These personalized 30-minute guitar lessons will explore how popular bluegrass tunes lay out across the neck and how to develop a deeper understanding of the fretboard. We’ll also dig into the rhythmic pulse rooted in the fiddle tradition—an essential foundation of bluegrass music.

Depending on your interests, we can focus on fretboard fluency and visualization, rhythmic feel, or crafting solo guitar arrangements.
