Looking for online Country/Western guitar riffs; tabs and videos preferred
February 15, 2005 4:23 PM   Subscribe

For you pickers out there: I'm in need of some online resource for country & western guitar riffs. It can be any style or period of country (Merle Travis to Ricky Skaggs). Would prefer tab and/or video but mostly just a big emphasis on country music. I've tried a number of sites but maybe I'm missing a good one?

Response by poster: Thanks Karl! I did use the Fender Players Club and copped some nice steel riffs. I'll check the others out as well.

Buy a couple Chet Atkins books and just concentrate on the top strings.

altcountrytab is, well, not that tabby. But they have cowpie-syle choord transcriptions of folks that sometimes don't make it on to cowpie.
