The Bluegrass Guitar Home Page

The Bluegrass Guitar Home Page is designed to be a convenient source of information about the acoustic flat-top guitar and its use in Bluegrass music. Our goal is to help promote traditional guitar and assist players and fans alike.

Our site offers a wide variety of content. We explore the history and styles of guitar used in Bluegrass as well as popular artists. Our Guitars & Gear section looks at the kind of guitar used in Bluegrass, lists buying tips, explores other gear and more.

We have resources to help you learn how to play Bluegrass guitar, including learning tips, an extensive list of instruction materials, a study tune section and tablature pages..

A popular feature is our Top 10 Tunes page, where you'll find a list of the top ten tunes that Bluegrass guitarists like to play. You can also vote for your favorite tunes.

We're glad you stopped by, and hope you enjoy your visit. If you have suggestions or comments on how we can make the site better, be sure to contact us.

What's New

	Three New Instruction Videos Added We've just added three new instruction videos to our Learning Section. We have two titles from Orrin Star: Orrin Star's Flatpicking Primer and Bluegrass Rhythm Guitar Workshop. We've wanted to carry these titles for some time and our distributor has finally gotten them! Both these videos are excellent and are done in Orrin's entertaining and effective way. The third new title is Advanced Bluegrass Rhythm Guitar by Wyatt Rice. This is a great one if you're looking to go beyond basic rhythm backup and want to learn from one of the best. See all these titles on our Method Videos page.
	Expanded Artist Links We've just updated our Artists page to include additional links for each guitarist listed. We've added links to see instructional materials and CDs for each artist. Check it out on our Artists page.
	New CD Reviewed: When Pigs Can Fly We recently reviewed a new CD called When Pigs Can Fly recorded by guitarist Greg Morton. This is a wonderful CD in the best traditions of Bluegrass guitarists and we wanted our readers to know about it. Today many of the best CDs are produced independently and it's more difficult to hear about them. Check out this CD on Greg's web site at GregMorton.Net.
	New Tab Our latest tab is "Bully of the Town" and is based on Norman Blake's recording on his Back Home in Suphur Springs CD. This is a fun Carter-style arrangement. Check it out on our Tab page.
	Doc Watson Content If you're looking for the Doc Watson content formerly at Bluegrass Guitar, you'll find it on its own website called Doc's Guitar at http://www.docsguitar.com. The site has many new features, including an expanded search engine, photos, and learning resources.
