Yukon Summer Music Camp

Pattern Finger Pickin'


Waiting List

Yukonmusiccamp 2018 094

skill level: beginner/intermediate



'Pattern' (Finger) picking is where the Right Hand (RH) fingers maintain a consistent pattern over select strings while the thumb alternates notes on the bass strings. It sounds hard but it is often easier than strumming BIG "cowboy" chords.
In this course I will show you how to achieve maximum chordal efficiency with minimum Left Hand (LH) finger movement. For example we will move through a C - F - G chordal progression and only have to move 3 count 'em!  3 - fingers on the LH. Try doing that with the big strumming cowboy chords!!

We will start out with the basic root position C, F & G chords. By the end of the week I will show you how to adapt this pattern to ALL root position chords. There will be NO BARRE CHORDS in this course.

A whole new musical world is at your fingertips!
