            Great, another lesson that I never saw before. Porch picking 101. You got me to review that micro lesson right after watching this John.

            Root note patterns >>> CAGED shapes >>> TRIAD'S. Just put in the work and watch your guitar skills soar.

              Sweet pickin’ and that guitar is looking/sounding nice too.

                These old lessons of Brian’s are still pretty popular and you certainly played this pretty well John -:)

                Sometimes the simplest licks sound the best and that Gibson is one sweet guitar.

                    Sounds great on the Hummingbird John!

                          One of my favorite kind of Brian’s lessons. Chords and a few licks!
                          You played that great lick very fluently.
                          Sunday morning is the best time to play.

                          More Blues!
