Want to take your slack key skills to the next level? Here's your chance! This class is for students who have already taken the Slack Key Guitar 1 class, or for those with comparable skills, and focuses on further development of technique and the "slack key" sound. We will work on the open G tuning (Taro Patch Tuning) and touch on slack key scales, vamps and licks, which will lead to our songs! You will be in a comfortable environment that will make it easy for you to learn the basics!
