Who is, "the best guitarist who never heard of?" If you do not know Doug Seven, then you might have recalled his "sizzling guitar licks" tutorials. There was a time when Doug Seven ruled KZfaq in its early days. He was teaching Country Guitar on a scale that nobody else was doing in the early days of KZfaq. I was a fan. Doug is easily the Best country guitarist you have never heard of! I thought about Doug many times over the years. He stopped posting videos and basically he became a name that I would occasionally think of.
The return of virtuoso Doug Seven is something that has been long overdue. He is a master of country guitar riffs, country guitar licks, "chicken Pickin," B-bender, to name a few. He's also a fabulous country guitar teacher! For great country guitar lessons, dog is one of the few people I would send my students to!
Doug has not only returned, he is beginning a new vibrant chapter in his life. He's launched a new teaching website and he is back on the horse again. I just know you're going to enjoy this interview which will most likely be my last guitarist interview.
Why not add to your arsenal and learn yourself some country guitar from Doug himself!?

I have to tell you it’s bizarre that you’re contacting Doug. Besides your guitar chops and wonderful interviewing skills, your compassion and honesty always shines thru. Around 2016 I wrote to Doug and asked him to evaluate my hybrid picking and country playing. This style was still new for me even though I had played professionally in other styles. I was moving my family from NY to Nashville and he was so kind and encouraging in addition to being an amazing player. I could tell something was going on with him but I’m glad you were able to discuss it. Great interview with one of my favorites👍

Jimmy, this is fantastic! I actually have received quite a bit of heat from interviewing him. I didn’t know anything about his past, but it’s pretty evident that he has had some challenging times (as we all have). I’m so glad that this resonated with you well!

All I want is the two downloads I purchased (3 Pillars of Soloing Rapid Fire Edition and Playing in Circles) that I lost when he shut down the Sizzling guitar Hub. What would have happened if I would have responded to one of the 40 emails trying to get me to purchase the whole bundle at once? It's time for Doug to make good.

I was interested in getting Doug’s stuff as I am a rock player who has fallen in love with ripping country guitar and Doug was always an inspiration and the type of country player I wanted to become. I never got his stuff because I heard he dropped off the face of the earth and wondered whatever happened to him. Good on you for doing this brother!

Thank You for your kind words, Don! To be honest with you, I love doing the guitar interviews. The sad thing is that it really doesn't help me build a base other than being a, "great interviewer." Unfortunately, that's incredibly difficult to monetize! Not to mention, lots of players see me as a "nobody," so what I found was that many people that I thought would make a good interview simply ignored my outreach. Doug is a great guy and he deserves this interview! I will have to continue doing the tutorials considering that that is where I need to try to build my base. After all, I am a teacher by trade! Once again, thank you for appreciating all the hard work it takes to get this done

The people want to know how. How do we get our brain to think in country lingo. How do we get up the neck, what are ALL the country techniques, and what are the exercises to get us there. Most instructors say, here, play this lick. We want an instructor that says, this lick is in A major but adds the b3, b5. Then it use a b7 making it Mixolydian. Little chunks.

Thank you so much Bill! Yes, we are in a time and of course during the pandemic… We’re playing with a live band is not something a lot of people do. I suppose I was lucky/unlucky enough to have done a lot of that in my earlier years. Some of the more laughable moments that I have seen is when people play rhythm guitar. They think that that would actually work on a record/Live gig with good players.🤪 Anyways thank you for your support with my channel! Come to think of it… I should put up a Patreon shouldn’t I?

​@@streetwiseguitar5113 No disrespect to Doug at all, he's a very skilled talented guitarist, no bout a doubt it! However, it takes more then some fast picking licks to be a successful guitarist in Nashville, trust me. I grew up playing bars & clubs in Cleveland with a guitarist & pal who is one of Nashville's sought after session & touring guitarist Tom Bukovac. I'm not being pessimistic or saying Doug has no chance at success on Music Row, I wish him & every musicians nothing but the best, go for it. There's just a lot more to the music industry than what most people think. You have to be & have the whole package, even then luck plays a part, there are many factors involved people overlook. Seriously, don't you think he'd be in Nashville right now doing all that guitar work if it was that easy? Ye-haw, giddy up & go get it, good stuff here though my friend, keep on, keeping on! ++Peace & Rock n' Roll 4 Your Soul++
