Course Description


You can play thousands of classic rock songs with the knowledge you gain from the Classic Rock Unplugged course because it is the quickest and most comprehensive way to learn all the skills, chords, licks, rhythms, riffs, and solo ideas you need. So let's get together and play some classic rock tunes from the era, featuring the likes of Eric Clapton, the Eagles, the Beatles, and more. We'll put together our own acoustic band by learning chords, riffs, and arrangements. If you have a solid grasp of the guitar's fundamentals, this course is perfect for you. By the end of the course, you'll be able to play the most essential guitar chords and play songs with impressive strumming techniques. Open chord fluency, tablature literacy, and the aptitude to pick up barre chords are pre-requisites. Students must supply their own instruments.
