to learn. I'm not talking about Freebird and shit like that. Fingerpicking stuff would be cool, but not classical. Folk sounding stuff is cool. Also anything like Led Zeppelin - Over the Hills and Far Away would rule.

I got a new acoustic, a Taylor model 110. That's basically the cheapest they had but it still sounds great

you may not like them but metallica's nothing else matters is a good slow song to learn fingerpicking to.

Yeah I know that song already.

Another good one is Can't You See by The Marshall Tucker Band. It's basically just one riff the whole song, and it helped me with finger picking quite a bit

pray for the locust by down

"Dust in the Wind" by Kansas
"Classical Gas"
"Tears in Heaven" Eric Clapton (it's not normal fingerpicking, but still an awesome song)

guitar trio has a version of classical gas i think, nice song.

there was this acoustic song by dredge that was pretty good, but it had a long ass song name about the arctic i cant remember right now.

Ohhh yeahh I need to learn Dust in the Wind!

There's all kinds of awesome acoustic shit I don't know of, but I'd love to learn so I can learn the style. Like I said the acoustic part of Over the Hills and Far Away is fucking AWESOME. I'd love to find a whole song like that

Try some of the Dissection acoustic things. Crimson Towers

also, "Mood for a Day" by Steve Howe of Yes. Amazing instrumental piece.

Dax Riggs' solo stuff.

You may already know these; Stone The Crow (acoustic ver.), Where I'm Going and Jail.

My Friends by RHCP. Hurt by NIN. Nirvana's Unplugged cd. AIC's Sap ep. I know you said no classical but Desolate Ways by Morbid Angel is pretty cool and not hard to play. The intro to Beneath the Remains.

www.powertabs.net, search for the songs you want

i know at least 100 classical songs you dont have a classical but ill say anyways

roland dyens-tango en skai
vincenzo galilei-salterello

if you cant find any ill scan them onto the computer from my classical book. i hope you can read music

ooooooh yeah

and songs like "bones of babydolls" and "scream of the butterfly" and "dead girl" by Acid Bath.

acoustic medly by in flames

You all need to broaden your horizons.

This guy I work with is an awesome acoustic player. He plays all kinds of shit that I've never heard of. Not popular artists or anything. They might be traditional songs for all I know. I'm going to get these pieces from him and post them here to enlighten you fuckwads.

Allman Bros. band - midnight rider

well I didn't know exactly what all you were looking for, so I didn't name anything that you probably hadn't heard of.

Norman Blake has some fantastic stuff. He also plays mandolin and banjo; it's kinda bluegrass/folk kinda stuff. The stuff on acoustic guitar is sometimes fingerpicked and sometimes flatpicked.

Your suggestions > everyone elses

Prodigal Son - Iron Maiden

neil youngs guitar playing is great, and it isn't hard to pick up. also gordon lightfoot is another great folk guitarist but some of his better songs are kind of hard

Opeth - Patterns in the Ivy

Opeth -patterns in the ivy or benighted

in flames - paller anders visa

most of freidmans second solo album

morgbite wrote:in flames - paller anders visa

I'm learning that right now.

Doesn't have any fingerpicking though.

Opeth - Benighted (I don't listen to them, I just happen to know that song, so don't bitch at me)

Hey Izzy! You should try to learn this song! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1PiHsS8LP8

crimson towers by dissection

been playng all day on the guitar. although, it's mainly malevolent creation and suffocation type riffs... rock on. i've always liked jamming anything that john frusciante writes rhcp/solo stuff... I could have lied is a funny little jam riff...scream of the butterfly acid bath, but super easy.
