Specifications:
On this inspiring DVD, guitar virtuoso Laurence Juber shows you how altered tunings - particularly open C, open G minor and DADGAD - work to influence a tune's shape and sound. Using his full array of guitar pyrotechnics, Laurence creates superb chord voicings and utilizes a variety of techniques to build his uniquely powerful guitar arrangements.
All of Laurence's instrumentals feature a variety of hammers, pulls, slides, bends, vibrato and octave stretches. You'll learn how he uses two-hand tapping, thumb slaps, harmonics and other percussive techniques to give a piece extra dimension and power. At one point he combines all of this with Big Band-era chord inversions for a rich, jazz-tinged sound.
You'll learn, in detail, some of Laurence's most requested tunes:
Pass The Buck
Bob's Your Uncle
Rules Of The Road
Feet On My Back Again
As a bonus, Laurence's evocative arrangement of The Beatles' "Rain" (in CGDGAD) incorporates everything you've studied and features lush dynamic contrasts.
