WELCOME TO THE INTERMEDIATE/ADVANCED SECTION!
This section addresses some of the techniques and guitaring aspects that I have experienced, both as a player and teacher. It is by no means comprehensive. If you are are already a skilled player, these topics may be quite familiar to you, and may not strike you as “advanced” at all. Others may be completely unfamiliar with much of the information. There are more aspects to good guitar playing and musicianship than I could ever detail here. However, I have tried to cover at least some of the more frequently encountered challenges, while trying to keep the musical contexts somewhat basic. I am committed to adding and updating this section regularly. In addition, as with everything at greenfieldguitar.com, I welcome any and all questions and comments .
The topics are not in any particular order, but I have tried to title them as descriptively as possible.
