We didn't mean to go this deep—but here we are.This week, we cracked open the bass rabbit hole and just kept falling. What started as a casual chat about tracking techniques quickly turned into a full-on audio archaeology dig. Fingerstyle vs. pick. Flatwounds vs. roundwounds. Phase issues. Amp sims. DI regrets. When to tune your bass like it's a vocal. And why the right bass might be a $300 violin-shaped Epiphone that makes your P-Bass sound like a string bean.This is Part 1. Next week, we'll take all this nerdy goodness and show you how it interacts with everything else in the mix—drums, vocals, space, sub, punch, width, grit.Discover:Why we sometimes tune bass like it's a vocalThe $300 Epiphone that destroyed a Fender P-Bass in a shootoutHow adding chorus to bass can actually make it sound tighterThe reason your 808s keep disappearing—and how to fix itFingerstyle, pick, thumb, palm mute: how your hand technique makes the biggest differenceBen and Carl's Weekly Inspiration Playlist - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1IpnxDVoTY44JBV1j19H4h?si=0f80e020d8ae497eLA Wildfire Relief:Musicares - https://donor.musicares.org/page/lafirereliefWAMTN - https://give.wearemovingtheneedle.org/campaign/654724/donateLearn more about StudioLand - https://www.welcometostudioland.com/a/2147995182/bmyFf8p5Download our free guide: "The Future-Proof Mixing Engineer: 8 Essential Skills for 2024 and Beyond" - https://mpe-ebook.benwallick.com/future-proof-mixingConnect with us:Secret Sonics - https://www.instagram.com/secretsonicsBen - https://www.instagram.com/benwallickmusic/Carl - https://www.instagram.com/carlbahner/Learn more:https://www.benwallick.com/https://www.carlbahner.com/This episode with edited by Gavi Kutliroff - https://www.instagram.com/pleasant_peasant_music/

If you want to get started playing acoustic fingerstyle guitar, you will benefit from private lessons with a teacher, online video courses, listening to fingerstyle recordings, and of course… books. It is beneficial to mix and match all of these resources. Remember that everyone's brain works differently, so you may gravitate more towards certain styles of learning / methods of presentation. I love learning from books because I can read the text at my own pace and as many times over as I want. Seeing the music written out is extremely helpful for me – I always had more difficulty keeping track of song forms or chord progressions without some sort of written reference. So, for those of you who want to utilize a fingerstyle guitar method book to beef up your chops, I've done my homework and I've distilled my favorites into this “greatest hits” list. I'll try to be objective and describe who each book is best suited to. Best Beginner Fingerstyle Methods: Alfred's Beginning Fingerstyle Guitar (Lou Manzi): Great all-around book to learn solo fingerstyle guitar. Beginner to intermediate. Not specific to any one subgenre of fingerstyle. Nice organization/flow of information with a decent difficulty progression. Good finger exercises to build some dexterity or to use as warmups, decent explanations in the text (but not too wordy), and nice sounding original tunes. There aren't any arrangements of famous tunes, but there are tunes “in the style of ___.” I personally like working through this book with my students. Additionally, many of this book's lessons have sparked creative ideas of my own. First book in a three part series, so you can continue your studies! Audio recordings are available. Travis-Style Guitar from Scratch (Bruce Emery): This book is a gem! This is a method book for learning to play solo fingerstyle guitar using an alternating bass (in the Travis style). This is one of the best books I've found for complete beginner to intermediate players who want to learn this specific style. Even if you want to play other sub-styles of fingerstyle as well, this isn't a bad place to start your journey. The material progresses logically with lots of exercises that build on each other and lead perfectly into performance pieces (old classics like Oh! Susanna, House of the Rising Sun, Jingle Bells, etc.). Each time Emery presents a new concept, he incorporates it into updated arrangements of each tune. Emery's sense of humor is infused into the text of the book, keeping detailed explanations lighthearted and entertaining without losing sight of the important information. Audio recordings are available. Fingerstyle Guitar from Scratch (Bruce Emery): I don't love it as much as Travis-Style Guitar from Scratch, but it is still great general method book. You will not learn to play solo fingerstyle guitar arrangements (other than a very brief introduction to the topic), but you will receive a great foundation if you are just starting out with fingerstyle. Complete beginner to intermediate. Emery's sense of humor is once again infused into the text of the book, keeping detailed explanations lighthearted and entertaining without losing sight of the important information. The book is focused on fingerstyle accompaniment using arpeggiation and Travis Style / alternating bass patterns. This book would make an excellent primer for either Alfred's Beginning Fingerstyle Guitar or any other fingerstyle guitar method. Audio recordings are available. Hal Leonard's Fingerpicking Guitar (Doug Boduch): Short and sweet method to learn to play accompaniment and solo fingerstyle guitar through famous popular tunes. Beginner to intermediate. Guitar teachers may find this book to be a great teaching supplement. The progression of topics is well laid out, the examples and arrangements are playable and sound good, and the text is concise. This book is great if you just want to play arrangements of popular tun...
For our sixth episode, we speak with guitarist Eric Skye. Based in the Pacific Northwest, Skye occupies a unique niche between folk, jazz and blues; fingerstyle and flatpicking; and composition and improvisation. A lifetime spent pursuing eclectic interests and adventuresome explorations has yielded an instantly recognizable personal style and tone. Our conversation winds its way through a variety of topics including: Letting go of the notion of being a good guitar player; being comfortable being yourself; and letting music be a form of self-expression. We also talk about how duos are the perfect band size for introverts and a lot more.

