Overview
We’ll explore the guts of this classic guitar piece by George Harrision, focusing on: the song structure, chords, the fills in between the chords and the piano intro but played on guitar
Techniques-wise, we’ll explore various ways of playing chords around the neck (involving barre chords based on the CAGED system) as well as looking at plectrum strumming techniques.
Electric players are very welcome as well.
