Hi Boyd R. While these lessons are a bit advanced, the beginner can still learn greatly. They are geared to get you playing some of these songs fastly no matter if you're a beginner or more advanced player. Give it a try and take your time...use the loops to repeat routines, and should you have any questions feel free to send me a message!

what if your fingers can't stretch from 2nd fret to the 5 fert. That what can you do

Guy Davis
Guy Davis Oct 11, 2015

Reply to Boyd R:

If the stretch is difficult because you need more practice, then you know what to do. If your hands are literally too small to make the stretch, then create a way. Try capoing up a few frets to lessen the space your fingers have to cover. Ultimately, you might try lifting the index finger, which bars the second fret, off of the neck while your pinky does its work on the 5th fret.( As long as you keep hitting the open A string with your thumb at regular quarter note intervals, your fingers can get away with a lot). You could resolve the sequence by doing a barred A cord at the 5th fret.

Looking Sharp  a lot lesson to take in I'm still working on Horton Shuffle and also three other songs. Really learning a lot thanks for being here.

Thanks - I'm glad to be here working on styles and techniques of the masters. George did a great job of combining techniques too, as you can see (and hear) with his tremolo-octaves and such. Making sure you have a good grasp of the techniques individually first I found is usually the easiest way to learn any nuanced piece. Enjoy it!
