This superb DVD includes a selection of easy to absorb lessons that are designed to teach the beginner guitarist some of the essential basics of Fingerstyle Acoustic guitar playing.

The beauty of playing fingerstyle is, that it allows the guitarist to play a melody and a bass line at the same time, making the guitar sound like a complete instrument much like the way a piano does.

Lessons include:

• Essential acoustic fingerstyle techniques including how to use a thumbpick
• ‘inside-out’ picking
• ‘outside in’ picking
• the chord ‘pinch’
• syncopation
• chord progressions and picking patterns
• applying patterns to blues playing
• using a capo
