8/3/2004 at 14:58So how does Chet Atkins rate on our scale from 1-5.
In my opinion he was one of the greatest guitarist ever and head
of RCA records. He didn't get the name CGP Certified Guitar Player
for nothing.
The guy could play two songs at the same time. One song on the 321 strings
and another on the 654 strings. Country Jazz,Spanish,Blues and even Rock at
times.
8/3/2004 at 18:52he was insanely good. Sad to see him go.
8/4/2004 at 03:44He's a great guitarist that did it all. I had a chance to meet him about 7
years ago in Tenn. He was a great down to earth guy too.
8/4/2004 at 17:22Never bought his music however every time I would see him on TV playing I
would have to stop and listen.Two thumbs up.Ill give him a 4.5 out of 5.It
would of been 5 out of 5 however I dont normally listen to that type of
music.Excellent guitar player.If he was a good singer he would of really
tore up the music world.
10/23/2004 at 07:59Good old Chet....great player....makes me think of ROY CLARK....
10/23/2004 at 16:51I wouldn't put Roy Clark and Chet Atkins in the same sentence.
Everyone knows my thoughts on OLD ROY :giggly:
12/5/2004 at 21:50he's definatly one of my favourite pickers, I"d give him a 5 out of 5
1/16/2006 at 03:53I'm sure Roy copied alot off of Chet.
10/19/2007 at 23:31Chet is such a bada$$! Not only does his style of playing make him a highly
respected picker, the guitars he uses give him the cool factor! 5/5
