On April 17, special guest Sadler Vaden, solo artist and guitarist in the Grammy-winning Alternative Country outfit Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit, will be joining ArtistWorks guitar instructors Paul Gilbert and Guthrie Trapp as they break down their craft and explain their methods of playing guitar. Watch as they discuss (and teach!) their approaches to soloing over chord changes and creating vocal melodies with the guitar, then use classic tunes to demonstrate. They'll have a live Q+A with the audience, give away signed prizes, and discuss ways to take your next steps as a player.

3 Grand-Prize Winners Will Receive:

- Signed music, gear and merch from the artists

- A "Backstage Pass" meet + greet before the event
- One 1-year VIP membership to course of your choice

- $100 Gift Certificate to Guitar Center / Musician's Friend

All sign-ups will be automatically entered to win our next "Big Getaway" in-studio experience, coming Fall 2021!

Sign-up ends on 4/14. Enter now!
