Tutorial, 7 Rockabilly Boogie Guitar Carl Perkins Style part 2 Jez Quayle

In this video I teach more of the boogie guitar technique Carl Perkins used to accompany himself when singing his rockabilly classics Blues Suede Shoes, Boppin the Blues, Gone Gone Gone, etc. Carl not only used this technique when playing his own compositions, but also when covering other artists rock n roll songs. The riffs and licks I present here sound great on both acoustic and electric guitar.
