Another 10 day blues challenge starting tomorrow! This one is 100% dedicated to the style of the great Robert Johnson. 

We will take a one day break Saturday the 6th for a fun Christmas chord melody tune that is nice and easy. 

Only the tutorials on Wednesday and Saturday will be paid creations, same as always. 

Looking forward to seeing you shred!

I did not do the first Blues challenge. Am I able to jump in and do the Crossroads one without going back to do the other challenge? Will the Crossroads be too advanced?

Tyler Austenfeld

You don't need the previous blues knowledge from the previous challenge to participate in this one, but it would help a lot. This one is fingerpicking heavy so if you feel comfortable finger picking you will be okay with this challenge. You can always do the first one and do this one later, they will be up on the site forever.
