  • Action the Distance from the String to the Fretboard. the Higher the Action, the Harder It Is to Press the Down the Note
    action The distance from the string to the fretboard. The higher the action, the harder it is to press the down the note. altered and open tunings If you change the tuning of the guitar from its standard EADGBE, the result is an altered or open tuning. These are used a lot in blues & Celtic music, but can be used in any style. alternate picking Picking in a down up, down up motion. arpeggio The notes of a chord played one at a time. arrangement The form of a song. For instance, start with the intro then go to the verse and then the chorus etc… barre chord When you place the 1st finger of the left hand over 2 or more strings, you are using a barre. (Think of your finger as a capo while doing this) bending pushing or pulling the string across the fretboard to raise and or lower the pitch of the note. capo A device that clamps across the fretboard to simulate the barre. This is very useful to play in different keys but still to use the same chord shapes. chord A chord is 3 or more notes played together at the same time. chorus This refers to the “hook” of the song. Usually the part that sticks in your head that you sing over and over. cutaway The cutaway is the part of a guitar that is “cut out” on the lower part of the body where the neck meets the body. This is for easy access to the upper register of the fretboard.

  • The Story of Bourgeois Guitars
    The Story of Bourgeois Guitars Known for tonal excellence, meticulous craftsmanship, and top-notch materials, played by six-string luminaries such as Bryan Sutton, Ricky Skaggs, Sean Watkins, Doc Watson, Ray LaMontagne and countless professional and non- professional enthusiasts, Bourgeois guitars have played a prominent role in the American steel-string guitar renaissance for more than two decades, helping shape acoustic music’s most recent rise in popularity. What makes Bourgeois guitars unique? Why do they sound the way they do? How did Dana Bourgeois evolve from a guitar-crazy teenager in the 1970’s to become a recognized authority on tonewoods and instrument design? Let’s have a look at the instruments’ history, explore the concepts behind their designs, and learn how they’re built. In the Beginning Dana Bourgeois’ involvement with guitars predates by many years the company that carries his name. His work has, in fact, enriched the steel-string guitar world for almost 40 years. Although Bourgeois began playing guitar shortly after seeing the Beatles’ historic performances on The Ed Sullivan Show, his journey with the craft of lutherie began in earnest while attending Maine’s Bowdoin College in the early ’70s. After devouri ng Irving Sloan’s landmark book Classic Guitar Construction, Dana figured he’d give it a shot in his dorm room. “My grandfather was a machinist, and my father was an amateur wood worker, and between the two of them, I received enough help to actually build a guitar,” he remembers. Clearly, Dana had found his passion. By 1977, he had established a one-man shop in Brunswick, Maine, which soon led to his first commission for a hand-built guitar.

  • Introduction
    Introduction “The vision is really about empowering workers, giving them all the information about what’s going on so they can do a lot more than they’ve done in the past.” – Bill Gates So why the guitar? Before we go any further ask yourself what you hope to get out of learning your chords and scales and other nonsense? Is there a friend who looks cool while shredding a Hendrix or Van Halen lick? Can you possibly relate to your favorite musical artist so much that you’d like to play their music when the iPod batteries run out? You’re an avid Guitar Hero player? Maybe it’s just to catch a cute girl’s eye. Whatever the reason is I thank you for coming to me to help you out. Maybe you might like to hear why I started? Two of my best friends played guitar and they always thought I had huge potential so after one too many scrapes and falls from my Razor scooter (long story) I decided I had less of a chance of cracking my head open with the guitar. Some of the bands I really liked at the time were AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, Metallica, and Van Halen. Great bands to have when you’re first starting to play! I was lucky in that my school was very relaxed academically for my senior year so any homework I finished was done before I got home so that I could start learning stuff like “TNT” or “You Really Got Me”. My little brother had a sunburst epiphone les paul that he never attempted to play, but I had no amp for the first few months so I played as loud as possible with just that.
