hey all, been a little while since i've been on here. done a lot guitar growin and explorin on my own, but i found one thing i would like to have some input on. i've been getting into the country dead, grisman/garcia, nrps, along with those jerry and sara garcia tunes. ive been getting into them even more than usual lately :lol: im not sure what im asking, i guess if you all have any tips , tricks, nuggets of knowledge or other inspirations in this style of music; this is a pretty open disussion i guess. i have been having a little trouble getting the rhythm locked down along with all those other little licks/accents that make country/bluegrass so awesome. love to hear back , thanks!

Focus on your major/minor pentatonics, and arpeggios. Pay close attention to how they fit inside the chord shape. Thats the best advice i could give you. I'm sure others will chime in.
