For the less than novice player?

[Gdjjr]

I used a question mark because my skill level at paying is near zero.

As some are aware, I'm about to be the proud owner of a Gretsch 5420- I'd like to do it a small amount of justice before I leave the building-

What recommendations do any of you have for publications that will help someone as inexperienced as I in learning the Rock-A-Billy style playing-

I just posted this in another thread- his playing, is to me, a pinnacle of that style.

Guess I'll reply to myself-

You tube- though I'm not a fan of lessons in that format (or zoom or skype, etc)
it is free-

From the first lesson I've learned- I have a long way to go

[Gdjjr]

Funny thing happened an the way to finding how to play in this style-

They're British!

If you love Chuck there's a good movie called "Hail! Hail! Rock 'n' Roll"
I recommend.
