Acoustic Light

Simply put, acoustic guitars are great. They can impress the opposite sex and channel your creativity into a productive and enjoyable outlet. But, most importantly, having a guitar around will help keep you sane and entertained at the peek of your boredom. It can be a tricky instrument to learn, but once you know it, it becomes hobby that most players cherish. Learning to play guitar can be hard enough, but writing your own songs in another story.

Not everyone can write hit songs like The Beatles can, so the next best thing for a guitarist is to learn and perfect the songs already out there. This can also be quite difficult as most songs are played with up to three to five instruments, with many of them containing several effects to achieve the perfect sound. But, despite the complexity of popular songs, more and more acoustic covers, played with just one acoustic guitar, are emerging in concerts, studio sessions, and of course, by the fans themselves.

When it comes to structure, popular songs on the charts today can range from extremely complex to very simple. And when it comes to covering those songs, there are very different levels of appreciation. Songs like Oasis' "Wonderwall," most likely appeared at every campfire and sing along you have ever been to, simply because it is a popular, catchy, and relatively easy song to play on acoustic guitar. Meanwhile, for example, a rap hit like Dr. Dre's, Forgot About Dre," are not as popular with acoustic guitar players. While there are plenty of songs perfectly complimented by an acoustic cover, many more exist that have yet to be transformed into their acoustic version.

But why do guitar players bother with such difficult and "un-acoustic" songs? Because converting a song into an acoustic cover is just as good as writing a song yourself, so to speak. By creating an acoustic guitar cover of rap, hip-ho, or heavy metal songs, a whole new sound is discovered. Breaking down the song into a few easy chords while singing along in your own tone and tempo can reveal just how unique and original the song really is.

Acoustic guitar covers are a guitarists way of turning their favourite popular songs into their own masterpiece. An acoustic cover can shed new light on an old classic or re-establish a modern song in its own right. But, most importantly, acoustic guitar covers allow for all of these remakes without any fancy equipment or a backing band. All it takes is an acoustic guitar, some creative instincts, and a truly devoted guitarist.
