Product Description

Acoustic Blues Guitar by guitarist and educator Kenny Sultan is a guitar songbook with an accompanying 70-minute audio CD that explores traditional acoustic blues through fingerstyle arrangements, slide techniques, and classic blues repertoire. Created as a follow-up to Introduction to Acoustic Blues, this collection is written for intermediate-level guitarists and presents music in five different keys and positions while incorporating both standard and open tunings. The material focuses primarily on fingerstyle playing with a monotone bass, helping players develop authentic acoustic blues phrasing and rhythmic control. The CD features performances of every musical example and song, with each selection played slowly and then at full speed so guitarists can hear phrasing, timing, and articulation in context. This combination of written music and recorded demonstrations makes the collection useful for individual practice, guitar lessons, repertoire building, and performance preparation.
