Thankyou Kirk!! I can't tell you how long I have been trying to find out how to pick with my right hand so I didn't sound like a complete dork (years) Recording on tape and then slowing down the speed, endlessly trying to hear exactly what was going on - all without success......not any more! I found this lesson and voila! It was a real challenge to get the rhythm right (thank goodness for the half speed demo) and now I see light at the end of several tunnels. This sight really is fantastic - thankyou thankyou!
Of course, I meant 'this site' and not 'this sight' is fantastic, but the typo works well too. The only problem......so much to practice and so little time......Thanks again.
I'm also the author of
PlaneTalk - The Truly Totally Different Guitar Instruction Book. The
lesson that this book, slide-rule and DVD teach is the
most powerful of all: the 'trick' to seeing the entire fretboard as
friendly, familiar territory. If you're beyond the beginner stage -- you
know your chords, scales, maybe even modes -- but you're still wondering how
to turn it all into music, how to invent and improvise, how to access all the bits and pieces, then this is the
book for you. You will also be able to join the private PlaneTalkers'
Forum and discuss the simple visualization technique with me and many
others. - Read more here .
Testimonials
An instructor friend of mine was used to watching me play everthing in first position or power chords. You should have seen the look on his face when I was suddenly playing variations all over the fretboard! Thanks Kirk! Your book is everything you say it is.
