Song: Love, Love, Love Artist: Tristan Prettyman Album: Twentythree Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfyHjOcbL9s (Song starts at 2:50) Author: Marianne V. (mariannemvelasco@gmail.com) Here’s my attempt at tabbing out the fingerpicking/strumming technique that TP uses. It isn’t complicated once you get the hang of it; plus, it’s the same pattern throughout the entire song. (See my video above for reference...sorry the audio is a little off!)
