Country-Tele: In The Style of Johnny Hiland
Hi Twangers and telemaniacs.

4 months has gone since last project together with Kevin.

This time I went for some Hiland stuff - cause I wanted to raise the bar
on my speed and picking technique. And damn I almost crashed on that project. Hiland is INSANE fast and INSANE precise in his playing....and I'm not

Anyhow - hope you'll enjoy it.

Keep pickin' and uploadin'

PS: you can download backingtrack and TABS if you jump to Youtube.

Stunningly wonderful. This is one of the toughest pieces there is, and nobody has covered it yet - and it is not likely anybody will! You will see my other comments on the YouTube page itself - but suffice to say the playing is superb and the tone - damn, the tone is just insane. Sounds like something cut in a big Nashville studio. You built an amazing backing track too. Technically this is about a 9+ difficulty level - but you got through those fast passages at the same speed Johnny recorded them. Pretty amazing.
Great, great work - I know it took a ton of work to get this one down.
Kevin.

Excellent!
Awesome man!! Great technique and tone.

I'm working on Hiland's "Chicken Pickin Heroes" right now. It's tough stuff to figure out but feels so good once it's under the fingers and in muscle memory.

Lars did put up a 7 minute video of his hand/finger technique and how he recorded it - - but I do not see it now. Maybe he will post a link when he checks back in here.

Hi Guys.
Thanks for your feedback. This forum is such a pleasure to be in.
Kevin is right - I've got a video to be uploaded on how-to but I'm struggling with a problem on youtube - the sound is distorted and out of sync....weird - cause I use the same M.O as always...will drop a post here when its up.

You should throw it up on VIMEO to see if you have the same problem.....

How I got the sound for the Hiland video
I have made a sound setup video showing what I used and how I recorded the soundtrack. Hope it's worth watching - I need a cameraman

Lars,

That was so darn good. Thank you so much for the tutorial on the tone as well. What a nice thing to put up for all to see. I am now getting a book of matches to burn all my gear! :)

Best to you. Great playing. - Jon
