Learn How to Craft Solo Guitar Arrangements—In Any Style!

Greg Koch

Crafting solo guitar arrangements in any style offers a number of benefits to guitarists. Firstly, it allows for more creativity and expression, as the arrangement can be crafted to your own playing style and preferences. Additionally, it provides an opportunity to hone technical skills like fingerpicking, strumming, and chord voicings. It also improves musical knowledge and understanding of song structure and harmony. Solo guitar arrangements also open an avenue for performance, whether in a casual setting or on stage. Overall, crafting solo guitar arrangements can be a fulfilling and rewarding experience, offering both personal and musical growth.

What does Greg have to say?

”I’ve organized the course into six sets of lessons. Each set focuses on a different solo guitar approach, and we’ll put each to work in a solo arrangement that I’ve worked out from some of my own original tunes.

We’ll start by exploring some of the ways I use chord inversions to create melodies, gospel influences, chord melody, country blues approaches, travis and hybrid picking, accompanying yourself with bass notes, hammer ons and other melodic embellishments.

We’ll look at some of the ways I use open G tuning for solo tunes, wide intervallic melodies and a whole lot more gristle along the way.

Using TrueFire’s learning tools, we’ll practice together every step of the way, at any speed, looping any section of the arrangement.” – Greg Koch
