This, in order to develop the acoustic guitar as a fully-fledged solo instrument, rather than its more typical role of accompanying instrument. Before Hedges, there were already several acoustic guitarists who challenged the convention that the steel-string acoustic guitar’s primary function is that of an instrument for accompaniment. John Fahey, Leo Kottke, Will Ackerman and Preston Reed were the most prominent guitarists to try to validate the steel-string acoustic guitar as a solo instrument. They all had their own unique idiosyncratic approach within this self- proclaimed mandate, but none had the disruptive impact that Hedges had, and still has. Today, this new acoustic guitar movement – often described as Fingerstyle or Percussive Guitar – is larger and more popular than ever.

  • Program Notes by Terry Relph-Knight, Issue 1, 04/02/16 Copyright of Text and Images – T
    The London Guitar Academy – Guitar club podcast 2 - program notes by Terry Relph-Knight, issue 1, 04/02/16 Copyright of text and images – T. Relph-Knight 2016, except where noted otherwise. The sounds of the guitar – Part 2 A journey through the history of the guitar demonstrating the range of sounds now available to the modern guitarist. Christian Frederick Martin and the American flat-top After Torres the story of the guitar moves to America where highly skilled luthieres had set up shop after emigrating from Europe. Their innovations found fertile ground in a large, multicultural and growing nation. Perhaps now the most famous, C.F. Martin https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_Frederick_Martin founder of the Martin guitar company, trained in Vienna under Johann Georg Stauffer https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johann_Georg_Stauffer, but emigrated to America to escape the restrictions and inter-guild bickering of the European craft guild system. Martin trained as a cabinet maker and at the time the Cabinet Makers guild made guitars. However the Violin Makers guild argued that it is was the only guild with a royal mandate to make string musical instruments. Stauffer invented the six-on-a-side tuner arrangement (advantages – straight string pull over the nut and easier access to all six tuners) and a neck that could be easily adjusted for its angle to the body. It seems more than likely that Paul Bigsby, later 'copied' by Leo Fender, may have seen one of Martin's guitars built to the Stauffer pattern. C.F. Martin & Company founded in 1883, quickly developed from mimicking Stauffer's designs, to introducing innovations of its own in guitar design.

  • Fingerstyle Guitar for Beginners.Pdf
    Fingerstyle Guitar For Beginners Table of Contents: 1. Section 1: Fingerstyle 101 Techniques Exercises Beginner Songs Section 1 What Is Fingerstyle? Ok. First things first. If you have a pick anywhere NEAR your computer, hide it! Fingerstyle guitar is the technique of playing the guitar by plucking the strings directly with the fingertips, fingernails, or picks attached to fingers, as opposed to flatpicking (picking individual notes with a single plectrum called a flatpick) or strumming all the strings of the instrument in chords. The term is often used synonymously with fingerpicking. Music arranged for fingerstyle playing can include chords, arpeggios and other elements such as artificial harmonics, hammering on and pulling off with the fretting hand, using the body of the guitar percussively, and many other techniques. Physically, “Fingerstyle” refers to using each of the right (or left) hand fingers independently in order to play the multiple parts of a musical arrangement that would normally be played by several band members. Bass, harmonic accompaniment, melody, and percussion can all be played simultaneously when playing Fingerstyle. Fingerstyle Vs. Flatpicking There is a major difference between using your fingers to pick and using an actual plectrum (pick) for many reasons. Though many artists will employ the usage of both, which we'll get into later on in this program, the idea here is to forget that you've ever even learned to use a pick when playing fingerstyle guitar. A few key differences when playing with your fingers instead of a pick are: 1. Using your fingers allows you to pluck or pick multiple notes that usually aren't 'pickable' using a standard plectrum.
