TRUEFIRE.COM COURSE RELEASE

First off, I’m happy to announce the birth my premier bouncing baby instructional course for Truefire.com. This one is on creative rhythm guitar which includes a left brain section on chord scales and tools, and then moves quickly onward to the fun right brain section of rhythmic creativity. The course takes you through a ton of different rhythmic techniques and styles including rhythmic tapping. There are also a pile of jam tracks included for you. You have a choice of a download or download plus physical disc. You can get more info and check out samples here: http://truefire.com/rock-guitar-lessons/rock-sauce-rhythm/

Last week, I recorded a follow up to that course, on soloing. It will come out probably in the spring of 2014.
