Playing Through The Blues is for
those of you who already have basic guitar skills. For example those of
you who know how to play bar chords and can keep in time. This program
is designed to be an easy to use, no frills, basics of blues guitar
program.
What is most striking, is the simplicity of his lessons. It only
tackles one or two elements at a time during each lesson thereby making
it really easy to assimilate the info. One of the things I really
struggled with early in my own playing in regards to blues single
string theory, was when to use the minor blues or the major blues scale
while soloing. Chapter ten of Griff's book, goes into this issue and
demonstrates it really well.
So the question you're asking
yourself, what's in it? Playing through the Blues comes with a 50 page
book full of all kinds of useful tips and tricks not only for playing
the guitar in general, but covering all the basics to playing blues
guitar. Each lesson is accompanied by an audio and/or video file that
you download when ready and if you can't read music, the book includes
TAB, but standard notation is also used in all of the examples.
Playing through the Blues also comes with a introduction video on how
to use the different files and formats, and how to get the best use out
of the audio and video available. If you are fairly computer savvy, you
probably won't need it, but for newbies, it's a good place to start.
Also included: Over 65 minutes of
solid, broken down blues theory video lessons. 20 bonus "turnarounds"
with easy to understand ending licks, 10 jam tracks, including chord
charts, and my favorite, "Lessons from the masters".
Playing Through The Blues by Griff Hamlin will give you all the single
string theory fundamentals to Playing Blues Guitar. Today, guitar
lessons range from $25.00 to $100.00 per hour. For the price of one
private lesson, you can have a life time of access to everything you
need to get started Playing Blues Guitar.
