Explore the double skunk reggae technique by muting chords in a staccato rhythm, using down-up patterns and off-beat muted strums across two chords.
Master an all-percussive strum in a major key using the one-four-five progression (I-IV-V) for intro, verse, and chorus, with muted strums and relaxed finger technique.
The acoustic guitar is a beautiful instrument but equally challenging to learn and grow from a beginning level to an advanced level. After a few years of teaching a number of students, I have developed a technique of training that has proved to be effective in nurturing beginning players into advanced acoustic guitarists.
In this course, I will introduce you to playing in different genres of music including reggae, country, soft rock. We have also included practical song examples to help you apply the concepts covered appropriately.
Students taking this course should at least have foundational guitar playing skills to be able to understand these advanced concepts. The teaching style is simple and clear to help you move along smoothly from one lesson to the next.
