Mandolin Bag O' Licks in G! Learn to solo/improvise in the key of G!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 жов 2024
- This lesson teaches you 8 different G licks, and 4 licks each of C, D, and E minor. We then learn how to put them together over an "example" chord progression, but most importantly, I teach you how to apply them to songs YOU play in the key of G! The number one request I get from my students is to learn how to solo in different keys, which is why my "Bag O' Licks" lesson series are by far the most popular I've done. Don't forget to download the rhythm MP3 tracks to create your own solos from lick combinations!

This is great stuff. Just what I was looking for and great teaching!
Chewy but Delicious 😋

Been learning mandolin during lockdown here in uk your lessons Ben have been superb and keep me wanting to move on to next level cheers
Excellent lessons. You've got me excited to practice my mandolin again.
My favorite lesson banjo ben! I watch over a lot. Always fun watching your videos. God bless

THANKS SO MUCH... loved it and am drinking it in!
I'm a flatpicker and was given a mandolin today. This should be fun
sweet just got my mando today thanks for the chops and lesson. made it easier to map out the fretboard
Man, love that solo!
Great lesson Ben. Thanks. I may have to buy the full lesson. You make it very interesting. The clarity in your playing is very good. That is what I am trying to improve at present.
Thank you!
This exactly what I needed to learn. Thanks!
Im mostly a metal guy but am into all kinds; cannibal corpse, depche mode, to Robert Johnson. I have dean, an Ibanez knock off and an Oscar Schmidt. I got a nice Savannah mandolin today, and your videos were the first I looked at for mandolin vids. Never imagined myself owning a mandolin. I really do like it! I'm very happy I didn't pass up the opportunity to own a mandolin.
Just a wonderful lesson, brother.
Thank you for this. I just bought a mandolin just because I felt like it. I'm a piano and guitar player and I want to learn the mandolin and banjo also. You seem like the go-to guy! I'll be paying attention to you. Rock on!
Cool! Welcome!
Thanks! Great lesson on how to get a lot of mileage out of a couple of simple licks. And since they are scale-based I can just transpose and use them in any key.
Very helpful. Love the Aggie paraphernalia! Gig em!
Ben you are SOOOOO talented,
Can you do a "Bag O' licks B" That would be awesome!!
I always loved you then but then I heard that you are close to Dennis Parker right on man I'd like to hear you guys play some thanks for being cool with dennis that's my guy
This is awesome.
That helps tremendously thanks
On your site do you have note notation as well for those of us who read music?
Banjo..Ben Clark u.sure helped alot as. my instructor it seems easy.to lean when u teach

Hey Ben! Did you go to South Plains College in 2002-2003?
Yep, that's me!
@@BanjoBen Nice! I thought I recognized you. I was a student there at the same time. I'm Andy, mandolin player. We played a party together in Lubbock at a swanky home. I was always in awe of how well you played. So glad you are doing well!

MAESTRO!!!
thanks loads
love it
The first lick is the "Lester Flat G Run" with a walk down to end it.
So I can just take the G lick and pretty much put it in any song?
Cordell Hammack any song that is in the key of g
I'm going to make it a point to tune in more B.B.!
Great! I'll be glad to have you around!
Hey Ben, I have a very good sounding Gibson open-backed tenor jr from the 20's. I love that thing. It's light, has one Gibson tension rod, 20 frets, and a "snakehead" headstock, which is cool. The tenor allows me to play movable chords I practice on mando, just a bit differently. The tenor stuff is lacking on UA-cam, there are just a few teachers. I recently found an old Elton mute for the Grover no-tip bridge, and it's like having both in one, a tenor guitar and a (less intense) trad. banjo.
Sweet
does it matter whether i strum up or down on a single note?
Desiree Yanes Most people agree that alternate picking is the best way around a mando. It's just a good technique to be able to pick a series of single notes faster.
hey bro what is the model of your mandolin?and how much is it?
That's a Gibson F-5G and I don't know how they're going for now ;)
That's a Gibson F-5G...don't know how much they run nowadays.
about $90 which will be better?
Tyu
What kinda mando are you playing
This is a Gibson F-5g. Thanks!

You talk too much. Play, brother.
I have gotten so much out of this lesson, the only thing that bothers me is when you say “now play a solo son” and then later “now son you can go to Nashville” I know it’s just a traditional ad lib but it doesn’t feel very inclusive to your audience who aren’t male.
This is possible the dumbest comment I have ever read. Get over yourself. It is just an ad-lib.
Some people just can't wait to get offended. They're waiting, searching, digging to find anything that can possibly be offencive to somebody, anybody. They're called sjw's. Nobody likes them.
Has anyone ever told you that folks of your ilk are exactly what's wrong with this country/world? Sure they have, I just wanted to give you some reassurance that not many people care about your dang wittle feelings. God almighty you people are insufferable
