In Fingerstyle Kickstarter, we focus on learning how to play chord melodies-the art of playing the melody of a song, while at the same time outlining the bass line and chords. Although chord melodies can sound really impressive and intricate, it's totally within most guitar players' grasp to get the basics down relatively quickly, and to have a lot of fun in the process.
As this book's title suggests, that is what we're aiming to achieve. The transformation we're looking for here is that you'll go from knowing nothing at all about fingerstyle chord melodies (or perhaps, very little), to reaching an intermediate level by the time you've finished the book. In addition, you'll be able to apply the skills gained in the reading of this book for years to come.
Here's What You Get In Fingerstyle Kickstarter:
★ Clear, well-written explanations about the ins and outs of fingerstyle chord melody playing, and how to use your fretting and picking hands properly.
★ 5 levels of fingerstyle chord melodies rom beginner to intermediate, represented by 5 songs (The Blues In E, Happy Birthday, Auld Lang Syne, Amazing Grace, and Greensleeves).
★ Large, easy-to-read TABS and music notation-no squinting required.
★ Detailed practice plans that show you exactly how I'd break each song down into smaller parts and learn them in a step-by-step fashion, in order to get to the end goal: playing them confidently from start to finish.
I'm excited to help you, step by step, to develop the skills you need to play artful, beautiful-sounding fingerstyle chord melodies on the guitar. So if you're ready, let's get started!
