Editorial Reviews

One of the most popular and evocative performers on the scene today helps you unlock your creativity and develop rich, ringing guitar voicings in a variety of open tunings.

Working primarily in open C, G, D and DADGAD, and utilizing both pick and finger style, David Wilcox reveals the techniques that shape his distinctive guitar sound. His unusual practice of playing in "cross keys" and his use of string damping, rhythms, open chord harmonies, moving bass lines, partial capos other devices will open new doors and transform the way you approach your instrument.

Dave’s invaluable advice on how to practice, re-tune by "feel," transpose mid-song, hear new sounds, experiment with a variety of fingerings and tunings and develop ideas for using the guitar as a writing tool will inspire you to invent your own fingerings and tunings and discover untold musical possibilities.

Songs: Eye of The Hurricane, Rusty Old American Dream, Show the Way, New World, Language of the Heart, Time Between the Lightning and the Thunder, Distant Water, Spin, Prayer, Show Me The Key.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for those interested in Wilcox music. March 30, 2008
If you enjoy David Wilcox music and you are an intermediate guitar player yourself, you will get a lot out of this dvd. It is filmed like a personal session with David Wilcox showing you how to tune and finger a few of his songs. I enjoyed it very much just watching it the first time. Now I am in the process of learning some of the fingerings for some of my favorite songs.

THis is probably one of the most approachable title you'll find if you're trying to learn about alternate tunings.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great DVD March 7, 2013
Amazon Verified Purchase
I love David Wilcox's stuff.
This DVD goes into his open tunings and shows you how to play many of my favorite songs from him.

If you can get past the 90's look of the whole thing the content is great.
