    Fun composition, interesting to analyze with ideas from EP483.

    Brian, is this a derivative of EP483? Great composition to highlight EP483, but being in the key of C, the 1 chord lends itself to the A shape making it a lot like EP483 but with open strings. I am struggling transpose the concepts of EP483 to a 1-4-5 that begins with an E shape. A lesson addressing this would be super helpful. EP483 is chock full of great, practical concepts. How come you didn’t offer any explanation with this short lesson? There is great substance in it.

    Hi Brian,
    Thanks again for the great work, I have learned so much from you. You are a great teacher and exactly what I needed to get to where I am now!

    For info, the Video Tab Breakdown segment on this lesson does not play for some reason. I’ve refreshed and tried other things, but no go. Could you fix this?
    Thanks!
    All the Best
    Paul
