The Andy Wood Masterclass

After the release of his awe-inspiring and hugely successful ‘Live at the Bijou’ concert, Andy wanted to break down some of his favourite live moments so that you can learn to play them too. If you want to really get inside the mind of Andy Wood, and bring back some amazingly useful ideas to augment your own style, then THIS is how you do it!

The melodies, the techniques, the improvisations - Andy reveals the ‘what’, ‘how’ and ’why’s for his approach to songs and solos, so that you can study and analyse what makes him such a phenomenal player!

Including over an hour of breakdown lesson material, Andy sits down to take you through six of the most requested live tunes including ‘Truth and a Lie’, ‘Tokyo’, ‘Reach’, ‘Of Elf and Man’, ‘The Palace of the King’ and ‘The Ballad of Ricky and Cal’.

In each lesson video Andy explains key elements of the songs, taking you through the melodies of the tunes, the most important sections, essential licks and what he’s thinking about in the improvisational sections of the solos. For every key part, not only does Andy show what's happening in the lessons but we’ve also included extract clips from the ‘Live at the Bijou’ concert, and you’ll get the official TAB/notation for every clip.

As well as all of the extracts, we’ve also taken the time to TAB out some of the amazing exercises, examples, phrases and short solos that Andy imparts as he explains the ins and outs of each song - and we must say... some of these ‘off the cuff’ phrases are worth the masterclass price alone! It's all laid out for you.

Towards the end of this masterclass, you’ll also get three general improvisation lessons packed with highly usable tips and tricks where Andy breaks down his approach to vibrato, playing inside vs outside during his solos, and about the important of listening to yourself while playing. These will help build your overall musicianship and give you a deeper understanding to Andy's musical philosophies.

After you’ve gone through each song with Andy, he’s also included the full length album quality backings to the tracks, so that you can solo over them and put everything you’ve learned into practice!

The deluxe version is where this masterclass really shines. Andy isn’t a bedroom guitarist playing for some friends, he’s the real deal and can throw it down on the big stage too! So not only do you get everything laid out above, but you’ll also get the full ‘Live at the Bijou’ concert featuring over and hour and a half of astounding musicianship, incredible song writing and quite possibly some of the most inspirational live guitar playing you’ll ever see.

So if you want to gain a better understanding of Andy Wood’s approach to music, pick apart why his improvisations are so great, and learn how you can apply it to your own playing, then pick up the full Deluxe masterclass and learn it all from one of the greatest young players out there!
