Here's a quick tutorial of the intro to Pancho Amat's 'La Cleptómana' from his 2008 recording 'Yo Traigo un Son'. This 29 seconds of music is what made me stand up and take notice of Pancho Amat when I first started playing Tres. At the time I was really only listening to very rural Son and Changüí, so this changed my whole perspective on the instrument and what's it's capable of. After that I swapped out my E octave course for a unison pair like Amat.

Pancho Amat tunes like the top three strings of a guitar (GBE) but, for this one I decided to transcribe in standard C (GCE) because most Treseros tune that way.

In the video I'm playing my Mahogany Baby Taylor Tres. For more on that click here: http://youtu.be/vBxZPB9amNA

I transcribe all of the songs for my tutorials myself so I don't have the tablature for any of them.

The string gauges I'm using are:
G10/24 C16/16 E11/11

The song at the end of the video is the classic tune ‘El Reloj De Pastora’ played by the incredible ‘Septeto Trio Los Dos’ who have graciously given me permission to use.
