- My notes
The "Swamp Country II" lesson is the second piece inspired by the playing of Jerry Reed. The tone is twangy. I'm using the bridge pickup on my tele with some compression, overdrive, and slapjack delay. Stylistically I would call this chicken picking with a lot of hybrid picking, double-stops and distinct use of staccato/palm muting. Enjoy!
