Chord Breakout
We're working with the CAGED chord positions to show you how to start breaking out of the first 3 or 4 frets of the guitar and create a far more expansive fingerstyle piece!

Celtic King
It unit 2 we're taking a big swing to a completely different style, with an overarching aim to massively improve your legato playing.

Ode To Tommy
In this unit we put everything that we've learnt together in an "Ode to Tommy" referring of course to Tommy Emmanuel.
Welcome to our Acoustic Fingerstyle Level 3 course! Thomas is back to take you on the final leg of our epic journey to fingerstyle greatness. With the completion of Level 1 & 2 you will have the core concepts truly under your belt, and this course is where we really start to dive into the fun stuff!

Acoustic fingerstyle is like playing piano on the guitar. This is far more expansive!

“
Our fantastic tutor Thomas has spent a guitar playing lifetime honing his acoustic fingerstyle sills, and in this series he has been taking you through from foundations to more intermediate techniques. This course takes those ideas to the top level, encouraging a broader view of the instrument beyond scales and chords. Inspired by John Mayer and Tommy Emmanuel's fingerstyle mastery, we demonstrate how the guitar's potential is limitless! This course condenses Thomas' lifelong journey, to accelerate your learning, refine the techniques we covered in previous courses, and foster musical freedom. Thomas also introduces some new concepts like legato, Travis picking, and creative experimentation, giving you full freedom of expression on the acoustic guitar!
