What You’ll Master:

The "Keef" Connection: Unlock the secrets of  percussive syncopation, and the art of the "weaving" guitar style that defines The Rolling Stones. The Chuck Berry Blueprint: Master the double-stops, rhythmic slides, and the relentless 8th-note drive that laid the foundation for every rock guitarist who followed. Townshend’s Power & Flair: Go beyond the windmill. Learn a cool Pete aggressive suspended chord voicing, an open string rhythmic "stabs," and how to use space as an instrument. The New Orleans " Sloppy Joe" Groove: Head down to the Crescent City to learn the syncopated, "behind the beat" feel that blends blues, brass bands, and funk. Swamp Funk Fundamentals: Get greasy with the dark, tremolo-soaked rhythms of the Louisiana bayou—focusing on minimalism, grit, and the deep pocket.
