The Claw - By Jerry Reed - Fingerstyle Guitar Cover

Cover of the popular guitar piece ‘The Claw’ written by Jerry Reed, a favourite of country fingerstyle players. Jerry wrote some amazing solo guitar pieces, like this one, predominately played on nylon string guitar. I’ve added my own improv solo section here, but otherwise stuck to the structure of the original recording (released in 1967).

Wow!

[@Bobby_Chariot]

Amazed job. Not only is your technique and ability amazing - but you also play with all the energy and joy, which is often absent from other players, who only focus on the technical aspect. Really well done 👍🏻 👌🏻😎

Thanks! Me too. He was a real innovator!

[@dmitry.skripnikov]

The fact that you play it with bare thumb is insane! And the improv on 0:58 is tasty!

[@TRGuitar]

Thank you! Always thought about using a thumb pick but never got round to adapting to it! 🤣 cheers for the support 🍻
