Some nice basic Bluegrass plectrum picking techniques.
Open string runs, melodic rolls and cross
picking a la Chet Atkins
Crospicking plectrum style and bends a la
Clarence White
Some very tasty slide techniques on Dobro
Guitar
Open tunings
Getting a good clean tone
All this means a great Country Players weekend.
This is not to say you
will be playing all this by the time the weekend is over but you will be
able to see how it is done then practise when you get
home.
We get a mixture of abilities on the weekend but
our tutors are used to dealing with this. If you are worried about being
up to a Country Weekend then do a Strugglers
Weekend first.
