What you'll learn

play the authentic intros, solos and outros from 10 songs the way they were recorded at SUN Records

gain a better understanding of chord shapes and how to derive solos from them

know some more history about the men who invented and shaped Rock'n'Roll

learn something about how to get the SUN sound

Requirements

You should be familiar with some open chords as well as bar chords and some simple melody playing.

It's definitely an advantage if you know how to read guitar tabs, but it's not required

Guitar pro or a similar software to read and play guitar tabs would be nice, but I will also provide all tabs in PDF format.

You obviously need a guitar to play along

Description

SUN Records is often called the birthplace of Rock'n'Roll, it's also the birthplace of Rockabilly. This little studio in Memphis is the place where Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Johnny Cash, Roy Orbison and many other music stars started their career.Behind those singers were a group of talented guitarists who didn't know that they would write history by mixing Rhythm and Blues with Country Licks and inventing a musical genre, that changed the world.If you love the honest, raw and exciting Memphis Rockabilly guitar sound of the 1950s, then this course is for you.I picked 9 songs and I will teach you the solos exactly how they were played back then.Split screen technique, tabs and authentic jam tracks in 4 different tempos will help you to learn these solos as fast as possible.I will also give you some background information to each songs. Furthermore  I have added intros and verses to some of the songs as well, so you will be able to play the complete song after finishing the lessons.The course will start with simple solos and it'll get more complex later on.
