  • Hi GMC'ers! I was requested a while ago about the Irish music I was teaching last year and I wanted to add a new lesson focused specificly on the Jig. As I said in my previous Celtic Guitar Lessons, the Jig in a folk dance related to the Irish and Scottish Dance.

    I created this lesson with a main focus: use your right hand. It doesn't matter what chords you're playing, you can create a Jig with almost any chord. The secret is hidden simply with your right hand.

    Tempo:
    130 bpm.

    Scales:
    E minor

    Tuning:
    * Drop D
    * D - A - D - G - B - E
    (From thick to thin string)

    Equipment:
    POD xt (to record) - my presets are on my board ;)

    If you have any questions:
    * Give feedback (upper-right-corner)
    * My Personal Board
    * General Forum

    Stay close!/ Lian
