Sue Foley is both a guitarist and a scholar, and she was kind enough to create this exclusive lesson, breaking down key techniques from some of the musicians she celebrates on One Guitar Woman. In Example 1, Foley demonstrates the Carter scratch, a technique pioneered by Maybelle Carter in which the guitarist plays single-note melodies on the bass strings while adding chordal accents on the upper strings.

We had a great time hanging out with Adam Levy and Ethan Sherman, the authors of String Theories – Tips, Challenges, and Reflections for the Lifelong Guitarist and Jeffrey Pepper Rodgers, author of Dynamic Guitar – More Tools to Go Beyond Strumming. Watch this replay video for an engaging discussion about these new books and the process of writing and developing instructional materials for guitarists.
