Melody, bass, groove and power all in one simple technique. Learn to do it. THE POWER OF CLAW DVD, 26 lessons, beginner to super- advanced is available at Amazon and at www.cdbaby.com/... Downloads also available at www.CelticGuitar.com.
Clawhammer is an African-based right hand technique that injects powerful groove (fast, medium or slow) into guitar playing through a simple, repetitive motion. I demonstrate the basic technique and several bells-and-whistles here. It is also great as vocal accompaniment. Thanks for visiting.
Listen to the real Wasilla Weed on iTunes.
"Planted me a little seed,
I thought I'd get a rush or reed.
Instead I got Wasilla Weed.
Now I'm going to go see Sarah."

As a clawhammer banjo player, the algorithm sent me here. I gotta say, you're an entertaining fellow and I imagine a great teacher if I ever picked up a guitar.

"Make sure you breathe. Make sure you're kind to yourself..." LOL. Great teaching.

I love the excitement that Clawhammer guitar is generating. To answer some of the below questions, light and medium gauge strings both work. The tuning here is double D. And yes, the drop thumb is the same as on a banjo. But it is crucial to internalize the Bum Ditty before trying fancy stuff, one of the points my poor students have heard me say a million times. Patience, Grasshopper. The wait is well worth it. Steve Baughman

Being a nerd and a guitar player learning claw hammer I made the correlation of the simplicity and power of lambda calculus with claw hammer. Both are very simple and versatile.

Bonjour, Je suis Français et pratique depuis 30 ans la guitare folk , le banjo et la mandoline bluegrass . Je suis abonné à Peghead Nation aussi . J'apprends le clawhammer depuis deux semaines grâce à vous car votre cours , même bref , est pédagogique . Un grand merci , vous êtes un sacré musicien et je connais bien la fatigue des mains puisque je suis ébéniste alors , le clawhammer est tout indiqué en fin de journée ! bernard

@friendlybanjoatheist5464 3 года назад

Thanks for the kind words, Bernard. Yes, take care of your hands. The right hand should be relaxed during clawhammer. Maybe it's different from carpentry. :-) Have fun.

@twangmeister 12 лет назад

I'm English, have played guitar for over 30 years and I've heard no one here refer to Travis Picking as Clawhammer! Everyone here knows that Clawhammer is a downpicking banjo technique. Also most people in the UK are either pro monarch, or like me just are just apathetic about it - we just don't see advantages in creating more politicians to vote for - it just encourages them! Having said all that this looks like a very cool video and one I'll look to adding to my collection. Nice one Steve!

@ontariobillhillies263 12 лет назад

Awesome video, gotta wait a week for my banjo to come in and came across this, very descriptive, easy to learn, even figured out the harmonic tapping, for those of you who don't know how it's done, tap directly on the fret, 12 frets away from the root note, practice on the 12th fret, once you get that down, put your finger on the third fret of any string and count 12 frets up from that (15th), you can figure it out from there, I never knew it could sound so deadly

A very simple technique, but tricky until it is internalized. Once there, the payoff is huge. But it takes some concentration and repetition to get it in your blood.

Great lesson Steve, flowing and fast with a sense of calm about it. Threw away the pick and finally got a handle on Travis picking 6 months ago, having fun with it but years of being a mechanic has given rise to a touch of the clawhand syndrome. Glad i found this lesson, it'll keep me going. Many thanks

@dannoharlski 5 лет назад

I'm really digging your progressive styles of playing. I'm a long time guitar player and short term banjo player. I switched to banjo because arthritis has limited my ability to hold on to a flat pick. I recently stumbled onto your video covering the California roll. Cool stuff, maybe a bit advanced for me but I'm definitely getting it. This video along with a couple videos I've seen of Molly Tuttle using the clawhammer guitar technique may just save my old Martin from forever languishing in it's case. I can't wait to give this a go! Thank you so much for sharing this amazing guitar style!

@thecelticsession8844 5 лет назад

dannoharlski So sorry to hear about the arthritis. Yes, Banjo was actually much easier on the left hand, and if you’re doing claw hammer you don’t need a whole lot of flexibility in your right hand. I wish you much luck and joy on this journey.

Yup, Molly is doing claw. Stephen Stills had not, but he does cool stuff. Molly is the real clawhammer guitar deal.

@magnusnilsson1398 3 года назад

When i started with clawhammer, I tried to keep a sturdy hand. BIG MISSTAKE! Just try to relax and think of the bum-ditty rythm. It's really a very relaxed way of playing guitar.

Fantastic lesson. One question: when isolating strings, do you use the index finger for every string, or a different finger for the higher strings?

@friendlybanjoatheist5464 8 лет назад

Excellent Question. I use index all the way. Banjo players often use middle, and on the banjo I use both middle and index. But on guitar just index.

@PowerOfClaw 10 лет назад

Terence. Great that you ask about clawhammer SLIDE. I have just begun experimenting with it. I am a rank beginner with slide guitar but I think there may be a fantastic world of sounds to be created here with clawhammer technique. Maybe you can post some clips after you explore? Anyone else? This is a subject of much interest to me. In fact, a few weeks ago I contacted Scott Ainslie to ask about slide clawhammer. (He plays slide guitar and clawhammer banjo.) We will be meeting in North Carolina next month and will see what we come up with. Great question, great subject.

@whynottalklikeapirat 10 лет назад

PowerOfClaw Great video, Just ordered your dvd, I'm really set on getting this. 3 wee questions ;o): 1. When you put your thumb to the E-string, is the string centered in the middle of your thumb or is it off somewhat to either side? Is the thumb "cocked" in advance? 2. As you flick your thumb, is your picking hand as a whole kept completely parallel to the strings or do you rotate slightly as you flick. 3. Is it just the thumb moving slightly outward as you press and release while the picking hand is kept at the same distance to the body of the guitar throughout the entire strumming motion? Details I know, but I'm keen to get my focus right from the outset. Cheers and thanks for sharing, this is just great.

@PowerOfClaw 10 лет назад

Good Qs. 1. The string hits my thumb around the middle, usually. But your call, as long as you get the string :-) Yes, thumb is cocked a bit. 2. I flick my wrist slightly usually, but not always. Your call. 3. Sorry to be non-committal, but this depends on how assertive I am being. On louder pieces I may move my thumb outward more. On slower ones it may be a gentle bounce. Wasilla Weed falls in the more aggressive category. I hope this helps. sb

@whynottalklikeapirat 10 лет назад

PowerOfClaw Sure. Makes a lot of sense. I was able to get a closer look on the dvd as well which helps too. But it was exactly the changing energy at different levels of "assertiveness" which sparked the question, so good call. Thanks a bunch man and thanks for the inspiration.
