John Hardy

In this lesson

Here are two GREAT breaks for John Hardy! The first is a straight-ahead "Scruggs" style break that any level of picker would enjoy, and the second is a Bela Fleck inspired lead that really tickles yer ears!

    Slowed the video to 50% and worked it a measure at a time. Two weeks in and it's coming. Patience is the lesson here as much as the notes.

    Not just you. I still count this one out loud and I've been at it four years.

    Count it out loud. Everyone says it and everyone's right.

    Try it without the pick for a few passes. Sounds silly but it told me my right hand was doing too much.

    Recording yourself is humbling but it's the fastest fix I've found.

    There's a slower track in the resources for this one. If you want it slower still, let me know and I'll cut one.
