In this lesson, I'm going to show you 3 examples of how to use pedal points (also sometimes called Pedal Tones) in your ambient guitar music.

The principle is quite simple: we are going to drone a note and glue it there for the entire song.

It can be a simple backdrop for some improvisation, up to a huge layered soundscape - and I'll cover all of that in this video!
