I didn’t know how hard it was until I tried to play it and ended up here 😂. Thank you for the video, it’s really helpful!!

Super helpful, thanks.

Wow brother.. I was running my pinky on the 6th string 8th fret, and my index across the 3rd and 4th string 5th fret. You're right, he does play it down there. Much better tone down on the 3. Eye opener for me. Thanks.

This takes a bit of practice but I keep everything down at the third fret. I drone the lower C note with my thumb, play the start pretty much the same as you but, I don’t slide up. Holding the low C note I have my pinky on the 2nd string 5th fret, ring finger 3rd string 5th fret, slide the pinky quickly to the 6th fret. Lift it quick then gut the 2nd atring 4th fret, 3rd string 5th fret, hammer on with pinky into the 5th fret 2nd string. Something you were doing, just all down at the third fret area.

man don't sell your self short. you got that tone dead nuts. I wish my tele can match that.

Thanks for posting...a visual was all I needed. Nice.

almost dead nuts, bro.....seen 'em live back in the day....

I think you are doing it correct down at C. I'm gonna do this every time I pick up a guitar now. Brent is fuckin awsome.

I think this a great lick rhythm, I will be back!

Barring the 3rd fret over the A string and G string you keep the bass thumping on the C and keep a drone or common note of the Bb under the moving upper B string part of the pinky on fret 6, middle finger on fret 4, and ring finger on fret 5. What is heard as a slide up is actually a quick simple singe fret chromatic pickup note that the index finger does sliding from fret 2 back into the C on fret 3. The three note chords then end up as C7sus4, Cm7, C7. Then it returns right into the 5-6-5-8 boogie thing. Some confusion is thinking that the second part is starting with an F chord over the C bass by barring parallel 4ths, but it is actually a parallel 5th keeping that dominant 7th of Bb to the C through the entire second phrase movement. That makes the whole thing simple and economical in hand movement. It also keeps the entire part on the 3rd fret where the strings have the correct life and pop to them.

Watch their video...he plays up closer to the nut.

Thats pretty bad ass. I'd probably capo it if I didn't have to get below C or G.

Look up the zztop brooks and dunn live version.. Youll see exactly how he plays it.. Totally different actually

Really nice! Next time could you include the part where you instruct how to play it. Ffs

Is that guitar you are using one of Fenders "nashville" tele's?

yes....the tone is different....the brighter tone is better...

S-L-O-W........D-O-W-N! J5

Sounds dead on
