mandolin intermediate

In this lesson

The guitar solo is first, but stick around for a tasty mandolin take on this classic hymn! I love the space in this arrangement combined with the syncopation!

    Ben, this one finally made the timing click for me. Been fighting it for a month. Thank you.

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

    Don't force the pinky stretch. Move your thumb down behind the neck first and the stretch mostly takes care of itself.
