Acoustic Journey by Molly Tuttle
THE CLAW
In the first of her series of monthly lessons, Molly Tuttle demonstrates a style of fingerpicking known as clawhammer guitar, in a tuning that is similar to a banjo tuning, sometimes referred to as “mountain minor tuning.”

4 and a half minutes of "I can do that!" followed by 30 seconds of crushing return to reality.
You read my mind
Haha, sometimes I can forget just how good she actually is.
It never lasts too long though.
Must. Go. Slow. Uhhh. Slower. Slower. Ah!
I'm thinking the big red "S" is hidden behind the guitar body.. LOL!!
Sounds like me watching the breakdown of Big Love on acoustic by Lindsay Buckingham. I went from "is that all he''s doing?" to "I am so bad on guitar" in under a minute.
Heard her play this past May in Asheville, NC. It’s an amazing experience to watch her play! It’s like she has super powers. And such a sweet, humble person!
How about she's our new favorite super hero, okay? 😃
Molly Tuttle, probably one of the most talented people on this planet. What she does on her guitar is absolutely jaw dropping! Thanks a lot for sharing this video. Please stay all healthy. God bless!
I love Molly, she’s amazing! So happy to see lessons from her. Thanks!!!
I love Molly !!! Please do more lessons with her
Awesome, a Molly Tuttle lesson. Rich!
Really cool playing technique and musicianship. I love that in between drone vibe you get leaving out the 3rd and being able to drop hints of M or m in and out at will...Great vocal tone too!
Truly inspirational! Thank you for sharing your story and showing us the claw hammer technique!
As a old-time banjo player I love this!
That was soo amazing! MORE of these, please!
Such a great technique/style, and Molly is a master who makes it sound effortless.
Love this. She's always been a highly regarded player imo. Love that she got insight into this. Its basically the bass note at the last note before starting all over agsin.
Thank you for my first introduction to the Claw Hammer method. I will be working on it!
Awesome! :D I've heard that kind of sound so many times before but had no idea how they did it; this was very helpful
Definitely need more lessons by Molly. One of my favorite guitarists & musicians out there now. I would kill to play 1/1000000th of that :D
Excellent, excellent playing! Great job!
Saw her band a bit over a year ago in Baraboo, Wisconsin for $20! My wife, son, daughter and son-in-law all had fifth row seats. We knew she was an up-and-coming star, and that she would eventually become a household name, at least in bluegrass circles. What a great concert it was. She's an amazing guitarist and rivals Alison Krauss with her angelic voice.
"Merciless" groove!! This will keep me busy for a while.. Thank you Molly!
Neat. Good teaching style from Molly.
I love that technique. I want to explore it further. Thank you for the lesson.
Never heard of this before. Thanks for educating us.
So cool! Love this clawhammer style
Molly is so incredibly talented and a truly good soul through and through.
Good to hear good folk saying good things about other good folk.
Wow! This is so cool, what a great lesson. Can we have more of this please. Molly is really good, not seen her before. 👍
Thank you Molly ! Who says an old guy learning by ear and a prayer during Covid lockdown can't learn a new trick ! Wow I think I'm getting it !...while also freeing up my trouble strumming.Can't thank you enough for sharing your awesome skills. Mike in Marblehead
Wow, her voice sounded so beautiful in unison with the guitar part.
I really like the sound of that tuning.
I was very impressed by her singing, too.
She is an *extraordinary* talent (and by talent, I mean of course that she put in tons of work and practice to become who she is). Check out this video of her if you want to hear something else amazing!!! czcams.com/video/awFeDMNiKX4/video.html
Thanks GW, and thanks MT! I loved it
I'd never heard of that style of guitar playing before, which is amazing being that it's a logical extension of a well known banjo style. And it suits Molly's open and less rigid virtuosity. Cool video.
Thank you Molly! That was a great introduction to that style of playing. Definitely piqued my interest.
