Joe's Video Introduction>>
A bona fide master of Nashville-style guitar and monster session player, Joe
Dalton is the guitarist's guitarist. He's also a much sought-after
instructor and has been teaching pros for the last two decades. As you can
imagine, his guitaristic trick bag overfloweth and that's what Fretboard
Epiphanies draws so effectively upon.
Dalton's "epiphanies" show you how to take full advantage of the guitar's
unique harmonic and physical characteristics to create an extremely
versatile palette of sounds, textures, motifs, moods, melodies and grooves.
You’ll find that most of the grips in Fretboard Epiphanies are familiar and
super accessible – but the application of those moves is what will have you
grinning ear-to-ear.
Joe kicks off the course with a bit of basic theory that you might even
already know – but this simple theory unlocks key principals. This fires up
a series of epiphanies based around the E Major scale with Diatonic Triads
on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th strings. Joe continues with cool moves
utilizing drones and bass notes, and then reveals similar "epiphanies" in
the key of A Major. Melodic development in both of these keys cap this set
of lessons.
Fretted notes with drones followed by D Diatonic tricks of the trade and
some Drop-D tuning moves continue the adventure with similar wow impact.
Dalton then shows you a bit of magic with the good ole E, D, and A chords.
Non-harmonic tones, upper and lower neighbors, simple but highly effective
embellishments, and a few ideas for creating songs will likewise captivate
your imagination and fretboard skills.
Then the coup de grâce … five arrangements, each worthy of nailing just for
your own repertoire, but each also chock-full of epiphanies you can apply in
thousands of tunes, across virtually any style. These arrangements for
Laura's Song, Song for Ally & Julie, Silent Night, Wayfaring Stranger and
Amazing Grace will blow you away. Amazing Grace however, is a course of
study on its own as Dalton applies a new set of embellishments with each new
chorus.
Whether you flat pick or go fingerstyle, unplugged or electrified, Fretboard
Epiphanies is a candy store for we of the six-string. If you’ve got a sweet
tooth for creative indulgence, there’s enough here to feed you for a very,
very long time.
