I'm a beginner player who wants to start putting some techniques into action; I saw this performance on Youtube and wondered if I could learn it by ear... then I discovered Sonic...

Nice job but make sure you hit that 3bend to the right pitch. It's flat (overbent) when you hit it at 9 seconds left on the time code. Singing the lick in pitch will help you play...

Very nice guys. I'm getting it. Is there going to be a backing track for this one?

BryanI love Blue Chips too and managed to not to lose any of the three I've acquired. (On UMGF and Mandolin Cafe there's a pretty active market where you can trade and buy and sell...

Hey Bryan, it is indeed a blueChip. In the video I was either using a CT 55 or TAD 60, but lately I've been using a TAD 50. Bluechips are great as long as you don't lose them! :-)

I have the same problem (though probably much worse) than Bill Blatner -- about timing , ahead of the beat, behind the beat, etc. and am hoping that this series will help.  Love...

Hey Chris, That looks like a bluechip pick. What thickness do you like? I'm new to flatpicking but I feel like if I get a heavier pick I lose some of the 'connected' feeling of...

Hi Mike, This is probably going to be my next tune. Do you have the full tab that I can print out? I am trying to follow the transitions through the lessons and piece them...

Hi Corey/Sonic Junction, Is there a lesson one to this song? Were the lyrics posted in that lesson too? Would appreciate any help. Thanks Doc

Tempo, volume and rhythm sound good Doc. I would only add that when you play the bass E note, it is popping too loudly.  Try putting that under control a little bit if you can...

Hi Corey, Here is my upload. Will listen to lesson 1 when it comes out. Appreciate your feedback as always.  Doc  

Honor!

Haha. Couldn't think of a better song title for the times.     Thanks, Corey.

Thanks that's I was told years ago. I've  got good guitar thanks

Depending on the guitar it can be, if it is of low quality,  but most guitars should handle it well. At any rate,  the stress from the strings does not affect the fretboard...

Question? When  you change to open E is it  hard on the fret board.Great tune I'm working on it.Playing guitar keeps my 75 year old hands and fingers  working but playing chords it...

Sounds good doc. All i would say is to come up with a good ending and also pay attention to the rhythm in your intro...it sounded like you dropped time for one beat. Other than...

Hi Corey  just uploaded a video below. A couple of lapses in concentration towards the end but hope it gives you enough to see where I am at to see where I can improve. Thanks,...

Very cool ... I didn't have it quite right from watching you pick the melody in your introductory lesson. Close but not quite right.  What really jumps out at me with this tune...

Hello Friends, This week is our final Mood Indigo lesson. We go over many different ideas for soloing on it. I demonstrate quite a few different riffs that work over the changes...

Hi Dennis, Is there any particular reason to use the 3-hole blow vs. the 2-hole draw, especially on the third chorus? Thanks, Bill

Hello guitar lovers! I can’t believe we’re here at lesson number ten. Song number seven. The social music song bag is filling up! Here’s another tune that works well when it’s time...

Finally, we will explore a few different ideas on how to end the song effectively. These are just suggestions of course, but any ending you come up with (to any song) should be...

Greeting uke family! I hope you’re able to take a break from the community sing alongs that you’re no doubt playing all the time now to learn a new song. This one is for young...

Greetings fellow Junctionites! Jumping back into my 3rd Position Blues Scale stay song, we will be covering the next two choruses this week. During this, we will also be using...

Darren, sounding good! I like the idea of the song getting a little bigger every time. I don't know if it's entirely working on the third time through though, mostly on account of...