Molly is awesome, love this claw hammer style
This is excellent!! Great instruction! Thanks for sharing this.
Been following Molly for a while. I HIGHLY suggest you search for her flatpicking videos. Trust.
I remember first seeing her in a video about her getting a new guitar. She's superb!
Your explanation is fantastic! Anyone who can pick at all can add this to their arsenal.
Beautiful playing. Thank you so much.
Thanks Molly,
Thanks Guitar World...
New sub here, would love to see more molly tuttle stuff she’s incredible !
Awesome ,ive been playing clawhammer banjo but a guitar is lying in the corner, now i can use it too. i suspected all along it could work ,i wish Molly lived next door so i could direct my practise time efficiently .here in west aus don't even have a banjo teacher ,but I still enjoy the noises i produce playing a bit each day.
Thank you Molly, such an inspiration.
I felt in love with Molly Tuttle's music one year ago, i highly recommend this first (and only) album "when you're ready" and the ep " rise ". Just great songs, great vocal, great guitar, great arrangement. Traditional and fresh at the same time. And of course an amazing guitar player ... !!! By the way this technique is really interesting, let's work now.
In 2019 she released another album
I’ve followed her for over 10 years.... amazing talent!... but so are her Dad and brothers.
Fascinating demo!
I love this so much. Thank you for sharing.
I was looking for Molly Tuttle guitar lessons and found this!! Exactly what I was looking for
Oh my!!!! Thanks, Molly!
Really interesting. I just like Molly's delivery too; not complicated and not showy.
Especially for how great a player she is too. Check out white freightliner blues that she covered.
That was super cool! Even has an Irish sound to it! Thanks for sharing!
Very kool technique, Thank you for sharing!
Well presented. I believe it is the best I have seen Clawhammer explained and demonstrated.
thank you Molly ! very cool and love the step by step explanation !
Amazing!
Love your backdrop Molly, Those posters are great!!
Molly is incredible! Dig it!
matthew white... Always!
Stephen Stills uses this technique as well. He was my main inspiration to learn acoustic blues and bluegrass.
The minute she started playing full on, I thought of "Black Queen!"
@@kurthallsman I was thinking of Toe the Line or Word Game when she started playing.
Neil Young too, like on "Captain Kennedy" for instance.
Yes,Stephen Stills ⚡️👍
Very nice lesson! I'm in San Francisco in your neck of the woods...used to see a lot of this at Amnesia in the good old days. Thank you for being so nice and clear!
You made it look easy. I had never heard of clawhammer style but it sounded amazing when I heard you play. Thanks
Watch Andy Griffith. It's what Sheriff Andy Taylor plays all the time!

She's NOT a musician
Brandon Van Delden - What do you mean? She’s a phenomenal musician
@MegaStick93 anybody defending a female holding a guitar IS ALSO A FEMALE. That's you.
Nice, sounds great, especially at the ending tempo...thanks!
This is awesome, never heard of clawhammer guitar before, gonna try this for sure! 👍🏼
Molly did 5 riffs for G P about 9 months ago.. The middle one was on claw hammer.... The mountain tuning is beautiful and I STILL can't get it!!! Nothing wrong with a challenge! Keep on plucking Miss Tuttle! X
Holly Molly that was great! Thanks for the lesson
Love her music.
Fascinating and inspiring. 🌹
Im glad to have a sweet teacher like you
Really nice playing. So precise. Very cool.
Loved it. Molly. Thx. Never quite heard or saw that technique before.
That is entirely too cool! I love it!
Molly rocks......such a talented, classy person.........well done🇦🇺
Eric Messer... Yep!!
I play guitar Scruggs style banjo and have always wanted to learn clawhammer banjo. Didn't know till now that there was such a thing as clawhammer guitar. Sounds very cool.
Wow so cool!
Thanks Molly, great information for a banjo player!
Thanks Molly, great lesson.
More Molly Lessons Please!
