Neo Soul Acoustic Guitar
Learn R&B and Neo-Soul on acoustic guitar! We'll cover chord positions, embellishments, chord extensions, fingerpicking patterns, percussions, chord progressions and more. We'll unlock the fretboard to make sure you understand the music theory behind each and every chord progression and song you'll play (keys and chord number analysis). Join me in this weekly class and 9/11/13 chords, R&B feel and hammer-ons will become your bread and butter!

Who you are
Early intermediate players are the perfect fit for the class.
However, if you're a beginner familiar with bar chords and some 7th chords you will be able to follow the lessons as well.
If you're a more experienced player willing to review the music theory behind chord progressions and maybe approach the R&B Neo-Soul vibe on acoustic guitar, this class could be excellent!
What to bring
An acoustic guitar would be ideal, but nylon strings or electric guitars will work too.
Make sure to tune the guitar before the class and be prepared to take notes!
