I would think you could pick up a few useable tips from Arlen Roth; http://www2.gibson.com/Lessons/Arlen-Roth-Lessons.aspx

BanjoBen Clark's video series on Guitar Rhythm is really good imo. You have to join to see the whole session tho. The series of about 8 videos breaks down a bluegrass style rhythm that works nice slowed down or sped up. I took a month membership for $20 while first learning to play mandolin and spent most of my time on the guitar rhythm bit.

For me it was an easy and effective way to learn something I've always struggled with. Took me about 2 weeks and an hour or so a day to get it down. YMMV

You spent less than a week looking at all the on line lessons and you still don't get it?


How many "country rhythms" do you think there are?
