Sounds great and seems like it’ll be a lot of fun to play! Thanks Brian
Just found Active Melody – Wow do I love Brian’s style – Can’t wait to dig in !!! Thanks !
Hang in there because Brian just gets better and better … and so will you!
Great lesson, I’ve been playing cowboy chords for along time. An in the first few seconds I learned something new and cool, next practice I’ll be using it. I play 12 string guitar a lot , I always go to the wreck of the Edmond Fitzgerald or horse with no name or some bad company. Anyway, I play it like I would a 6 string. Is there anything I’m missing, would you play 12 any different than a 6?
Same on a 12 string
Seems like, when you talk, I am understanding what you are saying….more often…gettin kinda scary✌️🎸🚴♀️🏍🪂🍀
Yah Hoo!! Liking this Bluegrass more all the time. Love all these runs & fills. Lots of fun. Keep up the good work. Thanks for all the different varieties’. of music you teach .This really helps my left-right hand sync getting better. Dave

Brain? Truth tho
after watching ep 178 i see why you wouldnt do more like it…….,way above our pay grade. you are much better than you say you are,and that was years ago. wish i could see more of that.
Excellent lesson, brings back memories of playing with my dad, we had a little ditty similar to that that was a staple on the play list. LOL

Another fun tune. Looking forward to my next barn dance.
BTW, why no Guitar Pro File? A lot of other teachers offer them.
Hey David, I put the soundslice option up instead of guitar pro – I learned years ago not to give the Guitar pro master tab files away because I was finding the titles edited and other people using them.
Loved this lesson its kinda the way i play anyway and you enhanced it thanks Stan
I think you’d like that F chord because it’s a C mixolydian progression. Nice instinctive touch!
Some Billy Strings style solos ?
Another great lesson, thanks Brian. Turned on a few people to Your site an they love it too.
Hi Brian, I really liked and enjoyed this style rhythm and lead. With different voicing , triad ect.. I hope you post more . Thanks ken
Please, more Twangy stuff like this! Where does one find glasses that match an old spruce top!
Understanding Neil Young better with this lesson. Hearing “Tell Me Why’ among other of his tunes,
Also hearing intro to ‘I’m Looking Through You’ with G and D triads. Nice to understand why it works vs where do I put my fingers. Thanks, Brian.

‘I’m Looking Through You’ with G and D triads on intro. Nice to understand why it works vs where do I put my fingers. Thanks, Brian.
Love the notes about acoustic leads, double stops and using chord rhythms. Thanks as usual!
You have certainly come a long way from ” Shape A and Shape B” from the early days.
Lester Flatt G run, first thing i learned on guitar.
Great!
