🎸 Looking for a weekend guitar project?
Classic Swing Guitar!This is a slick solo arrangement by Jonathan Stout of George Gershwin's "I Got Rhythm." It's got what I like to call "finger gymnastics." Quick slides up and down the neck, ghost chords here and there, plus an energetic time feel. I know this style isn't everyone's cup of tea, but it's a really nice challenge if you're looking for one. Check out bars 5-32 in particular, that's the melody.
This transcription is currently incomplete, but if you're enjoying it and would like to see the rest, please let me know! |
