Mark Dziuba helps you become a great blues guitarist by expanding your groove palette. You’ll learn about shuffle and straight rhythms, the 12/8 feel, triplets, blues forms, the minor blues, and various blues rhythm tricks, including chord fills, using accents and mutes, sliding into chords, and open-string drones. Additionally, Dziuba explores harmonic concepts, like chord extensions and advanced voicings, plus rhythms from music beyond the blues—the Charleston and Latin montuno. The included DVD is hosted by Dziuba and features live demonstrations of the examples in the book.
