One of the many ways Chet Atkins inspired me was through his (incredible) approach to classical pieces. Here is my humble attempt at the Choros #1 by Villa-Lobos. I recorded the audio, then played along to a video the best I could. Thanks for watching.

Thank you so much Roger! I love this guitar. It is a Cordoba 55FCE. It's made in Spain and I got a 'blem' (cosmetic only) for just over half price. The electronics really work well, 'Prefix Pro Blend' with the undersaddle and mic combo. I don't care for the mic, so have it turned way down. The electronics are made in the U.S.A. I just made a direct recording and added some reverb and a (small) bit of eq.