That was awesome
Very good explained, Molly, thank you and greetings from Germany 🙏🤗
My Dad always used to talk about clawhammer, and he used to be able to do it, too. Now I finally understand what it is!
Good video. Made me remember, I had a crazy friend in college who used to write songs simply on the open strings of a standard E tuned guitar, really only so much you can do, but I appreciated his zeal.
That will teach you about interesting phrasing and call and response. I also had a friend in college who could jam on one chord for an hour and make it sound good. Fingerpicking a classical, always some ambiguous jazzy chord
That's so cool!
One of the BEST pickers I've ever seen. Saw her first on the picking channel: Troy Grady.
Molly! So good....Perfection!
Good golly miss Molly! That was great !
Super lesson!!
when played fast it really makes very interesting sound. thank you
Very cool thank you!
Such a great player.
Thank you Molly . I've learned a lot from you..
Not the same, but a lot like Mother Maybelle Carter's style. She was amazing. I love to show her playing style to my son. A great teaching tool to up and coming players. This was really good too, I will show this vid to him, he will love it
I like the style when you tune to open D and capo up to G. Then end your “bum-dity” with index finger up pick on 1st string instead of a thumb note. The 1st string becomes the short/high G string on a banjo and strings 2-5 are tuned open G similar to a banjo. From there you can change 2-4 to any banjo tuning you like.
A lesson I understood and can put to use. Thanks.
Still awesome! I picked up claw hammer banjo over the past year, and am much more of a roots guitar player. This is a very cool style with lots of possibilities.
My advice (I didn’t come up with this): any time your lost in the pattern (typically bum ditty, but there’s more comin’!), just slow it down to a crawl (even 60-70 bpm) and regain your control, then slowly work it back up to your target. Many patterns sound like nothing until you get it going faster. Then it magically reveals its nature. Real magic!! It’s a fantastic moment of victory!
A metronome is your friend.
That. Was. Awesome!
That is amazing
JUSTIFIED! I'm hooked! Will try!
Love Molly Tuttle!
So very very brilliant Angel!
You can almost hear the ladder of angels coming down at 4:09. Thank you for this video!!!
this is so freakin cool! i had heard of clawhammer, but thought it was just the way some people pluck the strings when playing a rolling fingerstyle. life changing. thank u MOLLY! learned about a new tuning too.
Mike, there's a different style that Europeans call clawhammer that's more like Travis picking. I think Mark Knopfler has a CZcams video demonstrating that technique.
@@marcperdue9975 thanks! i'll have to check it out sometime.
Oh yeah. That's getting learned. Thank you
Apparently I've been playi g claw hammer guitar for a while. Great lesson ty Molly
Awesome, I want to learn this too!
FANTSTIC!!....as a resident of Appalachia, and forever hearing these songs, and the claw hammer technique (grampa called it 'holler strummin'..." its great to see you teaching this.....unfortunately I didn't have enough sense or patience to learn all my people had to teach before they were all gone....I didn't start playing until last year and I'm 47...lol....better late than never.....i wish I would have sat with "paw-paw" as we all called him, and learned all he knew as far as musical instruments went....he could play anything ....literally.....he would throw his fiddle to his wife (ga-ga) and she would throw him his trusty hand saw (which as a Carpenter was always razor sharp) he would then substitute the fiddle with the saw, bending the blade he held in between thumb and fingers, holding the handle with his foot, he would stoke the fiddle bow on the opposite side of the teeth of the saw, making a beautiful haunting sound, one he could nurse the melody from any song he chose, sometimes only hearing once.....that generation....they as a group are indescribable in their resilience and patience.....genuine treasures...i miss him....thank you for recalling those memories for me....
Cool technique! I will give it a try. I love Doc Watson's Little Sadie great song!
Great lesson this style is new to me I"m going to learn it. It sounds good,thank you.
Very informative. And educational. I will definitely practice this. Thnx. 👍
