Truefire James Hogan's Practice Sessions: Hybrid Picking TUTORiAL

Learn and Practice 8 Essential Hybrid Picking Techniques for Guitar
Hybrid picking is the right-hand picking technique that allows guitar players to take ready advantage of using both pick and fingers at the same time for greater articulation, dynamics, and tonal control in both your lead and rhythm playing.

You’ll play your way through this Hybrid Picking edition of Practice Sessions from James Hogan, which will build your hybrid picking technique across eight powerful interactive practice sessions, each focusing on a different hybrid picking application.

”We’ll work on hybrid picked piano style comping, arpeggiated melodies, syncopated phrasing, double stops, chicken pickin’ and other key approaches.

Each session begins with a quick breakdown of the technique and then I’ll perform a demonstration of that particular technique over a groove. We’ll work with a variety of styles for musical context.

We’ll cap off each rhythm study together with a hands-on practice session. I’ll roll the track and we’ll trade back and forth as I guide you through the core examples followed by several variations and embellishments.”

What makes this format really special is how you’ll get these approaches firmly under your fingers -- you’ll practice each of the concepts together with James, in a series of interactive practice sessions. Working regularly with these “practice sessions” is the key to developing a solid command of all 8 hybrid picking techniques.

You’ll get standard notation and tabs for all of the performance studies. Plus, you’ll be able to use TrueFire’s learning tools to sync the tab and notation to the video lesson. You can also loop or slow down the videos so that you can work with the lessons at your own pace. All of the backing tracks are included to work with on your own as well.
