Course details

Are you tired of the same boring way of playing songs - only by strumming them? ("down-down-up", etc.)

It's time to learn how to play with arpeggio picking - which I like to call "the #1 way to beautify ANYsong".

After this course, you will be able to EASILY play any song that you love while using this special guitar technique.

Think about the following songs - can you recall theguitar picking style that makes them sound special and stand out? I bet you do for at least most of them:

  • Green Day - Time of Your Life

  • Led Zeppelin - Stairway to Heaven

  • The Eagles - Hotel California

  • Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah

  • Bob Dylan - Don't Think Twice It's Alright

  • Fleetwood Mac - Landslide

  • The Animals - House of The Rising Sun


This picking style - called arpeggio picking - where we pick the notes individually instead of strumming all strings together -is exactly the topic of thecourse.

This is personally my favorite way to play songs in - and I also really like to take songs that are originally strummed and instead spice them up using arpeggios.

You will learn exactly how to use the beautiful arpeggio technique and incorporate it into any song that you'll choose to:
