Beyond The Basics The Piedmont Blues
Ramp up your technique with this next step in fingerpicking blues guitar. If you've learned how to fingerpick alternating bass and independent melodies, and want to not only learn new songs but also learn fun variations to add to them, while increasing your technique at the same time, then this course is for you. My whole approach is to go beyond just teaching you the songs. With each song I'll show you how to be creative by providing you with exciting new licks that will give you ideas for endless variations. As a result you'll be a MUCH better player, and probably won't play the song the same way twice!
