Dan Tyminski and Ron Block Guitar Techniques 

“The things that are difficult that you tend not to want to do over and over again…do those things.” Words to live by.

These guys are amazing and even more so when one considers that guitar was not their primary instrument. Dan was a mandolin master and didn’t really play guitar until he joined Union Station, and Ron grew up playing banjo. Maybe there is hope for us all if we practice laboriously.

I wanna strum like Dan!!

Thank you for making this video! Definitely helped my playing. So tasteful!!!

I may say this more than once on future videos, but Dan, you da man.Rob, I found you on Pandora singing "He's holding on to me" I'm already becoming a fan. I loved the song, didn't know you were also a guitar stud.Thanks!

RON BLOCK STYLE MAN

I have been playing guitar for a long time and the hardest technique by far for me is holding on to that damn pick! I have tried textured picks and even created my own with tiny rough edged punctures. Any suggestions to improve my pick traction?

"As basic as you would get I'd say..." Yea, basic for YOU. lol My mind doesn't work well enough to jam like this. I must practice!

Yeah Ron that was real simple!!!!🤣🤣

Dans the mans

MARTIN GUITARS...Sounds to strum by...

He said basic Ron,basic

That cross picking is actually insane

Yeah, simple. Easy peasy. Basic as it gets! Not for this clumsy dubber.
