Roots Guitar Workshop with Doug Cox

July 30, 2019 - August 2, 2019

An Intro to Roots Guitar Workshop with Doug Cox (Americana, Country, Blues, Bluegrass and Beyond).

Doug Cox will be teaching his ‘Intro to Roots Guitar’ Class that features loads of fun learning techniques and skills on the acoustic guitar. Topics we will touch on will include;
– 5 things you can do with your right hand (this includes intros to flat-picking, bass thumping, alternate thumb, brush stroke & string grabbing. We will be learning at least one song that features each of these techniques)
– Intro to Open Tunings
– Intro to Slide Guitar
– Ear Training
– Chord Shapes & Theory
– Rhythm Guitar
– Understanding the Guitar Neck
– Intro to Melodic lead playing.
The focus of this class will be to have a good time while learning more about roots music and your musical self. Less talking and more playing! Students should be able to play through their basic chords fast enough to get through a song in order to be comfortable.
