Thank you Chris! Megan Lynch Chowning did a great video on it too, and the other day at the Oldtime jam, when the bluegrass Dailey's Reel in b flat came along, it really helped me at least get a skeleton of the melody. I appreciate being able to review it again with you. All the best from the PNW!
I first learned this from Megan at a camp. But it's always good to see someone else's version. Thanks, Chris. I especially liked seeing you improvise over tunes to show what can be done.
Yes, she did. She originally taught the I, IV, V chord fingering. I kept that handout in my case for years. I'm working on more advanced improvising now, which is where your video is great.
Thanks for the clear explanation of a very useful technique. What a great song you chose on which to illustrate it ("Your Love Is Like A Flower"). I had never heard it. And, I love your shirt!!
Great video Chris! I use this technique on the regular. It’s a must for improvisation and playing over those non standard keys. Idea for another video would be to explain how to use this technique to access the relative minor scale (playing/targeting the third finger below the root). Also, I could use a ten licks video that focuses on using this technique. I’m stuck using the same four or five. You had some great sounding blues licks in there. Keep up the great work!
Amazing , fascinating , I never never heard of this , your knowledge is crazy ; how is it you're not teaching at a college ? Man , your knowledge blows my mind , thanks , moe
you have the best videos for fiddle wow.
Thanks Pierre!
can't wait to use this to get into harder keys in Bluegrass fiddle
Excellent advice and very well demonstrated Chris. Thank you. 👍
Thanks John!
Holy crap that is really useful! Thanks!
You're welcome!
Mind. Blown.

Hi Brenden, glad you found this useful!

@@ssgiddyup Thanks. Did Megan also call it the "fiddle capo"?
Yes, she did. She originally taught the I, IV, V chord fingering. I kept that handout in my case for years. I'm working on more advanced improvising now, which is where your video is great.
Thanks for this. Actually it feels really useful to have done all the scales practice in different positions to look at from this context!
It finally makes sense 😃
Glad to hear it!
I really enjoy your instructions
Thanks!

Glad you found this useful. And I'm glad you like the shirt! First time I've ever bought one online!
Thanks!
Big huge help for playing with guitars fond of keys of B and E.
Awesome as usual...great shirt btw! 😁
Thanks!

Thanks Moe, glad you found this useful!
I think of it as a bar as in bar cords on a guitar.
Yes, I'd say that's actually a more accurate description.
what ARE YOU “on” about!?
Hi Daniel. Did you watch the video? Does something not make sense?
