This tutorial showcases YOAV's unique approach to song writing and composition. YOAV guides us through each stage of his song Beautiful Lie, demonstrating all the chords as well as how he achieves drum beats and synthesized sounds using only an acoustic guitar, sample/loop pedal and an array of effects. He also takes you through the alternative (D-G-C-F-A-D) guitar tuning used for the track!
The basic guitar part to this song is fairly simple to master and sounds good with or without the effects. For those wishing to take things a little further, the loop/pedals element provides both a challenge and fascinating insight into just what you can do with a humble acoustic guitar and some modern technology.

Difficulty Key
-
One
Perfect for beginners. Uses basic techniques with not too many changes.
-
Two
Slightly more complex techniques. Still great for anyone who's just starting out.
-
Three
Perfect for you if you've been playing for a while and have mastered the basics. Not too hard but may require a bit more time if you've only just started playing.
-
Four
Fairly advanced. Will need more practice to master as probably uses more advanced techniques.
-
Five
Advanced. Not one for beginners but recommended to anyone who's mastered the basics as well as some more advanced techniques and is ready for something a little more challenging.
The unique sound YOAV creates is mainly down to the way he uses his guitar to make different percussion sounds and then samples them live to create loops, mixing them with effects and gradually building arrangements of what often sound like completely different instruments.
