5.0 out of 5 starsCarter-style Guitar taught my Mike Seeger and Janette Carter
By W. Grice on December 6, 2007
Verified Purchase
Excellent source for learning the Carter-style guitar! All of Mike Seeger's instructional videos are exceptional. As far as I know, this is the most complete (any maybe only) guide to this unique style of guitar which was made popular my the late "Mother" Maybelle Carter. Highly recommended! Check out his banjo instructional videos too!

5.0 out of 5 starsVery helpful
By Matthew THomas on January 6, 2015
This DVD is one of the best video guitar lessons around. Seeger teaches all four of Maybelle Carter's styles - thumb-lead or Carter Scratch, country blues style, her slide style, and her flatpick style. He teaches a song in each style (two in the thumb lead style). This gives students the tools they need to decipher Maybelle's playing on other songs in these styles. He also teaches Sara and AP Carter's guitar styles.

Each song is sung and played up to tempo by Mike and Janette. Then Mike will give a little background on the style before breaking the song down into separate phrases for learning. He plays each phrase three times, slowly, before going on the next, and then plays the whole thing together just a little bit faster. This is an excellent way to learn these songs.

Sara and AP's styles are both very simple but are worth knowing, because they're excellent for supporting this kind of music. Seeger teaches these a little differently than Maybelle's styles; there's no melody to learn but he goes over several basic patterns.

Anyone interested in learning how to play Carter style guitar with all its subtleties intact should check out this DVD.

4.0 out of 5 starsGreat and important music
By E. Westbrook on March 20, 2011

If you know who the Carter family were--Mother Maybelle, Sarah and A.P.,("Wildwood Flower" and so much more) then you'll enjoy this "instructional" DVD. --How much actual guitar technique can one learn from a DVD? Guess that's up to you. (Tablature is included on an enclosed booklet)
Maybelle Carter was known for playing the melody leads on the BASS strings of her guitar--a unique but important style. --Most "modern" American guitarists want to do a lot of fancy lead lines up and down the neck on the treble strings. (BB King, Chect Atkins, Eric Clapton and everybody else.)
