Swinging a nine pound hammer all day guitar chords

Nine Pound Hammer is a great Bluegrass tune that sounds incredible with both Fingerstyle and Flatpicking guitar methods. This version is one that Tony Rice plays in his opening break on the YouTube video that is shown below. Tony plays this song in the key of A Major but he is using a capo on the 2nd Fret. So while actually playing in G Major the capo brings the tuning up 2 half steps into the key of A Major. Nine Pound Hammer has always been a favorite of many guitar players because of the blues type opportunities you have in arranging this song. I think what really propelled this song into the flatpicking arrangement was an arrangement that was played by Clarence White, back in his Bluegrass Flatpicking days.

Merle Travis was born in and raised in the coal-mining county of Muhlenberg County, Kentucky, an area that would eventually inspire many of his most memorable original songs. The son of a coal miner whose family lived on the brink of poverty, Travis began playing five-string banjo as a child and switched to his older brother's homemade guitar at the age of Travis became enamored by black guitarists such as Blind Blake, the foremost ragtime and blues guitarist of the late s and early s, and the Western Kentucky finger picking traditions of guitarist, Arnold Shultz, who had taught the style to several local musicians, including Mose Rager and Ike Everly father of the Everly Brothers , neighbors of the Travis family. The technique utilized a thumb and index finger-picking method, creating a soloing style that blended lead lines and rhythmic bass patterns picked or strummed by using a thumb pick. Ranger and Everly passed on this unique picking style to the teenage Travis, who soon grew astonishingly proficient at it, applying it to an early repertoire of blues, ragtime, and popular songs.
