Here's a little insight into how I approach learning licks and ideas off of records. Transcribing lines is a great way to add to your vocabulary. You can get the most out of the things you're learning by first, understanding the underlining harmony, and second, taking that idea and applying it to different songs with differen...

Sorry no YouTube lesson this week but I've been a bit under the weather. Also I've been practicing a lot for the up coming 'Nashville Guitar Night' show this Monday night. This is one of the tunes I'll be doing. I though I'd film a little bit of my practice for you all to see. I'm playing it here at a pretty fast tempo trying...

This is and old standard by Fats Waller but the version I'm doing is the Ray Charles arrangement from the the 'After Hours' album. This is an A-A-B-A from and it modulates to the key of Bb in the bridge. Lot's of good changes to sink your teeth into. Enjoy!

Here's a tune I'm working on for the upcoming 'Nashville Guitar Night' concert. I thought I'd throw this up here, mistakes and all, so you can see a bit of my process for learning tunes. There's a lot of changes in this song to keep track of so I usually break it down into smaller chunks to work out ideas. Then I try to conne...

I may have used this backing track already and posted it in a previous post but here it is again. This is one of the backing tracks we recorded for my Truefire course. A straight up 12 bar blues in G. Wes Little played the drums, and Jason Kott is on bass. Dig it!
