  • Hello GMC!

    Welcome to my new lesson!
    This is my original song that I wrote 5 years ago it's called "Wild Things". This lesson will help you to develop dynamics and will improve your finger picking!
    It took me a while to figure out how to play fingerstyle guitar and this song has been created as my attempt to imitate bluegrass picking mixed with ballad feel.

    Tempo: 70 BPM

    Gear:
    Tom Anderson Telecaster
    Ugly Amps - Ugly 18
    ZMG - Aspid Drive
    Waves plugins
    Apogee ensemble

    When you are practicing this lesson make sure to use a metronome and learn it at a slow tempo first! This way you will have a full control over your dynamics and will achieve the best results.

    I hope you guys will enjoy this lesson and will learn a lot about fingerstyle and dynamics!
