Hey friends! New lesson here, where I’ll show you how to play a solo acoustic version of Tennessee Whiskey by Chris Stapleton. This one has a simple structure (it only uses A and B-minor), but there’s so much fun to be had by adding small riffs between these two chords. In my lesson I’ll start with the basics (basic chord shapes & 3 strumming options) — and then I’ll get into some more advanced stuff, including chord variations and a few ways you can combine lead fills with your strumming.
Here’s a preview of the PDF for this lesson:
