T
his class is for guitar players who know how to strum and play basic chords. We will learn to play one of the most common alternative tunings. - DADGAD.
DADGAD tuning brings a unique flavor to your music without requiring a deep dive into theory. I have been playing this tuning for over 10 years and it has been a great addition to contemporary worship music.
This class is faith based and will focus on students learning to lead in a worship setting.
