It's not so much improvisation as it is slowly matching chords to where the melody falls on the guitar. TLDR Tabsites okay, leadsheets good, pattern picking great,and Iron & Wine awesome. Rolls, travis picking, and classical stuff always comes in handy when doing your own arrangements or when learning what other people are doing! has a pretty decent collection if I remember right.Īlso check out Iron & Wine and maybe learn some pattern picking. Now again you might have to condense those arrangements into a useable version but hymns are quite pretty and have a lot of good theory backing them up.Īnyhow if you don't read music or have a wide theory knowledge and don't have a mind to learn it(no problem with that!) than I'd say check out any tab site with the songs everyone has listed below.
They have four part harmony most of the time and they show up cheap or free all the time. One last source a lot of people don't think of are choral books. Almost no limit.ĭon't rule out those books for vocal and piano/guitar books either! Often they are set up in a similar format and it's like a puzzle figuring out what you can fit background wise around the melody. Otherwise more specific versions are out all over the place. The "Real Books" that Hal Leonard does are quite good if you like jazz, show tunes, a few pop charts, and who knows what else. Lead sheets can be found online but great sources are fake books. Sometimes it's as simple as playing one extra note or letting a string drone in the background as you play! Taking a melody and learning it all over the neck and than finding a way to comp the chords or do a chord melody in a way that compliments the song. Well I occasionally find cool things online but I really like working from lead sheets.
