About this course
Welcome to Play Acoustic Guitar 7: Grooves & Etudes for intermediate to late Intermediate students of Acoustic guitar.
This Acoustic Learning Path core course is presented by 3 top TrueFire educators: Vicki Genfan, Massimo Varini, and Adam Miller.
The Grooves & Etudes curriculum is comprised of select Acoustic guitar lessons from the educators’ existing TrueFire course libraries.
One of the qualities that attracts all of us to the guitar is the virtually infinite range of styles and techniques that are possible on the instrument. Having a grasp on a wide variety of styles and techniques not only broadens your musicality, it opens the door to many more playing opportunities with other musicians. You’ll gain more clarity on the instrument overall and expressing yourself on it will become a richer experience. The video guitar lessons in this core course will diversify your skill set and help take your playing to the next level.
Play Acoustic Guitar 7: Grooves & Etudes is organized into 3 sections. In the first section, Massimo Varini puts 4 acoustic rock song forms at your fingertips. Adam Miller serves up 5 more performance studies overflowing with new moves and creative approaches in Section 2. Finally, Vicki Genfan steps you through 5 rhythm makeovers illustrating how you can modify any given progression to craft new textures and cool vibes.
When you’ve completed the lessons here in Grooves & Etudes, you’ll find lessons focused on more acoustic styles in Style Variations, also a Play Acoustic Guitar 7 core course.
The educators demonstrate all of the key examples over jam tracks (where and when applicable) to simulate a real-world application, in a musical context. All of the key examples are also tabbed and notated for your practice, reference and study purposes.
You’ll also get Guitar Pro files so that you can play, loop or slow down the tab and notation as you work through the lessons. Plus, you’ll have all of the available jam tracks to work with on your own.
Take as much time as you need to work through each video guitar lesson before moving on to the next lesson. If you want to dig deeper or wider into any of the topics covered in this core course, check out the recommended supplementary courses in your learning path where you’ll find more examples, techniques and insight from top TrueFire educators.

Acoustic Rock
In this section, Massimo Varini rocks the house and your fretboard with 4 full form acoustic rock performances. The key learnings in this series demonstrates how to combine intro, verse, pre-chorus, bridge, and outro rhythm parts into full song forms.
TIP! Guitar playing is a lot about what you know and understand. Without that you are just fumbling around on the fretboard.
A good way to keep track of all the concepts and different approaches you are going to be working on is to keep a practice notebook handy and jot down these ideas. Your notes can be as simple as "Use the Major pentatonic over a Major chord" or more difficult concepts like chord substitutions. Whatever they are - make notes and review them frequently. Most concepts are things that you will use time and time again throughout your playing career, so keeping track of them all is imperative.
Eventually these concepts become subconscious knowledge like putting one foot in front of the other as you walk across the room, but until then, constant review and repeated use will make sure you are not forgetting or overlooking anything.
