includedClass Experience
*Coupons available after completion to enroll into Guitar Building Blocks 3 Guitar Building Blocks 2 is a continuation of part 1, but it's also a great starting point if you already have some basic understanding of the guitar. This course focuses on expanding your practice arsenal with more riffs while introducing the fundamentals of power chords. Students will explore single-note riffs from popular songs, honing their technique and timing. The first two lessons will emphasize creating and mastering single-note riffs, allowing learners to develop their unique style and confidence. The latter half of the course will transition into power chords, where students will learn the basics of these versatile chords and how to incorporate them into their playing. Each lesson will demonstrate how to do the new skill and how to practice it. I will also supply the sheet music needed. Learners will be able to ask questions through out the course. I will also give a review/feedback on any audio or video of them playing.
