Love bootcamps
Matt Schofield is a master bluesman, and this boot camp will work your hands and heart in the blues tradition. All the exercises have immediate applications and lead to an expansion in creativity in the standard forms. I've found I have to take the lessons slowly and make sure I have them mastered before moving on. While that is true of most courses, anything that involves a lot of bending creates some concern for "older" hands. I'm glad only my hands have aged, though ;) Matt has a great love for the art of the blues, and he is passing on real wisdom.
