Country Guitar Lessons
Customer Feedback
Ken breaks it down and it’s easy to learn and understand, unlike some of the other instructional videos on the internet or anywhere else for that matter.
I played with the band Ricochet for 3 years and wished that I could do half of the stuff that Heath Wright was doing beside me every night! Maybe now I can get a little closer!
But not until Ken’s video where he slows things down lick by lick did I really start to learn the country picking style. It’s not easy. It take effort. Ken’s video is the best I’ve ever seen. If you can’t learn from his video then you’re not putting in the time. I’m buying whatever he puts out next.
The combination of scales and the way you explain it is the key to the whole video. For that you should have a golden star in your book of life. Keep up the fantastic work!
You explain things in an easy manner – without a lot of rambling – explaining your thought process along the way. Anyway, please keep up the good work – I’ve been playing guitar for a good 35+ years, but every time I watch your videos I learn something new that I CAN USE… Proud to be able to call you Friend.
Many thanks!
Its about 3:30am now here in Johannesburg and I’m getting ready for bed, but I’ve been practicing and jamming to your DVD since about 9pm last night and I just can’t seem to get enough! Thanks again Ken for everything!
I pretty much knew I was going to order it when I saw the title, as Paisley’s licks and runs always leave me baffled, lol. But, when I watched the demo video I could hear a difference in your playing immediately! Congrats on getting this DVD together, I can tell put a lot of hard work in it and I can’t wait to start on it! Thanks
Still working on Folsom, but yesterday I played the rock (jam track) tune and started improvising. I like the way you force me into thinking and playing. These videos will last a long time!!
Excellent Video! As a guitarist who plays a lot of finger-style, I find it extremely important to have a slow and thorough breakdown between the left and right hand parts. You go through it slowly and break it down into enough sections that they can be processed and interpreted very easily.
Thank you very much for your lessons, I enjoyed them so much that I want to invite you for free to our kite safari in Egypt with kitesurfcamp.net team, where we will gladly take a few more lessons
Hi Ken and all the country guitar chop followers
I’m Stones from Swaziland, Africa ( a small country sharing it’s borders with South Africa & Mozambique). I’m a member of a local country music duo, Dusty & Stones. Some time in 2015 an American friend of ours sent us the “Picking like Paisley” DVD lessons, and, boy, was i trilled. In the band i play lead guitar most of the time, and these dvd’s where all that i needed. I like the way you go about with your lessons, taking things slow, one step at a time. It make life easier even for a beginner. The “Pickin’ like Paisley” dvd’s have really helped me alot. My playing, speed and understanding of country guitar has really improved alot, and thanx to you Ken. Keep up the good work.
..eer..2014 not 2015

Hi Ken this is Cliff Walker from Bardstown Kentucky. I just want to say thank you so much man for doing what you do for all of us. my anniversary date is January 17th I started in 2020 and I’ve been with you one year and I have improved 100%. I look forward to you putting out more songs for all of us. It’s a great thing being apart of your teachings. I believe I’m a lifetime member. LOL appreciate you brother thank you
why do you like the ” jumbo ” frets are they a reason for it ?
Ken is an excellent teacher and professional musician , I checked out countless other instructors and web sites from famous musicians and professionals by far Ken goes out of his way to make sure you can understand all aspects of learning country guitar, not only that but he has compiled a massive institution of country guitar learning , and the price is beyond the best deal around and while there are a ton off instructors and classes he not only shows you the songs and tricks but you can clearly see his finger positions and how to do it , many instructors don’t take in to consideration the person trying to learn is opposite from the instructors, ken has tackled this issue and many others in a totally comprehensive and complete course that combines years or playing and learning , if you want to learn his course is the one you need , I am having a blast learning and playing country music
Ken- I joined to learn Brent Mason’s solos on “I Don’t Even Know Your Name”. The first time I heard the song I said- “well I’ll never be able to play that”… until our band decided to cover it. Uh Oh! Your lessons are so easy to follow and the way you break down the parts makes me feel like it’s a one-on-one lesson. You’re a gifted player! I’m only about 1/2 way through the first solo but miles and miles ahead of where I’d be just slowing down the track and trying to figure out what he played. Thank you! Looking forward to finishing the solos on this tune and moving on to others.
Hi Ken, I stumbled upon you on YouTube some time ago and I immediately jumped on board. I’m 62 and I am my 87 year old mom’s full time caregiver, so my time is limited. But I have to say that in all the many years I’ve been fooling around with guitars, learning as I go, you’ve had the most significant impact on my playing, ever. The way you break everything down into easy to understand terms is so awesome, it’s a breath of fresh air. My confidence is higher than it’s ever been. I am grateful for you and I’ll be along for the ride for the rest of my life. Thanks so very much Ken. What you do is so great!
I’ve literally been playing guitar 60 years. I learned by watching my Grandpa and step dad. I take something from everyone…but I’ve got my own style and it’s served me well. I normally wouldn’t spend the time or money to enroll in a course. In the case of Ken teaching… yeah I can do about 90% of what he’s teaching…but with my own touches…I do get a nugget from everything he teaches…do I then turn around and emulate him.. nope….but I sure as heck follow his roads he puts me on. I had a particular song…that I could play…but the intro was just flat kicking my butt. I called Ken. He was pretty busy…but about 10 minutes later he called back…and said are you by your guitar…yep…ok..do this….it worked … it was easy…and I missed it. As far as someone who can teach…Ken is the man…lots can play…very few can teach.
