FANTASTiC | 25 January 2026 | 4.06 GB
Performing solo on the acoustic guitar is one of the purest and most challenging expressions of musicality. Without a band behind you, every note, chord, and rhythm must work together to create a rich, full sound. Successful solo performers must think like arrangers—layering textures, voice-leading chords, and weaving melodic fills—while maintaining a deep connection with their listeners.
It’s not just about technical prowess; it’s about tapping into the guitar’s emotional core and delivering a performance that resonates with any audience.
In Solo Acoustic Roots, Scott Sharrard provides the guidance and techniques you need to elevate your solo playing. You’ll learn how to transform basic chords into vibrant, textured arrangements, craft compelling rhythms, and use melodic fills to add depth and momentum. Scott also explores open tunings, slide guitar techniques, and creative voicings that draw from blues, roots rock, and Americana traditions. You’ll gain not only a versatile skill set but also the confidence to orchestrate a solo performance that stands on its own—captivating, dynamic, and undeniably authentic.
From Scott Sharrard:
“Whether you’re an aspiring singer-songwriter, playing solo gigs, or backing up a vocalist, the guitar is laid bare in a solo acoustic setting. You need a range of dynamic techniques to fill out the sound and really connect with your audience. In this series, we’ll dive into 10 lesson sets, covering blues, roots rock, and Americana styles. I’ll walk you through my favorite rhythm patterns, tasteful fills, innovative chord voicings, crucial open tuning moves, and my go-to slide techniques. You’ll get plenty of practice tips, performance examples, and detailed breakdowns to help you build your skills and confidence on the guitar at its most ‘naked’ level.”
