Andi is a professional musician/teacher, specializing in Old School Blues (Delta Blues & Country Blues on acoustic, and Chicago Blues on electric).  He knows what you need to learn, and knows how to teach it to you.  For years, he has provided private lessons and on-line blues guitar workshops. He is the author of two bestselling blues guitar books in Germany.  Andi is also a contributing author for 'Gitarre & Bass', a popular Guitar magazine in Europe.  For this DVD, he has remastered and videotaped the material in one of his books specifically for the CBG.
All of the tutorials on this video are played on a MeadGuitars 3 string CBG tuned to open G.  However most all of the information presented can easily be uses on other instruments (with frets or fretless) with other tuning.
This DVD is recommended for anyone wanting to learn to play CBG.  If all you want to do is pick up a few licks, turnarounds, neck, hand, and string techniques, you can quickly and easily do that with this DVD.  But if you also want to go deep into advanced blues techniques and theory, that is covered as well.
Within days you will sound like you know what you are doing.  Within weeks you actually
will know
what you are doing.
The material is presented in concise 1 to 5 minute video clips, accessible in a easy to use DVD user interface.  At your desk, in your living room, or in your hotel room, you will have ready access to dozens of tutorials in the following chapters:
Basic Techniques

You will learn to play licks from blues guitar greats like Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Buddy Guy, Robert Johnson, and Eric Clapton.  Given Andi's casual teaching style and experience, you can become very proficient at playing without learning any chords or advanced mumbo-jumbo.  However,  the course does include many videos on advanced chords and progressions, for those that want to progress beyond simple techniques.  The
Playing Slide
chapter alone includes 8 different videos covering right and left hand techniques and will teach you slide songs from blues greats.
