Liner notes from players
Michael R
(Dead Fundamentals)
"You’re going to come to a point where you choose a faster path or a slower path. The Grateful Dead Guitar Fundamentals is the faster path, period."
Doug T
(Dead Fundamentals)
"I used to struggle to make solos sound like anything. Now I can play through ‘Casey Jones’ with the vocal melody and it sounds great."
Peter Lopatka
(Dead Easy Challenge)
"The last 7 days were huge in my journey to become musical. This lesson in particular stitched together concepts that I've played with out of context for a few years now. I'd be a satisfied customer if this was the last lesson. And I'm loving the backing tracks. I listen to them without my guitar at night. Beautiful."
JD
(Dead Easy Challenge)
"I’ve always struggled with improvising, but this challenge gave me a focused approach that really built my confidence. The daily lessons and the way each one connected, especially learning the different Mixolydian positions, made it all click. Totally worth it."
Greg
(Dead Easy Challenge)
"I used to feel completely lost when improvising, but this challenge finally showed me how to take a scale shape and actually use it musically. Having the scales on screen with the backing tracks was a huge help. Totally worth the effort."
Brian
(Dead Easy Challenge)
"I already loved improvising, but I was running out of ideas. This challenge gave me direction. Working with motifs and triads helped me finally connect melody, shapes, and feel in a way that tells a story. If you know the basics and want to play with more emotion and clarity, this course is a great next step."
Rob K
(Dead Easy Challenge)
"I joined the Dead Easy Improv 30-Day Challenge feeling stuck and honestly bored with my playing. The focus on mixolydian and major scales completely changed how I see the fretboard. I actually watched the patterns start to flow. Now my practice has purpose again. If you're in a rut, this challenge will energize you to break out of it."
Ken G
(Dead Easy Challenge)
"I finally understand the Dead style. Mixolydian, the major blues sound… it all clicked. The China Cat lesson was a breakthrough and made me feel like I was really jamming for the first time."
Settimo
(Dead Easy Challenge)
“Before this challenge I mostly noodled in minor pentatonic, but the daily lessons finally gave me direction. Getting comfortable with Mixolydian and major pentatonic opened everything up, and my solos started to breathe more and actually tell a story. Improvising over Dead tunes feels natural now. Night and day difference.”
