Pro Picker Case Studies let us take a tour through the musical minds of some of my pickin' heroes! I want to know what makes them tick, what makes them choose that note, and the theory behind the tasty things they create. Tony Wray is a picker's picker–he's played with all the big stars and is now creative director for Pinecastle Records. To me, it doesn't get any better than Tony. Don't forget to download the tab to a song he wrote exclusively for my site titled "Ben's Jig", and check out the guitar portion of the case study as well!

Recording yourself is humbling but it's the fastest fix I've found.

I had that exact problem. Turned out my thumb was anchoring in the wrong spot.

Memorization comes from playing it at a tempo you can think at. If you need the tab, you're playing it faster than you know it.
