Learn how to play authentic, old school country licks using the CAGED system, all over the neck. One killer, authentic country phrase for every position on the fretboard. You'll explore pedal steel-style bends, classic double stops, chicken picking, bluegrass vocabulary and phrasing ideas that capture the true sound of classic country guitar.

Whether you're just getting started with the CAGED system or looking to add more authentic flavour to your solos, this lesson will give you the tools to unlock the entire neck and feel confident playing in any key!

What you'll learn:

How to apply the CAGED system to country licks
Beautiful Pedal steel-style bends
Spicy double stops
Blending Major & Minor pentatonic scales
Phrasing ideas to bring out that classic twang

The lesson materials for this one will include the usual tab and notation in guitar pro and PDF formats as well my backing track and audio file of the opening performance.
For those of you with the full version of Guitar Pro, I've also embedded the audio file within so you don't have to put up with the awful midi sounds ;)
