Default Here's some archtop tone!

I love this group, the Quebe Sisters Band. Great singing and violin playing, their guitarist, Joey McKenzie just rounds it out with amazing rhythm playing (a modern day Homer Haynes). Enjoy

I have been a fan of the Quebe Sisters since they first came on the (my) scene several years ago. I saw them up close as a side stage band at the Bristol Tenn/Va fall festival ... His Rhythm comping is as good as it gets.

He is working up the neck in comping shapes but here is a link to the basic chord progression. There is a transpose tool on the right if you want it in a different key.

There are lots of good books and instructional vids on Texas swing style guitar. I used to hear these kinds of progressions called "sock chords." Here's a book to get you started:
