This arrangement of John Hardy lies somewhere in between the Maybelle Carter style of guitar playing and Tony Rice. You've got melody notes on the bass strings, and chord notes to fill in rhythm-just like Mother Maybelle, and some bluesy runs just like Tony might have done it. Have fun with this one folks. That's what we're here for.

Bluegrass
This version of John Hardy is closely based on the note choice and phrasing of Tony Rice...the singing of Tony Rice that is! No matter what instrument you play, you should try and learn how to sing something before you play it. Playing like a singer will make your instrumental playing more fluid. If you play the same notes and rhythms that a bluegrass singer uses, you better believe it's going to sound authentic. Oh, there is also some cross-picking thrown in, because hey, that's cool too.