In der letzten Folge aus der Mozartstadt Salzburg, nimmt ein Ausnahmemusiker am Gastsessel dieses beliebten Podcast Formates Platz. Christoph Mayerhofer, alias Chris May, ist musikalisch im Blues, Country und Folk zu Hause - der Singer/Songwriter spannt seinen musikalischen Bogen von impulsivem Fingerstyle, untermalt von Mundharmonika oder Didgeridoo bis hin zu melodischen Balladen über das Leben, die Liebe und sozialkritische Themen der Gesellschaft. Der Salzburger Gitarrist kreiert mit seinem Fingerpicking- und Slide-Stil sphärische Klänge und erdige Grooves, die an das Organische der Natur erinnern und direkt aus dem pulsierenden Kreislauf des Lebens zu kommen scheinen. In dieser 25igsten Episode spricht Chris May mit Günther und Krauli über die bevorstehende Tour, über sein Leben als Musikmanager auf einem riesigen Kreuzfahrtschiff und natürlich auch über sein privates Leben.

Brent Mason has picked for the biggest and best names in country music: Alan Jackson, Willie Nelson, Shania Twain, Brooks & Dunn, Blake Shelton, and George Strait are just a few of the country stars on whose records you can hear Mason's Fender-on-Fender fretwork. But his solo on “Southbound Train,” the closing track on Travis Tritt's 2000 record Down the Road I Go, might be his hottest work of all. As Mason explains, the song scoots along at his favorite country tempo—a Cajun two-step, Mason says—which provides the rhythmic framework for his face-melter lead. Mason says the melodic and structural components came in part from his familiarity with jazz, and the mixing of jazz and blues with his usual twangy conventions. In fact, Mason's furious note barrages occasionally earned him some raised eyebrows (and some choice words from Conway Twitty) in the more traditionalist Nashville studio system. This might be the toughest solo our host has taken on so far on Shred With Shifty. The key to wrestling it? “You gotta keep playing [it] til you wanna pull out all your teeth and hair,” says Mason. Which Nashville producers and stars would let Mason off-leash in the studio? How does a session ace deal with hand injuries? Listen on, shredders. And if you're brave enough, send in your take on Mason's solo. Click below to subscribe to the podcast!

