        I had been playing guitar about 5 years when I found Brian’s video almost a year ago. At that point in my playing I was self taught and could play chords in a couple of positions but that was it. I stumbled upon the Delta Blues lesson and I made a goal that I wanted to get Brian’s lesson down. It took a solid month of practice to get it down somewhat consistently…on this video I did another bar with some drop 2 strumming. Anyways, this is my first post and my first video playing guitar. I am seriously considering becoming a premium member. Thanks again Brian! https://youtu.be/c-_g9pTuBiU

          Pretty cool, Tyson. You’ve got the blues in your soul. Try EP065 finger style and see what you can do.

            What a way to make an entrance, a month well spent going by the way you played that.
            Well done man and welcome to AM.

                Hi, Tyson! This is pretty cool lesson, always on the top of my playlist too. I’m using it as a intro to 065-066.
                Great playing.

                  Tyson, You sound great! You played well. Certainly gave us the spirit of the M. Delta. Could feel the steam, humidity and see the river boat (ha ha)!! You guitar complements this genre very well, too.
