This is one of those lessons that I would have paid $500 for back when I was learning the mandolin neck. Folks, don't remain in the dark...learn your fretboards! Put in the hard work, it's worth it!

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.

Take the capo off and play it in open G a few times, then put it back. Helped me hear it.

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

That's the one that made me finally understand backup. Stick with it.

Great question. That's a slide going into the B part — I play it as a slide but a hammer-on works fine if that's cleaner for you. Do what sounds right.
