Learn How To Construct Your Own Guitar Fills For Any Genre
Learning how to construct and play tasty ‘fills’ is a requisite skill for guitarists that not only elevates your rhythm and lead guitar chops, they also greatly enhance the overall vibe of any musical performance for your audience.
Rick Stickney’s R&B Guitar Fills Playbook presents an easy, yet highly effective approach for constructing your own soulful fills, across the chord progressions that you’ll commonly encounter on the gig or when jamming.
”The tastiest fills you hear in contemporary music root back to the classic Soul and R&B fills of the 60’s and 70’s. These timeless fills can be artfully tweaked to create endless variations of your own.
In this Playbook, I’ll show you how to easily construct your own soulful fills to connect chords, fill around a vocalist, or even use in your own songs.
We’ll play double stops through chord changes, add color and articulation, passing thirds, sliding fourths and sixths, and do it all authentically by adding melody, dynamics and feel.
We’ll apply all of these approaches over some great live jam tracks for real-world musical context.”
You’ll have all of TrueFire’s advanced learning tools at your finger tips to personalize your workspace and learn at your own pace.
You can loop, slow down, or speed up any section of a lesson. Plus, all of the tab and notation is synced to the videos for the optimal learning experience. You’ll also get tab and standard notation files to print out, Guitar Pro files, and all of the backing tracks to practice with.
