From the first notes of this DVD, Roger McGuinn's signature Rickenbacker 12-string will immerse you in the sound that made The Byrds a prime musical force. Roger teaches favorites from his powerful repertoire - Mr. Tambourine Man * Turn! Turn! Turn! * Eight Miles High * Mr. Spaceman and others - and shows how to master the licks and guitar techniques that make his sound instantly recognizable. Roger provides important instructional pointers and detailed advice on basic 12-string maintenance, recording techniques and other "insider" tips. 60-MIN. DVD * INCLUDES MUSIC + TAB * LEVEL 3DVD-The 12-String Guitar of Roger McGuinn Review
This video is a great companion for your 12-string guitar. Before I bought my Ricky 370-12, I bought this DVD. Roger's technical demonstrations such as changing strings, and adjusting the truss rods are enlightening, making a seemingly daunting task less so. Even if you don't have a Ricky, the song lessons are useful on any 12-string guitar.The lessons are well laid out, and the solos are played first at their regular tempo, and then slowed down for ease of learning. Roger's hybrid picking style is also explained here, but it isn't necessary to learn it to play these songs (I'm a flatpicker). The booklet accompanying this disc contains tablature for these as well, making this a fairly complete learning package.
The only thing I would ask for would be some audio backing (play-along) tracks to accompany these lessons, so you could play what you've learned with a "band". However, the lack of these in no way detracts from my enjoyment of it, and I recommend this DVD very highly.
