Fettuccini Western By Mason Williams - Digital Guitar Tab

This is a fun classical/finger style piece, especially for someone like me who grew up on the old Clint Eastwood spaghetti western movies. It definitely evokes the feeling (and memories) of the final gunfight scene, which is exactly what Mason Williams was after. I rated it as intermediately difficult, not so much because it is overly complicated, but because of the number of bar cords that it requires and the trills that must be executed using the pinky finger. I actually tried to learn this piece when I first started playing the guitar but just didn’t have the coordination or hand strength at the time; however, after a few years of building my chops I nailed it in a weekend. If you like Mason Williams’ music and you like Clint Eastwood’s movies you are going to love playing this tune.