Is this one of the best or worst method books for acoustic fingerstyle guitar? You can learn to play music by simultaneously using a variety of resources including teachers, online resources, and books. David Hamburger's The Acoustic Guitar Fingerstyle Method is a method book for learning to play solo fingerstyle (or “fingerpicking”) guitar in the American roots styles (folk, blues, ragtime, early jazz, marches). The book becomes progressively more difficult – the early sections of the book are appropriate for beginner fingerstyle players who have some experience with open chords and the later sections of the book are more suitable for intermediate players. Advanced players may still find some useful information, inspiration, or fun repertoire tunes. This is a well-thought-out book with a great progression of information and fun arrangements of tunes. The book focuses on alternating bass (Travis picking) arrangements and steady bass arrangements (monotonic bass, walking bass, etc.). There are also brief chapters on Drop D and open D tuning. The material flows in a sensible progression from chapter to chapter as you build skills and knowledge. Each chapter includes text and playing examples that directly prepare you for a 1-2 page tune that showcases the techniques or concepts being taught. The arrangements of the tunes are really nice (they sound good and are playable), although don't usually include any fingering (there is picking hand fingering notated in the examples, but not the full tunes). The tunes are stylistically similar to those found in Stefan Grossman's “Complete Country Blues Guitar Book” and Mel Bay's “Complete Chet Atkins Guitar Method” although with a very different teaching approach. The book covers a lot of ground in only 74 pages – from beginning Travis Picking to steady bass blues to harmonized walking bass lines to alternate tunings, etc. While the examples and tunes are of high quality, there aren't that many examples for each topic, so you won't get that deep of an understanding of how to apply some concepts to different situations. One example of this is playing walking bass lines under your melody- you'll play a few tunes that include this, but you won't really learn how to build your own walking bass lines so that you can apply them to your own arrangements or compositions. However, by the end of the book, you will have a firm grasp of the general approaches of playing using an alternating bass (Travis Picking) or a steady bass. There is not a lot of music theory in the book. This may appeal to some readers. However, it adds to the issue that you may not be able to apply a concept like walking bass lines to other situations. The text is descriptive and helpful. However, I don't like how the publisher places the text as a continuous block at the top of the page with the examples clumped together at the bottom of the page. Harder for my eyes to jump back and forth. The author includes great listening recommendations that are relevant to the tunes and topics at hand. The included audio (2 CDs) provides all examples and tunes played at full speed and slowed down. The guitar playing is clean and the recording quality is high. All playing examples are provided in standard notation (treble clef) and tablature. You could use either a steel string acoustic or nylon string classical guitar to work through this book. You shouldn't need to fret any bass notes using your thumb over the top. Published by String Letter Publishing (publisher of Acoustic Guitar Magazine) © 2007. Distributed by Hal Leonard.

Is this one of the best or worst method books for fingerstyle guitar? You can learn to play music by simultaneously using a variety of resources including teachers, online resources, and books. Dan Thorpe's Fingerstyle 101 is a method book for learning to play fingerstyle (or “fingerpicking”) guitar. The book is appropriate for absolute beginner fingerstyle players who have some experience with open chords. Intermediate and advanced players will fly through this book and may find a few useful ideas but probably won't find any revelatory information or inspiring performance pieces. The author has written this book with older adult students in mind, although any beginning students would certainly benefit from working through it. The book contains lots of practical advice on fingerpicking technique, playing posture, and strategies for practicing and memorization. It has sections including “Pro Tips to Make Your Fingerpicking Journey Easier and More Enjoyable,” “The 7 Most Deadly Fingerpicking Mistakes,” and “The 10 Steps for Getting the Most Out of Your Fingerpicking Playing.” There is one section of the book (less than half the book) with actual playing examples, and these examples are great first fingerpicking patterns to learn along with some practical applications. There is lots of text in the book. Fortunately, this text is informative without being bland. Lots of lists, summaries, pictures, etc. The text has a large font size so it is easy on the eyes. Thorpe provides advice for avoiding guitar-related injuries – i.e. information about how to hold the guitar in the classical style to help older students avoid back pain. There is some psychology about how to learn efficiently/effectively and how to make and set goals. There is a chord reference guide as well as sections on understanding basic rhythms and reading tablature (TAB). The playing section in the middle of the book progresses at a reasonable pace for a beginner fingerstyle student. Thorpe teaches ten fingerpicking patterns, and for each pattern there are three examples. The first example is as basic as possible over a single chord shape. The second example has you play the pattern over a simple chord progression (always C G D). Since you always utilize the same C G D chord progression, you will be able to focus your brain power on your picking hand and the new pattern. This is also very practical because if you want to fingerpick the guitar while singing, it is useful to try out a pattern over simple chord progressions that you might find in folk or pop songs. Finally, the third example introduces a more complex chord progression, stylistic elements such as hammer-ons and pull-offs, and sometimes a (very simple) moving melody or bass line. These third examples are not long enough to be performance pieces, but they may inspire you to add some flair to your accompaniment fingerpicking or to write your own compositions. The book doesn't progress far enough to establish a specific style within the umbrella of fingerstyle guitar. You learn a few classical arpeggiation patterns, a few Travis picking patterns, and a few patterns that have some folk or blues flair. The book doesn't get into the modern percussive techniques used by modern players like Michael Hedges, Don Ross, Andy McKee, Mike Dawes, etc. No thumb slaps, guitar body percussion, or tapping. All playing examples are provided in standard notation (treble clef) and tablature. Audio recordings are available for all playing examples. You could use either a steel string or nylon string classical guitar to work through this book. Published by Rockstar Publishing © 2015, 2020. Distributed by Hal Leonard.

