  1. Easy Fingerstyle Blues Guitar Here you can learn an easy fingerstyle blues guitar theme which I have created for you. It's pretty easy to play because it's in the key of A and works with a lot of open strings. You can play this tune with fingerstyle, chicken picking by using a pic and your fingers or only with a pic but I strongly recommend fingerstyle because it really gives the right sound and vibe. At the end of the tutorial I play the theme for you and go into improvisation to give you some inspiration - please also check that out.

  3. Hey guys, I have created a new " Must Have " series in my tutorials. Learing guitar is individual and interests are different so not every tutorial is for everybody of course. I always try to cover all topics and also don't let out interesting parts of guitar playing which probably are not so popular but still of interest of some of you. But there are topics which really are of interest for any player - these one's are now marked with " Must Have " Hope you enjoy this new series.
  4. Here you can learn horizontal pentatonic tricks which are a great add in your guitar playing. Most guitar players are stuck in their patterns which make them play vertically which is cool but if you want to sound different the easy way the horizontal pentatonic tricks are the right ones for you. I show the patterns on the B and high E string, show you the fingering and then give you some ideas how to work with these horizontal patterns. At the end of the tutorial I show you how to combine the new ideas and licks with your normal playing. This tutorial is from the new " Must Have " Series. Means thats one you better don't miss. funk rock Am 95.mp3 Horizonal Pentatonic Tricks.pdf Horizonal Pentatonic Tricks.gp
  5. You can learn a solid Mystic Spanish Guitar. I am working with a song of my own with the chords A minor, D9/13, Fmaj7#11 to E7b 9. First I'm going to show how to play the rhythm guitar with a relaxed strumming pattern and how to create a nice Spanish Vibe with different courts and patterns and then I'm going to show you how to work out the Mystic Sound by using the options of the chords A minor & D 913. The options are the 9 and 11 on the A minor or the 9 & 13 on the D7. The scales which are used are A dorian, A aeolian and A harmonic minor. I tell you how to use those scales, how to use those options at Target note in your sewing and how to create Spanish guitar vibe with tremolo picking by using your guitar pic. This tutorial basically teaches you how to create a mystic vibe in a song with different techniques and using Target Notes and not showing so much licks and ideas in different scales..At the end of this tutorial I play a version of my own to give you some inspiration.

  6. Here you can learn to play the rhythm guitar of " Just Got Paid " by Joe Bonamassa as it is played on his live version in the Royal Albert Hall. I checked out the 3 main parts of the song which is the intro where he interacts with the audience, then the main riff with the singing part and the refrain part and at the end the interlude which leads to the guitar solo. The best is that you first learn all these 3 parts and then listen to the original song to figure out when which part is played. I can checked the song till the guitar solo starts so this should work out pretty well for you guys. Just Got Paid .pdf Just Got Paid .gp
  7. This will be the new tutorial on thursday :
  8. When comes to smooth jazz George Benson is one of the go-to guys. I've always been a huge fan of George Benson and his guitar playing even his more sweet songs like on his CD Breezin. In this tutorial I'll show you some tricks and tips how to play a song pretty much in the style of breathing by George Benson with the chords Dmaj7 / Bm7 / Em7 / A7. This is a so-called 1625 progression which is normally displayed with Roman letters. In this tutorial I first show you the chords, then explain the progression, then show the used scales and then show you a simple theme which really works nights on this progression. The theme is very simple to play and give you an idea how you can develop a theme with simple melodic lines. Then I'll show you how to make variations on a theme by using the associated scale in this case this is the D major pentatonic. Since the major pentatonic sounds a little bit sweet I show you a trick how to use an approach note on the third note of the major pentatonic scale to create a more bluesy sound. For the concept to play smooth jazz theme song is to first play the theme then start to do variations on the theme then go into improvisation with a major pentatonic and then give you the more highlighted line with the Blues Licks and at the end you come back to the theme. Discounted is very similar to normal Jazz improvisation and it smooth jazz you just going to work more in a bluesy kind of way. At the end of the tutorial I going to play for 3 minutes example how to develop your ideas on improvisation on variations on a theme and to make it interesting to the listener.

  13. If you are a fan of really cool 80's till 90's rock like Judas Priest, Krokus, Accept, Scorpions or others or you just love rock guitar this tutorial is for you. Here I show you a really hard rocking guitar riff in the key of D and how you can develop your riff to another riff and to slightly get into soloing. Even the tracks is 120 bpm – meaning pretty fast the riff and the licks are quiet easy to play if you have your things a bit together. In this tutorial it's not about the riff and the licks I am showing. There are only suggestions – it's about creating this great music and waves of cool and hard rocking music. Thats why I call this tutorial " The Rocker " - because it rocks ! The Rocker.pdf The Rocker.gp dark hendrix rock riff.mp3

  15. This song was an order by a customer during the corona crisisand the lockdown to get some peace and relaxation. Took me quite a while to now finally proceed to release this song as well on the Farbmusik YouTube channel since I needed to reorder many things in my work. A few words to this song. It's the color yellow - yellow has a healing power and can put away darkness the best way. I can choosen the 432 Hz tuning to give it more healing power. The customer wished to have a string orchestra added. I love this way of piano music and it's a plan of mine to continue this work even my time is so limited due to the extended service in the HPCrazy Guitar Academy. But for sure I will take this kind of music to a next level.
  16. Here you can listen to a meditativ acoustic guitar song of mine. It's is quite easy to play - at least when it comes to the raw form and chords of it. Those one's I have written down for you as tabs. Check them out and then listen how I played with those chords. I always work on songs that way. I have a raw form upon that one I start to improvise.

  18. Hey Phil - yeah this lesson has a lot of " meat " on it which you can work on.
  19. Thats my opinion too. I can not even tell how simple my home equipment is where I always practice. Just an Roland AC-60 Amp. Just that - since many years.
  20. Here you can learn an guitar duo version of Samba Pa Ti by Carlos Santana. Since many of you might don't have a latin rock band in the near neighbourhood but for sure a buddy who plays guitar I thought it would make sense to create a version for you which works in a guitar duo. Best would be with an acoutic nylon guitar and an electric guitar but it works with any guitar. Here are the chords which the rhythm guitar has to play. In the tutorial I show you how you can do that. It's a bossa nova rhythm guitar which works great on this song. At the end there is a vamp on cue means that you repeat those chords till the guitar solo ends. Gmaj7 / Bm7 / Em / Am / Gmaj7 / Bm7 / Em / Am / D / Am / D / D / Am / Bm / Am / D / D Gmaj7 / Bm7 / Em / Am / Gmaj7 / Bm7 / Em / Am / D / Am / D / D / Am / Bm / Am / D / D Gmaj 7 / Bm / Am / D / Gmaj7 / Bm / Am / D Gmaj7 / Am – Vamp on cue After that part I show you how to play the theme of this great song and after that I give you some tips how you can play a great improvisation on the vamp. At the very end I play a solo myself for you to give you some additional inspiration but for sure you need to check out the original song by Carlos Santana if you dont know it by now. Here are the available chapters : 0:00 Introduction 2:13 Rhythm Guitar 10:33 Theme 17:27 mprovisation 23:37 HP's Solo Samba Pa Ti.pdf Samba Pa Ti ( chords ).pdf Samba Pa Ti.gp samba pa ti.mp3
