Carter Style Guitar Arrangement
In this video Dan Miller demonstrates how to take a song melody and prepare a Carter style arrangement on the guitar. He first shows a basic arrangement in the open position in the key of D. He then demonstrates moving that arrangement to the key of C, with the capo on the second fret. He then shows how to embellish that basic arrangement using techniques such as tremolo, hammer-ons and pull-offs, double stops, and bass walks into melody notes.
