๐Ÿ’ฌ LESSON DESCRIPTION:

I have a fingerpicking guitar lesson for you today.

In this video, I go over the top 4 fingerstyle guitar techniques and how to practice them strategically and methodically.

The four fingerstyle guitar techniques I cover are:

1. Accuracy

2. Independence

3. Speed

4. Transitions

This is the first video in a three-part workshop series.

Part 2 next week will cover improvising melodies while fingerpicking.

Part 3 the following week will go over arranging songs for fingerstyle guitar.

After that I have some exciting lessons coming your way on harmonizing in 3rds, Coltrane scale patterns, my favorite guitar books, and more—many of them with useful resources included.

Thanks for watching!

Hope you’re having a good week. :)
