A
partial capo workshop at Hometown by Randall Williams
I'll
be staying up late playing cool sounding chords this weekend.
Although using partial capos and combining them with a
regular capo opens up a world of complex possibilities,
it also makes it possible to get some fresh sounds very
simply. Randall did a great job of opening the door to
the possibilities, while giving us a usable foundation
to get started. After a time to practice and get some
coaching everyone played an example of something using
one or more of the partial capos. It was great hearing
what everyone came up with and definitely a rewarding
learning experience.
Randal
talks about the basics of capo use and explains the difference
between changing voicing and/or structure using the Drop-D™
and Short-Cut™
The League
of Crafty Capoists prepares for a group performance.
Notice the use of capos in different positions and and
playing above, below, and across the capo.
The chance
for to practice what we'd learned with one-on-one coaching
was a major plus.
We
have Drop-D™ and Short-Cut™ capos in stock.
(As well as the other Kyser Quick Change models) If
you missed tthe clinic we'll be glad to show you a taste
of the possibilities you can find using them.
The capo workshop
-
Learn how to get rich new sounds from the guitar using
the Drop-D™ and Short-Cut™ capos, separately
and together in more than a dozen different positions.
-
Learn
the structural reasons why capos fit in certain combinations,
and wow audiences with the variation you get by playing
on both sides of the capo.
-
The
workshop is three-part:: interactive lecture, followed
by one-on-one coaching time, then participants perform
one song using these new techniques. Beginners are
encouraged to attend.