This week's episode is all about the musical magic of the ‘No Chord Fingerstyle' method and Christmas songs. Today, we are looking at the main reasons why you should learn a couple of Christmas songs and how you can do this. Apart from the wonderful joy and cheer of being able to play a Christmas carol, it's also a great way of measuring your progress each year when Christmas rolls around. It can be hard sometimes to see your progress day-to-day, but dusting off the old Christmas songs is a great way of seeing how far you've come. In today's episode, I talk about what Christmas songs to learn and how to learn them, the benefits of measuring your progress, where to start if you're a beginner, and how to “embellish” your Christmas tunes if you can already play them. I also talk about the histories of some famous Christmas songs, the new course I'm releasing called Christmas Crackers, and I'll play a little medley of the songs in the course for you. To round off the episode, I reveal “The Gatekeeper's” favourite Christmas song, so take a listen to find out which one it is. This episode will help you realise the benefits of tracking your progress, how Christmas carols can help you do this, and where to start if you want to learn some holiday tunes.

Video Podcast and Show Notes: https://ukuleleunderground.com/2023/10/fingerpicking-fingerstyle-chord-melody-oh-my-tuup91/ What is the difference between Fingerpicking, Fingerstyle and Chord Melody? With Fingerpicking being thrown around as a catch-all term, we ask Aldrine what his definition of Fingerpicking is and how is it different from Fingerstyle? The guys go deep with the definitions of these terms, and where the terms may have originated as trends. Wanting to break into ukulele, someone asks Aldrine what size they should start with. Aldrine then gives his list of Do's and Don'ts for Private Lessons. The team explains the New Private Lessons, and the changes to Live Coaching. At the end of the podcast, a Songwriting Challenge Winner is picked.

Michael Grabner is back on the show with a brilliant brand new single called "Off The Path." Michael is an open book and through his music he conveys his life's journey complete with highs and lows. His performances echo this and, because of the intimacy of a live show, give even deeper meaning to his songs.

Miggs Rivera's Fingerstyle Blues is an inspiring, well-graduated method book for learning to play fingerstyle blues. It is aimed at intermediate and advanced fingerstyle players. Each chapter ultimately provides a full performance tune, but starts by describing a new concept or technique (or two) and providing examples that prepare you for the performance song. As advertised, this book is focused entirely on fingerstyle blues with deep dives into various substyles including delta blues (Robert Johnson), boogies (John Lee Hooker), slide blues (Son House), and Texas blues (Lightning Hopkins). There is even a tune that has a modern character with some jazzier chords. I love how in each chapter the book provides technical exercises that directly prepare you for the upcoming performance tune. Often the author will simplify a section of the performance tune and then provide more complexity with each subsequent example. The first chapter of the book presents a somewhat basic 12-bar blues, then provides 5 separate 12-bar variations that each focus on adding a new technique (hammer-on grace notes, slide grace notes, rubato bends, chords fragments, rubato bends on the higher and lower strings), and finally culminates in an all-inclusive performance tune. Mr. Rivera really hit the nail on the head with his teaching approach. The author provides some music theory, but only that which is immediately applicable to an upcoming performance tune. You will spend much more time playing music than analyzing music theory. The book includes access to private/un-searchable YouTube video lessons through QR codes. You will need a cell phone that can pull these up. These videos are extremely helpful as they include explanations and demonstrations by the author. These are particularly useful as they show you the proper rhythms and feel. One thing to note about this book is that it doesn't emphasize improvisation which is a huge part of blues music. However, you could learn about improvisation elsewhere (with a private teacher or with a book like Joseph Alexander's Fingerstyle Blues Guitar) and then implement it into the tunes of this book. Authentic sounding fingerstyle blues tunes. Excellent difficulty graduation – examples build off each other and get gradually more complex and difficult. Cohesive feel throughout the book, especially as the final performance tune pulls from the earlier tunes. Not much emphasis on improvisation. Online video lessons are extremely helpful – difficult rhythms and feel are much easier to learn with the videos. The book does introduce some modern percussive techniques used by modern players like Michael Hedges, Don Ross, Andy McKee, Mike Dawes, etc. You will learn to play thumb slaps and various percussive hits on the guitar body. I would recommend that you use an acoustic steel string or electric guitar. You could use a nylon string classical guitar if absolutely necessary, but I wouldn't recommend it.

