Master the Must-Know Country Licks & Build Authentic Solos! 🎸🔥
If you’re serious about playing country guitar, you need to know the licks that define the genre—the signature phrases and techniques that professional players use to craft their solos. These go-to licks aren’t just flashy tricks; they’re the building blocks of country lead guitar.
I’m excited to introduce my new course:
🎸 20 Must-Know Country Guitar Licks
This course will teach you over 20 essential country guitar licks, but that’s just the beginning. Each lick is demonstrated in three different keys and across multiple string sets and positions, giving you nearly 150 variations to incorporate into your playing.
These licks are the templates every great country guitarist uses to build solos, create new ideas, and develop their unique voice on the instrument. Learning them in their most common, straightforward forms will give you a strong foundation in country lead guitar.
🎶 Techniques You’ll Master:
✅ Chicken Pickin’ – The crisp, percussive sound that defines country lead guitar
✅ Banjo Rolls – A fast-picking technique that adds a bluegrass flair to your solos
✅ Country Bends – The expressive bends that bring twang and emotion to your playing
✅ Double Stops – A staple of country guitar, allowing you to harmonize and thicken your solos
✅ Flatpicking – Essential for driving, articulate country leads
✅ Chicken Pickin’ 3rds & 6ths – A must-know for creating those signature harmonized country runs
✅ Bending 3rds & 6ths – Smooth, expressive bends used by legends like Brent Mason and Don Rich
✅ Lap Steel Voicings – Create pedal steel-inspired bends and phrases on the guitar
What Makes This Course Different?
Unlike most licks courses, this isn’t just a random collection of riffs. You’ll be learning how these licks work across the neck and how they fit into the CAGED system, helping you connect phrases, navigate the fretboard, and build solos with confidence.
All licks are demonstrated in the key of G so you can clearly see how they relate to each other in a single key, but I’ve also provided notation and TAB in C and D. This means that if you put in the work, you’ll have 20 licks ready to go in three different keys—a total of 60 licks at your fingertips.
Your Learning Tools Include:
✔️ Full notation & TAB in G, C, and D
✔️ Five different backing tracks to practice with
✔️ Adjustable playback speed so you can learn at your own pace
