Anyone like chickin pickin?

[gnugear]

I love metal ... but I have to admit that I'm a closet country/rockabilly chickin picker. I just love that snappy finger style rhythm with a tele or Gretsch through a Fender. Anyone else want to fess up?

I've been practicing my Chickin' Pickin' a lot lately.

Love it. Don't know how to do it.

 

[MARK1970]

Yes, I love it. Can you recommend any tutorials on it ?

 

[Telephant]

I do it all the time but in a rock context. Its faster and easier than alternate picking IMO.

I can spend hours on youtube checking out Greg Koch.

Check out Brent Hinds from Mastodon. He's a chicken picker for sure. "Aqua Dementia", "Capillarian Crest", a part in "Megalodon" and I think "Pendulous Skin" has some of it too. Great chicken pickin' in a rock/metal context.

Ton of great Nashville players... Tom Bukovac, Brent Mason, Brad Paisley, Albert Lee, JT Corenflos, etc.

Here's a mix of some of Brad's solos:
