabs, - sorted now anyway.

    My bad, it is terribly Tommyish in any case. You should probably check him out too(if you don't already know him) :)
