I’m going to assume that like most guitarists you’re fairly accustomed to playing triplets. But how about quintuplets, sextuplets and septuplets? Are they a part of your rhythmic vocabulary or does the mere sight of them on a piece of music make your knees tremble (lol)? If so, the new video I  posted might just be your cure!

In this lesson I show you how the different tuplet varieties sound like and conclude by teaching you a jazz blues, aptly titled “Tupletude”.  I wrote this etude especially to teach you how to tame the tuplet monster in a familiar musical context!

PDF & AUDIO DOWNLOAD:

The Tame The Tuplet Monster Files lesson download includes: PDFs with both regular notation and TAB for the etude (“Tupletude”) and individual tuplets, as well as MP3s of the etude, a backing track, audio examples of each variety of tuplet, and a Band in a Box file of the etude .
