By published

Lily Maase recently dropped by the Acoustic Nation studio to help us brush up on our picking and strumming skills.

And of course, we couldn’t let the Brooklyn-based guitarist leave without performing a song of her own.

Below, Maase plays us her original tune, “Reduction Sketch.”

“It’s the first thing I wrote when I moved to New York almost a decade ago,” she shares. The track demonstrates traditional picking, hybrid picking, and classical/fingerstyle picking and is in four(!) different time signatures!
