There a couple of channels out there , and you know when you're trying to find out some straight to the point info, that you can depend on them. And this for sure is one of them. Thank you very much for all your help.
a blessed day mother jamie i ask about travis picking if G chord pluck 2and6 how about C A Bm what the combination string to pluck and also D chord what the combination to pluck
The picking pattern is the same for every chord except for the bass note. The bass note for a G is 6 (counting strings from the bottom), C is 5, A is 5, Bm is 4 (if you are not doing the barre chord) and D is 4.
Hello Jamie, i am an older player 66 (intermediate beginner ?) and i got the idea i want to learn travis picking. I saw and practice your video on finger picking in general which was extremely helpful and challenging. Not that i have mastered any thing but i wanted to add Travis picking as well to my education and keep learning and working at it. It seems that Travis picking is more widely used ( i like to play the tunes of my times(60's to 80"s) Would i be right to say that travis picking would give a more truly sound to songs? I wanted to know about the other cords beside C and G , do you have any written notes as to using the other open chords IE: D, DM EM AM etc.. with Travis Picking? I was also wondering about the technique of travis picking, it seems that there a few others OUT there on the internet showing how to learn travis picking and a few are different Are there many kinds of Travis picking? Thank you Now back to practice Michel
Travis picking is more about timing than exactly what strings you're plucking. Often it's 1 2&3&4&. The first pluck is one beat and the rest is a 1/2 beat. It's easier to hear it than it is to try to explain it. Travis picking works well for anything in 4/4. It's the picking pattern often used by Gordon Lightfoot and other folkies but you can also hear it in songs like "Dust in the Wind."
Thanks again for the video Jamie just a question you said as you change chords the base would change also, but likewise wouldn't the string pattern change? for instance in G you'll hit 6 + 2 since Gis the bass string but if you move up to C C is 5 and as you go up to D D is the 4th string how does that correlate to the strings you would play .I don't know if I'm making myself clear but I think you get where I'm going .you said it didn't matter what strings you play but at the same time you're changing chords .just need a little clarification. sorry if I'm a little long-winded here. Happy New Year.
As long as you're hitting the correct bass note and the same rhythm, you're good. Any chord where the fourth string is the bass will change the most. In that case you may have to hit one string twice.
Thanks for showing this style of fingerpicking as I’ve always done it with a certain organized chaos lol. I am also a big John Prine fan, and wondered if he generally used this style in most of his songs?
I am playing a Dobro in open G. I really like your fingerpicking pattern (B32123) Here is my qustion: Can the Bass note move from fret to fret? example, G is open, 6th. string, C is 5th. fret 6th string and D is 7th. fret 6th, string. by during this sometimes I can do a slide between chords. By any chance do you have or could you selll me a book with your fingerpicking tabs.
This pattern should work well for Dobro. Yes, the bass note changes, depending on the chord. For instance, if you're playing a G chord, that's the note that should be in the bass. A C chord should have a C, etc. I don't sell a book, sorry, but I do cover several fingerpicking patterns in these lessons: ua-cam.com/play/PLOQxX1VhvmZwoSWJGupBUkUSYxJjSpmQc.html
Jamie you have a talent for teaching! Just a question, does the bass note that you taught change when the root not of the chord change or can you still use the same bass notes ? For example can you use the same bass notes when on the D chord for example ?
Thanks! The bass note changes according to the chord. It's usually the tonic of the chord. For instance, the tonic of a C chord is a C note -- the fifth string if you're playing the chord. For D, it would be the fourth string. I have a video that covers this that I'll post in the coming weeks.
Thanks, Donald. I already have a couple of their songs, Fire & Rain, Sweet Baby James and Sundown. Links are below. ua-cam.com/video/sRdvGALIUOY/v-deo.html
Not in this version. Sometimes I do use that bottom string. The key with this picking pattern is the rhythm, not necessarily the string you're plucking.

You're welcome. There are a lot of ways to Travis pick. Don't let anyone tell you that there's only one way.

Thanks a million. Any recommendations to what songs would sound good
You're welcome -- The Boxer, Dust in the Wind, Blackbird -- it works for a lot of songs in 4/4 even if the original doesn't use it.

hi.when travis picking,what is the pattern you play when you go to the different chords.
It's all Travis picking. The only thing that changes is the bass note.
Is Travis picking what Steve Young does on seven Bridges road?
No. I think he's strumming, using an alternating bass.
a blessed day mother jamie i ask about travis picking if G chord pluck 2and6 how about C A Bm what the combination string to pluck and also D chord what the combination to pluck
The picking pattern is the same for every chord except for the bass note. The bass note for a G is 6 (counting strings from the bottom), C is 5, A is 5, Bm is 4 (if you are not doing the barre chord) and D is 4.
You are great Jamie

Jamie really enjoy all your lessons and music. Studying your Travis Picking. Could you do a video using it on John Prine's "I Remember Everything?"
I love that song! I'll add it to the list. It's a long list so it may take me awhile to get to it.
lovely lesson. thankss
You're welcome.
Very good lesson 😃...just a doubt....since you are only using 2nd to the 6 the string ... What happens when we play D7 and g7....
The only string that changes is the bass note. The bass note for D7 is 4th string (counting from the bottom) and for G7, 6th.
Thanks
Thanks so much..I'm learning it now..your a legend..!!!thanks again ..
I love being a legend. :)
GREAT JOB
Thanks, Gene.
Very good teaching
Thank you, Kim. If you haven't already, please subscribe.
I see that your playing the 6 & 2 base for the G Chord and the 5th string on the C Chord, What string are you Plucking the the D chords?
The bass note on D is the fourth string from the bottom
Beautiful
Thank you
Thanks again
Always welcome

I don't skipped the ads :)
Can you still do this with a , say B minor? 🎚🥀💐🙏🕊
Sure. It works with any chord, you just have to change the bass note.
Thanks Jamie you're the buiss

Thank you Jamie for the lessons,, much appreciated 👍
You're welcome.
Please increase the strings on the second part.I do not understand pluck(1) 2&3&4&.Thank you
"Pluck" is another word for "pick." So you are picking more than one string at once.
@@JamieAndersonMusic Thanks❤👍
Muy bien🌷🌷🌷🌷
Gracias!
❤❤❤
Glad you enjoyed that
nice little by little i will learn haha
It's all about the practice. :)
Nice video. I notice the first string isn't used with this strum at all
Not in this version. Sometimes I do use that bottom string. The key with this picking pattern is the rhythm, not necessarily the string you're plucking.
beauty. marry me please.
