Lost Indian- Doc Watson Tribute
advanced guitar
This lesson is for members
When we lost Doc Watson, we lost perhaps the greatest flatpicker and guitar slinger to ever live. This solo is a tribute to his timeless style and finesse, and I hope it did it justice! Go rest high on that mountain, Doc!

Great question. That's a slide going into the B part — I play it as a slide but a hammer-on works fine if that's cleaner for you. Do what sounds right.

Take the capo off and play it in open G a few times, then put it back. Helped me hear it.

Not just you. I still count this one out loud and I've been at it four years.
