DAD Tuning

Class Times – 1:30-2:30PM on Thursdays

Class for Mid Beginner and UP! You should already be comfortable playing 10 songs as a moderate speed.

We will go over techniques I use to add the sauce!! We’ll have lots of exercises to work on along with several fiddle tunes. This is not the same as my FLATPICKING workshop.

We will use a metronome in class as lot and I recommend you have either one on your phone (app) or purchase a digital one.

Get ready to zip y’all! Jams and people you play with will usually play with some speed so this will get you feeling confident to do so – ALL WHILE PLAYING SMOOTHLY.

Class size is limited to 10 students.

LEVEL – Intermediate DAD

Class times – 1:30-2:30PM on Wednesdays

**Intermediates and up. Do you play a lot of songs already but don’t know how to make them fancier?

In this class we will work on multiple songs (you’ll get the tabs for the basic melody) and we will max each one out. I will show you how to do this so you can do it with ANY SONG you play.

I get a lot of students who tell me, ok I can play tab, what now. If that is you, then this workshop will get you moving in the right direction.

Class size is limited to 10 students. I will be offering this class more than once after May of 2025 also.