You've never heard a tale like that of guitarist Rick Deitrick. A product of the '60s, Rick went from playing the accordion as a kid in Ohio to joining a rock band and performing at love-ins throughout Southern California. Once he found a $100 Yamaha acoustic at a pawn shop, his life took a new turn: He'd take his guitar (sans case) out on hikes and create acoustic instrumentals influenced by his surroundings. The byproduct of these hikes was a series of self-released albums, now reissued as a boxed set by Tompkins Square Records. Quirky backstory aside, it's gorgeous music that has stood the test of time. This interview has it all: 1960s love-ins, a cranky John Fahey, a two-foot-tall chipmunk, a guitar sacrificed in a fit of rage, and a musician who continues to march to the beat of his own drummer.

Welcome to Episode 3 of Life on the Fretboard: A series of face-to-face conversations between British guitarist, writer and filmmaker Michael Watts and exceptionally talented individuals who live a life on the fretboard. For this episode, Michael's guest is the frighteningly gifted Australian fingerstyle guitarist Alan Gogoll, whose gentle, whimsical music is given voice via one of the most intriguing, perplexing and musical techniques developed for the acoustic guitar in recent years...bell harmonics. With an audience that numbers over a million subscribers worldwide and celebrity fans clamoring for the chance to collaborate with him, Alan Gogoll decided to start a new chapter in his life by moving to Berlin for inspiration and a new and calmer state of mind. This podcast was recorded in Alan's apartment - some six weeks after he made this leap of faith. He discusses the joy of luthier-made guitars, those trademark bell harmonics, protecting innovation and creativity from the acceptance of plagiarism in other cultures, the writing process, and how to add other artistic disciplines to a guitar piece...as well as his recent ban from the social media platform TikTok.

You can learn to play music using a variety of resources including teachers, online resources, and books. Hal Leonard's 100 Most Popular Songs for Fingerpicking Guitar is a repertoire book filled with solo fingerstyle guitar arrangements of popular songs from mostly the 1960s through present day. Genres covered include classic and modern rock, pop, folk, jazz, theme songs, Spanish classical, and more. There are songs from the Beatles, Ed Sheeran, Duke Ellington, Metallica, Aerosmith, Imagine Dragons, Bob Marley, Stevie Wonder, etc. Most of the tunes are suitable for intermediate fingerstyle players, although there are some easier tunes for late beginners as well as some tunes that are significantly more difficult. If you are looking to build out your repertoire for local gigs, this book is incredible! Overall, the arrangements are in guitar-friendly keys, they stay below the 5th fret, and they sound good. You can always simplify or add to the arrangements to suit your tastes and skill level. Most tunes are in standard tuning, although there are some tunes that use drop D tuning. Tunes are arranged utilizing a variety of techniques including simple melody and bass, alternating bass, and arpeggiation. The book doesn't get into the modern percussive techniques used by modern players like Michael Hedges, Don Ross, Andy McKee, Mike Dawes, etc. No thumb slaps, guitar body percussion, or tapping. Although this book is a repertoire book and not a method book, there is a single page in the back providing an “Introduction to Fingerstyle,” which is probably worthless to anyone who is attempting to play the tunes in this book. The rest of the book is just filled with song arrangements in alphabetical order, and there is no background information for any of the tunes. The music is presented as a treble clef lead sheet with the main melody and the harmonizing chords written above, and the solo guitar arrangements are presented in treble clef and tablature. Occasional left-hand fingerings are provided. Although this book has great tunes for your gigs, it would be difficult to bring the book to a gig and play from the pages. The book is 430 pages and has a softcover binding, so you need binder clips to hold the pages open. Most tunes require multiple page turns, which is a disaster if you are holding the pages open with binder clips. Your only options would be to photocopy pages or memorize the tunes. For most of the tunes you could use an acoustic steel string or classical nylon string guitar since most arrangements don't require using your fretting hand thumb over the top. Extensive song selection. You are bound to like at least a few of the tunes if you like popular or rock music. Great arrangements that generally feature melody and bass, alternating bass, and/or arpeggiation. Provides treble clef lead sheets (melody with harmonizing chords written above) as well as treble clef and TAB guitar arrangements. Some fretting hand fingering is included, but there isn't any picking hand fingering. Hard to hold pages open, lots of page turns. No audio access. However, arrangements generally sound similar to the original tunes.

