Excellent Quick Tips!
I love the 7 left hand groove patterns for different levels. This quick tips is a great course on just working on 2 chords while mastering some cool ways to play the right hand riffs.
A lot of fun
I love this course. Great concepts and I love the LH groove.
Blues soloing
Excellent course, I learned a ton.
Loved it!
The reason I gave 4 stars is that the things taught here are almost the same thing to the blues course.
