12-STRING GUITAR

CHRIS PROCTOR

Guitar Tuition DVD

Chris Proctor's exceptional DVD will bring your 12-string guitar playing to new levels, and will teach you challenging and beautiful instrumental solos.  This course is jam-packed with instruction in the use of open tunings, bottleneck / slide techniques, harmonics and string muting, as well as invaluable advice on finger picks, tuning, stringing and setting up your instrument.

Most 12-string players strike the octave and unison pairs of strings simultaneously.  Chris shows you a revolutionary way of picking the twelve strings individually, using alternate thumb and finger picking within the pairs of octave and unison strings.  Scales, fiddle tunes and other melodic passages can be played with flowing melody lines and shimmering, cascading tones, with a minimum of left-hand movement.

Through exercises, insights and detailed instruction, Chris helps you realize the 12-string guitar's sonic power, and he enables you to play spectacular fingerstyle solos
