Special Focus: 2022—The Year in Gear Despite uncertain times, acoustic makers unveiled guitars, guitars, and more guitars over the course of 2022. We survey the acoustic gear trends of the past year and take a look ahead to 2023. Also inside are interviews with singer-songwriter-guitarist Madison Cunningham, who discusses how she discovers fresh sounds in unusual tunings and beater instruments, and South Korea-born Bokung Byun, whose recent rise in the classical guitar world has been nothing short of remarkable. In the Makers & Shakers department, editor Adam Perlmutter sits down with Steve Nall, Collings Guitars’ new “wood whisperer,” who talks about his long career and new role at the storied company. Lessons include the third in a series on strumming fundamentals with Cathy Fink; tips on arranging the music of “Father of the Blues” W.C. Handy for solo guitar; a deep dive on adding variety to your playing using slash chords; new ways to warm up; a primer on walking bass lines; and more. In a special lesson-feature, guitarist/historian Nick Rossi examines the career and playing of the legendary Freddie Green, who Rossi suggests is jazz’s most important rhythm guitarist. You can apply what you’ve learned from those lessons to this issue’s songs to play, which include the Mamas and the Papas’ classic “California Dreamin'”; a world premiere of Madison Cunningham’s ode to her late grandmother, “Life According to Raechel”; Courtney Hartman's solo flatpicking take on the traditional song “Cumberland Gap”; and two Scottish folk mainstays: “Fortune Turns the Wheel” and “My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean.” Also on tap are reviews of the PRS SE A20E, a cutaway acoustic-electric that boasts versatility and affordability, and the Hill Guitar Co.

This collection of familiar tunes spans cowboy songs of the Old West, folk songs of Appalachia, and the Great American Songbook. Take these fun, approachable arrangements on your next adventure—whether that's singing along under the starry skies of the great outdoors or casually strumming on your own front porch, you're sure to have a good time. Learn to pick, strum, and sing simple arrangements of 25 classic tunes: Are You Lonesome Tonight? The Ballad of Casey Jones Beautiful Dreamer Deck the Halls Drunken Sailor Home on the Range House of the Rising Sun I'm Sitting on Top of the World It Had to Be You Jenny Jenkins John Henry Let Me Call You Sweetheart Low Bridge, Everybody Down Manhattan My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean Oh Shenandoah On Top of Old Smoky Ragtime Cowboy Joe Red River Valley Stealin' Streets of Laredo This Little Light of Mine Tom Dooley Tonight You Belong to Me What'll I Do From author Maurice Tani "While our focus is at the easy end of the difficulty scale, this book is for guitarists of all levels. I encourage you to first learn and play these songs and then make them your own. The simple arrangements can be taken as a starting point to create your own version of a classic song. As a guitarist and singer-songwriter, I’ve really enjoyed learning—and learning about—these songs. I’ve come away from each one with something absorbed that eventually manifests in my playing, writing, or appreciation. These classic songs have stood the test of time and they still have something to give anyone who wants to take a crack at them. So, enjoy! My hope is you may find that, regardless of whether you’re inside or out, or whether you’re with friends or alone, these songs are very satisfying to play even if there are no flashlights, ghost stories, or mosquito repellent involved." Both the print and digital editions include accompanying videos with Maurice Tani.

Singing and playing music at gatherings – whether around a campfire with friends, at parties, or in community sing-alongs – is always magical and uplifting. Happy Traum, the renowned folk musician, educator, and founder of Homespun Tapes, has put together this collection of 100 songs, perfect for gatherings of all sizes. In the introduction to this songbook, Happy Traum writes: "This book was put together in the same spirit with which we started Homespun Tapes more than 50 years ago: the conviction that making music is a positive and beneficial activity for both professional musicians and for those who want to play and sing simply to entertain themselves, their friends, their family, and their community. The songs in this book mirror that idea. Each one was chosen for its 'singability' and ease of accompaniment on guitar, or any other instrument of choice. Most of these are well-known, though a few may have become obscured by time." Each song is presented with lyrics and easy-to-play chord diagrams. This book contains 100 songs, organized into four sections: Traditional Folk and Bluegrass; Singing the Blues; Gospel Songs and Spirituals; Singer-Songwriters. Includes: All The Good Times Are Past and Gone Amazing Grace Angel Band Angel From Montgomery Annie's Song Betty And Dupree Blood Red River Blowin' In the Wind Blue Railroad Train Buckets Of Rain Bury Me Beneath the Willow Careless Love C.C.

Acoustic Guitar No. 341 — July/August 2023 Special Focus: Celebrating Doc Watson Flatpicking ace Alan Barnosky takes a deep dive into the life and playing style of Doc Watson, an astonishing guitarist who practically invented bluegrass flatpicking and redefined the Travis-style approach to fingerpicking. Plus, a transcription of Watson’s fingerstyle tour de force “Doc’s Guitar” as well as a review of the new Watson tribute album I am a Pilgrim. In this issue’s feature section, we check in with Nickel Creek’s Sean Watkins, Sara Watkins, and Chris Thile, who discuss the making of Celebrants, the trio’s first new release in nearly a decade; and guitarist-composer-improviser Julian Lage, who reached for his Collings OM1 JL for half of the tracks on his recent Blue Note EP, The Layers. We also hear from John Oates, whose musical journey has taken him from the pinnacle of pop to the roots of American blues, country, rock, and R&B, and talk shop with revered archtop maker John Monteleone. Plus, Mark Small speaks with Benjamin Verdery, Andrew York, Stephen Robinson, and Raphaella Smits —all high-achieving guitarists—about the one thing all guitarists have in common: aging. In the lessons department, Sean Watkins shares the secrets behind his carefully crafted parts on Celebrants; Cathy Fink offers a beginner’s guide to boom-chuck patterns in the key of D, and guitarist Grant Gordy shows how triadic mapping can help you develop a better understanding of the fretboard and help you break out of creative ruts. Songs to play include the Doc Watson burner “Doc’s Guitar”; Elizabeth Cotten’s folk staple “Shake Sugaree”; and “Double Southpaw,” a study in position shifting composed by Julian Lage. Also inside are reviews of two new workhorse guitars from Gibson: the J-45 50s Faded and Keb’ Mo’ “3.0” 12-Fret J-45; an expert’s take about what science says about guitar tuners’ effect on tone; and more!
