Time to expand your guitar toolkit with some seriously fun techniques! This third module of my Intermediate Acoustic Guitar Course covers power chords, arpeggios, and fingerpicking to add variety and punch to your playing while reinforcing skills through structured exercises and jam tracks.

Key Focus Areas:

  • Barre Chords & Jamming: Strengthen A-shape barre chords and apply them in a dynamic D major jam track.
  • Fingerstyle & Percussive Techniques: Explore arpeggios with a percussive thumb tap for a rhythmic, drum-like effect.
  • Expression & Musicality: Add depth to your playing with string bending, vibrato, and a 12:8 Dylan/Swift-inspired jam track.
