Dean,

After surfing the guitar stuff for the last few weeks, and downloading some

great bits, I've just finished tabbing a piece by a local guitarist Tommy

Emmanuel. This guy is a GOD in this country and this piece is not an easy one

to play well. But it is worth the effort!

As I am new to 'surfing' I'm not entirely sure how to 'do it right', so to

speak. So I've sent it as an e-mail to yourself. Please give me some feedback

to let me know how I've done.

Regards,

Grenville Davies

COUNTRYWIDE by Tommy Emmanuel

Tommy Emmanuel is probably not that well known outside Australia but when

a guy like this plays as the support for Eric Clapton, on EC's Journeyman

tour a few years back... What can I say? The man is very GOOD. For those of

you lucky enough to have access to Tommy's CD's try to keep up!

This is the accoustic version given to me by my tutor, Blaise Trouncer, the

approximate running time of the recording is 2:45 mins. The electric version

is something else again - a lot more improvising and effects. I prefer the

accoustic version but you're welcome to give the strat a burst!

This is an instrumental written by Tommy Emmanuel for a TV show in Australia

called Countrywide. The program was shown on the government run station ABC.

It is played at a brisk pace with special emphasis on the bassline - marked

by the dots under the tab. Tommy plays the bass notes with his thumb, I think.

Well that's it. Give it a go. I've been playing it for quite a while and

still haven't got the speed of Mr Emmanuel. But that's why we practise isn't it?

Dean,

I've discovered a few problems with the copy I sent back to myself.

The format of the screen is a little suspect. Give it a go and if there's too

many problems I'll fax it to you as a guide to what should be aligned.

Regards,
