Pipeline by The Chantays

Pipeline by The Chantays

In this lesson we will be learning a great first surf rock tune called Pipeline by the Chantays.  The song incorporates much of what we covered in the Surf Rock Basics lesson.  It is in the key of Em and contains a melody line and some palm muted 16th note picking that will be sure to challenge your strum hand!

Song Difficulty: 5
