This is the ultimate course in Jorma Kaukonen’s unique and influential blues and country guitar fingerpicking style, filled with invaluable wisdom, advice and techniques for learning pickers at all levels. Jorma gears this material to players who have little knowledge of the fingerpicking basics while skillfully engaging more experienced guitarists as well.

You’ll learn five traditional and original songs, each one becoming a springboard for important musical information that will be applicable to any songs you want to play. Jorma teaches at a leisurely pace, taking care to point out all the possible variations that will enable you to make each song your own.

Reviewing the chord positions needed for each song, Jorma slows them down phrase-by-phrase so that almost anyone will be able to play the piece with a little practice. He discusses his alternate bass thumb work, and adds runs, bends, double-stops, bass walk-ups, blues licks, turnarounds, endings and ornamental notes to enhance your fingerpicking and blues arrangements.

In addition to the instructional material, these sessions feature a dynamic “live” performance of each song by Jorma and his touring partner Barry Mitterhoff. They include much-requested tunes “I’ll Let You Know Before I Leave,” “Trouble in Mind,” “Tom Cat Blues,” “Genesis” and “Vampire Women.”

Learning guitar notes is one of those things that beginning guitar players get a little freaked out about, however there is really no need to be frightened of the notes, as they are really quite easy to memorize once you get the system down. Oh, yes, indeed their is a method to learning all of the notes of the guitar. First of all, guitars have something called frets, and just in case you aren’t sure what that is, its basically a spacing between two pieces of fret wire. The space in between the wire is called a fret, but this is also where the note will be produced. If you look at a guitar, it has many of these areas, going from left to right, up the fretboard of your guitar neck. Starting from the very first one, you can count out all the notes to yourself until you have them memorized. This doesn’t take very long to do, as to learn guitar notes is no different that memorizing your ABC’s as a child. You can find a neck diagram that shows you how to learn guitar notes out of an instructional book, or online even, and once you understand the process of how the frets run, its really easy to teach yourself to learn guitar notes. Another great method that I recommend is very similar, but the only difference is that the guitar notes are multi colored. I personally feel that this makes the process of digesting the information a lot easier and happen faster. So, for instance, all C notes would appear blue, F’s Red, etc. There are plenty of charts like this out there in books or on the internet, or you can color in the notes after you print one off, or if you’re really ambitious, you can create a chart of your own completely from scratch. If you want to find the easiest method to learn and master guitar, affordable online instruction is your best bet to learn guitar notes. Don’t be fooled into thinking that its alway expensive. In fact, in most cases you can get a full guitar education for the cost of one to two guitar lessons.
