Country Lead Guitar Series

Country Lead Guitar Study 1. This is the first of a series of Country Lead Guitar Studies. The series explores the concept of soloing from chord shapes. Country Lead Guitar Study 1 centers around the E shaped barre chord at the 10th fret. The intervals of the chord are discussed and then a riff is assigned to each interval. The riffs in this study are examples. The student is encouraged to develop each riff or use one of their own. In other words, put their own signature on each riff. Essentially, this study is a way of developing your style.

All of the various lead guitar studies from the Jim Sutton Institute of Guitar are interrelated. One study is useful to the next in helping create a cohesive picture.

This is a Supplementary Lesson, level 6. It includes 13 pages and CD/cassette. ($17.50)

Country Lead Guitar Study 2. The focus of Country Lead Guitar Study 2 is on the "A" shaped barre chord played at the 5th fret. The intervals of the chord are discussed and a riff is assigned to each. The student is encouraged to expound upon this concept by developing riff ideas of their own.

Applicable scale patterns are discussed. A country boogie solo is charted and the solo techniques are analyzed. There is continuity between this study and the other guitar studies offered by the Jim Sutton Institute of Guitar. (Blues Lead Guitar, Modal Playing and Solo Composition Course, The Cage System Visualizing the Guitar Neck, etc..)

This is a Supplementary Lesson, level 6. It includes 12 pages and CD/cassette. ($17.50)

Country Lead Guitar Study 3 will focus on the "G" shaped barre chord played at the 7th fret. Scales and riffs are demonstrated and explained. Fills and solo composition are explored.

This is a Supplementary Lesson, level 6+. It includes 16 pages and CD/cassette. ($17.50)

Country Lead Guitar Study 4. The focus of Country Lead Guitar Study 4 is on the E shapped barre chord played at the 10th fret. The intervals of the chord are discussed and a riff is assigned to each.

Solo concepts are discussed. The student is given the opportunity to try several ad lib approaches to a country ballad and a country two step.

This is a Supplementary Lesson, level 6+. It includes 15 pages and CD/cassette. ($17.50)
