Etudes for Electric Guitar

Welcome to “Etudes for Electric Guitar” with Alfred Potter!

What is an etude? An etude is a brief piece of music for a soloist musician used to either develop or showcase technical ability.

Why learn etudes?
Well, not only do they act as compound exercises to develop multiple techniques simultaneously, they are also technical and impressive little performances which you will soon be able to show off anytime and anywhere.

So, how does the course work?
In this course you will work through 15 rich and complex etudes for electric guitar across 15 separate video lessons.  Each etude video lesson comes with a fast and slow demonstration, on-screen TAB, downloadable GuitarPro TAB, and 2x downloadable backing tracks (one at full speed and one at half speed so you can play along).

How should you practice these etudes?
Stage 1: Familiarize yourself with all 15 etudes. Casually go through and try them out.
Stage 2: Be able to play through all 15 etudes at half speed (along with the half-speed backing tracks provided)
Stage 3: Specialize! Choose one etude, your favorite, and get it up to full speed (this may take months)
Stage 4: (Optional) Once one is mastered, choose another and master that one too. Keep repeating this stage.

Enjoy!
