Phänomenal 😊
Great will you be putting up a banjo version as well now that you have the guitar and mandolin covered??? I hope so...Thanks
Already locked in 👍. Loving this tune!!
Awesome ear ,heart and hand candies 🎉😊❤
Lovely 👏👍
Thank you.❤
❤🧡❤
Yeah, I like it. A relief from Ye Olde Bluegrasse...& nice to hear an accent & manner closer to home 😊
Thanks Bruce 👍
Nice work. I've never heard someone in the bluegrass genre call a minim a minim.
Yeah, I generally try not to use minim….to save confusion!! I used the quaver/crotchet/minim terminology at one time and had several bizarre comments, eighth, quarter and half seem to be better with the Aussie accent 😂😂
So how long does it take to get my muscle memory up to speed on the triplets? Years?
Please,can you do a turturiel of kitchen girl for Banjo? Thank you.🪕🥰👍
Absolutely!! 👍
please?what reed do you use?
Hi, what are you referring to?
@@pickinlessons the pick
@@pickinlessonsHow many millimeters is the reed you play?
No worries, I use a 1.4mm (TAD 50) Bluechip 👍
Obrigado
I just started learning this tune on the mandolin - using notation; but I also am trying to learn it on the guitar...love you lesson thank you
Great work!
Nice Finger skills
Wonderfully new inspiration
I'm in my eighties and I remember this melody as a child. After all these years I came across your The Ash Grove lesson and watched your lesson carefully. I'm learning the mandolin and impressed by your learning method, particularly the explanations and examples. Thank you for this song and breaking it down to into easy to follow sections. Cheers Alan Lee
Wonderful, Alan! I’m glad to hear you’re finding it helpful. Cheers, Heath.
Great lesson and tips, thank you for sharing your knowledge !
You’re welcome ☺️
How nice to click on a guitar video and the presenter is another Australian!
Amazing tune
It’s a great one for sure 👍
NICELY DONE SIR ! EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR ... THANKS MUCH ! !
You're welcome!
Thanks what a great and helpful lesson
You're very welcome!
Please,what Banjo do you use,Joy?😊
It’s a Prucha. The model is the Fall in Love 👍
Thank you very much for this lesson... it is very inspirational!
You're very welcome!
great video
This is a really helpful way to build out some simple really great sounding licks. Looking fwd to more
Preise,What Kind of Banjo Do RUclips User?Hoe is IT called?Thank you
This banjo is a Prucha ‘Fall in Love’
Nice to hear the Irish standards! We dont play them on this side of the pond
Pretty Cool!
Gret teacher, already learnt so mucj in first 30 mins. Im fairly experienced gultarist (15 years) and bliegrass has alwasy eluded me. I am still fidin the pace and timing an issue. Does anyone else find this going from other genres onto BG?
Bluegrass is certainly a hard genre to play on the guitar. Very different approach to rock or similar styles.
Nice Prucha!
REAL NICE, man!
Thanks, Joe!
Saludos desde Argentina Amo el blues y esta música genera mucha pasión. Gracias por enseñar 😀
🪕🥰
Bravo. Just learnt this on the guitar.
Nice!!
Thank you so much for this, I’m actually using your play through as a lovely pairing to accompany me on the clawhammer banjo:)
Lovely!
Really plectrum, no 5th string involved.
The 5th string certainly is involved 😊. When required for the melody, a little in part A, more in part B. It’s the nature of the single-string and melodic techniques.
That’s Awesome… I need to learn to read tabs faster!
That Santa Cruz man... it's gorgeous!!
Thanks man! It’s very sweet to play
Isn’t this single string? Or melodic?
Melodic 😊
Is that a capo on the nut?
Yeah, not in use 😊
Pickin' Lessons, I loved this video so much, I had to hit the like button!
Awesome! Thank you!
Amazing 😮
Thanks 😄
His name is Zayne and has loved guitar since his birth. He’s 2 years young but is more like a 4 year old in wisdom. Thank you again, Sir!
Hello good sir, I commented on lesson 1, and am working Thru lesson 2. Each day I practice I get a bit smoother and make fine tune adjustments. I’m starting to get the hang of this. My 2 year old nephew in NYC loves the progress, which I know will take patience and practice (lots of it.) Thanks for all you are doing, good sir! From So. California , USA
Great job! Keep it up 👍
Love this version and style. So nice to hear music being played slow and easy on a banjo that's not played Scruggs bluegrass style going a hundred miles an hour.
Many thanks! The banjo certainly serves it well
I have been playing classic 60s 70s R&R, blues,.country and some jazz for 60 years. I recently retired to pretty much bluegrass heaven. I figured it is time to get with the program. Thank you for the video, I have to admit Clarence White is my favorite guitarist and I did get to see him three times with the Byrds. I went to a lot of concerts with big name guitar players and I do believe he was the best I ever saw. He would have been a real monster, he was stretching out from his bluegrass roots and who knows what he might have become? I will practice and listen to some more bluegrass. When it is good, it kicks butt. I never got to play any. My dexterity is there, no problem. Subscription added, thumbs up.
How cool to have seen Clarence! Sounds like the bluegrass bug has bit!
@@pickinlessons I am finishing up a recording of a Chicago Style blues tune and the third example, to my surprise, worked just as well for a blues rift in the key of E. Click my avatar for some originals if interested.
❤❤❤
Very well presented lesson. Thanks!
Im a 69 yr Jazz/Blues singer and gùitarist. You teach very well and have an open mind approach. (Subscribed )
Thank you 😊
Australian bluegrass music?? Amazing!
