FINGERSTYLE BLUES CAMP 60 Day Fingerstyle Blues Camp "...the best fingerstyle blues instruction on the planet." Brad Wendkos at truefire.com has been working with the Acoustic Guitar Workshop (AGW) for a few years and found their individual lessons were always in TrueFire's top rankings. So Brad encouraged and worked with AGW to produce the 60 Day Fingerstyle Blues Camp. This superb 8 CD tuition collection gives guitar students heaps of insight, skills and a hatfull of the techniques necessary to play authentic Fingerstyle Blues - Delta, Piedmont, Ragtime and Slide. There's nothing sweeter to the ear or more satisfying to play than fingerstyle blues guitar. Pick up that old acoustic, play a few bars of a Muddy Waters tune and watch faces light up immediately. As popular music is rooted to the blues, blues is rooted to the original fingerstyle techniques of pioneers Robert Johnson, Big Bill, Leadbelly, Lightning Hopkins, Blind Lemon and many others. Contemporaries Ry Cooder, John Hammond, Leo Kotke, Keb Mo, Eric Bibb and a truckload of others keep this important art form alive and very well. Since its launch at the beginning of April 2003, AGW's 60 Day Fingerstyle Blues Camp has been embraced enthusiastically by the acoustic guitar community and is rapidly on its way to becoming a milestone in Fingerstyle Blues tuition. Truefire.com have an enviable track record of producing some of the very best guitar tuition material available on the web - over 2000 lessons so far and counting. They present it all in a user-friendly package that gives the guitar student exactly the tools they need to advance their playing fast, logically and economically. The 60 Day Fingerstyle Blues Camp is no exception. Check out AGW and Truefire's 60 Day Fingerstyle Blues Camp in detail by visiting http://truefire.com/agw/agwad.htm Listen to previews of all the lessons and judge for yourself. And if nothing else you'll be able to check out some cutting edge Fingerstyle Blues playing. Bluesingly yours, Steve Elliott, Acoustic Guitar Workshop http://www.acousticguitarworkshop.com |