You can learn to play music using a variety of resources including teachers, online resources, and books. Joseph Alexander's Fingerstyle Blues Guitar (published by Fundamental Changes) is an excellent book for learning the fundamentals of fingerstyle blues guitar with either a monotonic or alternating bass. While this book does have some beginner friendly material, it will especially resonate with intermediate or advanced players. It is also great for non-fingerstyle blues, rock, or jazz guitarists looking to cross over into fingerstyle blues. The first half of the book is focused on improvising lead melodies over a monotonic bass (mostly E minor pentatonic over an open 6th string), and the second half of the book is focused on blues chord progressions and picking patterns, soloing over blues progressions, turnarounds, bass lines, and two short studies. This book presents lots of licks to teach you how to play over a monotonic bass line. If you haven't ever improvised using pentatonic scales, then you may find yourself just learning and memorizing cool blues licks. If you really want to get the most out of this book, then you need to spend time incorporating the phrases into blues progressions and improvising your own blues phrases over blues progressions. I suggest mastering each example with the monotonic bass (open 6th string) and then playing it over a 12-bar blues progression. For each technique presented in the book, I suggest coming up with your own phrases using that technique – if the book presents examples using slides, then improvise using slides. Then improvise using slides over an entire 12-bar blues progression. A great practical goal would be to play actual blues tunes with some improv in the middle. The second half of the book provides a bunch of accompaniment patterns over the I, IV, and V chords, and it provides some melodies on top of the chords. There is a section on turnarounds, a short section on bass lines, and a final section with two short “studies.” By the time you get through all of this you should have a decent idea of how to play a generic or improvised fingerstyle blues with a variety of feels in the keys of E and G. Aside from the studies, there aren't any actual tunes in this book, but you'll have the tools to learn them from other sources. Authentic fingerstyle blues lines and grooves Good difficulty graduation – examples build off each other and get gradually more complex and difficult. Cohesive feel especially to the first half of the book. No actual fingerstyle blues tunes to learn other than two short studies. Online audio access is really helpful – difficult rhythms and feel are much easier to learn with the audio tracks. No fingerings for right or left hand for much of the book. Chapter 1 and Chapter 7 do have some picking hand fingering. Some examples are difficult to play on an acoustic guitar because of whole step bends. You can always substitute slides for these big bends. The book doesn't get into the modern percussive techniques used by modern players like Michael Hedges, Don Ross, Andy McKee, Mike Dawes, etc. No thumb slaps, guitar body percussion, or tapping. For most of the tunes you could use an acoustic steel string or electric guitar. You could use a nylon string classical guitar if necessary, but I wouldn't recommend it.

Jazz musician Snoozer Quinn (1907 - 1949) is one of the guitar world's great enigmas. In his prime, he performed alongside Paul Whiteman, Bix Beiderbecke, the Dorsey Brothers, Louis Armstrong, and others; lore has it that even Les Paul even learned how to hammer-on and pull-off from Snoozer. But today Snoozer is largely forgotten because his only attempt at solo studio recordings completely disappeared and he died young after a long battle with tuberculosis. To add insult to injury, the only surviving film footage of Snoozer playing guitar has no audio and the only solo recordings we have of him were literally taped from his deathbed. On this week's Fretboard Journal Podcast, we take a look at Snoozer's life and legacy with Katy Hobgood Ray and Dan Sumner, who just co-authored a book entitled Snoozer Quinn: Fingerstyle Jazz Guitar Pioneer (Out of the Past Music). Half of the book features Katy's exhaustive biography on Quinn (one of her distant relatives) with rare photos, while the other half features Dan's transcriptions of eight Snoozer Quinn arrangements. Over the course of our interview, we learn about Snoozer's troubled life, how he got his name, his reputation among his peers, his Gibson instruments, and more. Then Dan sheds light on the Herculean task of transcribing the complex work of Snoozer from the available fragments and breadcrumbs, the guitarist's unique technique and tunings, and a lot more.
