I really enjoy Amazing Grace. Could you put together some other nice melody tunes like that. It's a good way to learn where the notes are. thanks.
The first Slide Workshop, The Essentials is ready to go. This series of workshops is primarily for 4 string players although 3 stringers will find plenty in this first one as well.
Hi Patrick, Hi Everybody,
The 4 string Fingerstyle Workshop is ready to go and can be found in 3 parts on the Workshops Page. Again it starts with the basics and extends on to more advanced exercises and songs. This one will particularly suit people wanting to play traditional fingerstyle blues. You'll need to have done at least the first few lessons of the the 4 string course as this one only covers right hand technique. The Slide Workshop is next.
For 4 stringers who are waiting for the upcoming fingerpicking and slide resources, here's a quick guide on how to use the relevant 3 string lessons. The fingerpicking workshop is a week or two away.
I'm just about to start work on the Slide workshop. Everything you wanted to know about slide playing with a suite of new technique exercises and fully integerated with songs, tabs and other lessons throughout the site. This is how we roll now folks!!!

I'm often getting requests for some blues turnarounds so here they are. I've just added a short, free ebook that will interest all you 3 stringers, the 4 string version won't be far away. Take the link at the top to the eBooks page.
Blues for RJ presents 5 blues solos in the style of Robert Johnson, the legendary delta blues player. Johnson encountered a variety of musical styles in his famous journey around the southern states. He was a sponge, absorbing everything that he heard and leaving us with 29 songs to document the journey and his all too short life's work.
