[@ChrisHenryVideos]

Mighty kind, Dave! May you find copious quantities in sustainable supply!

[@tonyschmieg5269]

Very nice explanation! Thanks.

[@ChrisHenryVideos]

glad you connected Tony! :)

[@andyszpekman5205]

I always get so much out of your videos. And I love the reminders about things we should be practicing, like scales in triplets, sixteenth notes, etc.

[@ChrisHenryVideos]

I am so glad you do Andy!! I always appreciate you leaving kind comments talking about what you’re connecting with. 😀🎶

[@gregfury]

This is one of the best videos that you have done! Not just the explanation of the different techniques, but execution and tone of the example material.

[@ChrisHenryVideos]

Thank you Greg! I appreciate your comments a lot. 😀 🎶

[@kelleymandolins6519]

"Onced again" I love it! I moved from NC to Ohio a few years ago and everyday someone asks where I'm from cause I don't sound like them😁

[@ChrisHenryVideos]

😀 you know!!

[@millerjeff]

Thank you for breaking all of this down. This slide with tremolo was just what I was looking for. Appreciate you counting off also very helpful when learning a new technique.

[@ChrisHenryVideos]

So welcome! Thanks a lot for the kind comments Jeff 😀🎶

[@ri-khasitourism4601]

[@ChrisHenryVideos]

I appreciate that a lot bro! Coming from an expert tremoloer yourself 😀

[@battlehrfred]

okwow, now this is interesting !ty

[@ChrisHenryVideos]

Very welcome!!

What are some examples of recordings that use the sextuplet tremolo? I’d love to hear that in context.

[@ChrisHenryVideos]

Excellent question - I’ll have a think and maybe poke around a little bit and see what I can find.

[@ChrisHenryVideos]

I reckon the person I've heard do it the most (and very tastefully) is Ronnie McCoury - nice example here at about one minute 17 seconds in the link below on his break on "Make Room for the Blues". Sometimes he might put a little dash of 32nd notes at the ends of lines, but there are some prominent sextuplets here. It's can be a bit more relaxed than 32nd notes. Hope this helps! czcams.com/video/WJCep0mxO8I/video.html

[@ChrisHenryVideos]

also one minute eighteen seconds on "On the Lonesome Wind" czcams.com/video/iCzC0ZHgrak/video.html

[@davidzelonka9739]

Thanks! I find it interesting that both of those songs clock around 100-110bpm. Do have particular tempos where you tend to switch gears to a different subdivision?

[@ChrisHenryVideos]

@@davidzelonka9739 excellent question - there does seem to be a sweet spot there that invites the slower tremolo (opposed to 32nd notes, or playing 16th notes with downstrokes over 100bpm). I would say that would probably the an ideal tempo range for sextuplets. Excellent observation.

[@jarslanian]

Great lesson Chris but.....i normally use a pretty hard pick, should I consider using a softer one fir songs with tremolo?

[@ChrisHenryVideos]

A thinner/softer pick can help go through the strings more easily, I’d suggest trying a lot of different ones. Not necessarily one best pick for all purposes.

[@jarslanian]

Thanks Christopher. Love your channel. (From Johnny in Liverpool )
