This is a Course that I have been tempted to do in
the past and am very pleased at this time to announce
that it has finally happened.

I have been asked by many Lap Steel Players (Non Pedal) if I could offer instruction on how to FIND AND PLAY CHORDS without having to learn all the
musical theory. While I do not downplay Theory Study,
a considerable number of players are beyond the stage
where they desire or havee the time to do just that.

What I am offering in this Course is not all comprehensive, but it will put the player in a position where he/she can find and play chords and
chord progressions that will help when in practice or on the band stand. Not to mention arranging music
and composing for one's own enjoyment.

Included are Explanations of all the chords covered,
tablature of my playing the exercises and a matching
CD.

I beleive many will find this Course helpful and
invite you to email me for further information.

Roy

How much is this course; is this for a 6 or 8 string; and what tuning is your guitar on the cd?

thanks

Dean,

The Course is written for Six String C6th
with E on the top:
E--C--A--G--E--C ....that's the tuning I
use on the Guitar for the CD demonstrations.
If you have an 8 string and tune your top
six strings as aforementioned then this
course will also definitely apply.

Please email me:

Thanks so much for your interest.

Roy

In answer to several questions I have received,
you do not need to know music theory or be able
to read music to get full benifit from this
course. In fact, that's why I did it, to help
people who play by ear or just have limited
or no knowledge of standard music notation.
It will open new doors for you.
