Bill Cheatham- Melody

guitar intermediate

In this lesson

I taught an advanced version with lots of tricks years ago, but here's a straight-ahead melody version. We also work on fret-hand economy as we shift positions.

    Got about 80% of this one down but the third measure keeps tripping me. Anybody else find that part awkward at speed?

    The pinky thing goes away, I promise. Took me about three months.

    Answered over in the tab thread too, but short version: play what's comfortable, the tab is a map not a law.

    Metronome at 60 and no faster until it's clean twice through. Boring but it works.
