    Default Tristan Scroggins Crosspicking Big Mon

    Hey all,

    Just thought this video of Tristan Scroggins doing a version of Big Mon in crosspicking style was rather lovely. It makes it kind of delicate, which is a nice twist.
    Not certain the Facebook link will work, so apologies if it doesn’t work for you.

    Very nice indeed, thanks for sharing! I got the Grana CD this summer and it’s a wonderful example of Tristan’s musicianship, always enjoy his playing. Now off to practice!

    Very nice indeed!! Have struggled with the McReynolds style crosspicking for many years, and never expected that someone would play Big Mon this way. Trying to figure out in what key Tristan is playing? Does anyone know?

    It has been so delightful watching Tristan grow his crosspicking skills day by day on Facebook.

    Awesome.
