Get Ready to Fingerpick!
If you're beyond the basics, you have no trouble playing songs, and you want to learn how to pick with your fingers, this is the course for you!
I get you started with your first fingerpicked song using Tracy Chapman's "Fast Car."
"Fast Car" is perfect for learning to fingerpick because it doesn't use a complicated pattern, you could play it using your thumb and just one finger, and there are only a few simple sections needed to complete the whole song.
I provide you with tablature, break down and explain everything, and walk you through the full song step by step.
And this 1-hour video lesson is completely free. So, click the enroll button now and I'll see you inside the course!
