Wow could not have said it better brother

Just what I needed to hear. Little by little. I know about 7 songs, and I just want to make that big jump to play like Bryan Sutton already!

Dude! Thank you

Im so thankfull for this video. I made an own take on it in dadgad. 🙏

Therapist: John Mayer Gold Rush isn't real it can't hurt you John Mayer Gold Rush:

nice i always like to play this song in a very slow tempo instead of the uplifting versions we all know ... makes it really said too ... nice job man ... my wiff is very ill ... gonna play it on her funeral !

Great lesson Andy Thankyou

Excellent! Very helpful.

I believe Arnold Schultz may have been the most influential guitarist of the 20th century. Not only did he influence Monroe but he also was friends with Mose Rager who inspired Merle Travis who inspired Chet Atkins, Doc, Tommy Emmanuel and all the country chicken pickers. Along with Rager, he knew and influenced Kennedy Jones and Ike Everly who was father to the Everly Brothers. Arnold Shultz knew and inspired some of the founders of bluegrass, country and rock and roll music. Not too shabby for a guy who was never recorded to anyone's knowledge and has only two or three photographs out there.

Really good stuff Andy, thanks for posting.

Doggone it. You make everything sound and seem so easy! I can hear your four note rolls, your in and outs, double stops, just exactly as you teach. Then I go try it…..oh well, back to the drawing board

Every time I watch your videos, I smile in wonder at how you think, play, and improvise. Your talent is truly great!!! Thank you!!

Great playing as always. And a great topic that certainly deserves to be delved into further. The Blues is so important to American music and especially Country and Bluegrass. Arnold Shultz > Bill Monroe, Lesley Riddle > Carter Family, Rufus “Teetot” Payne > Hank Williams, the Blues in general > Jimmie Rodger’s, etc. The one I’ve often really wondered about was Earl Scruggs. Where’d he get the obvious bluesy influence in his playing. Do you know?

Brilliant channel so glad I found it !

All your lessons ate great Andy do you have a tip jar somewhere? Cheers Rob

Each different type of tune "calls for" different speeds. Better slower expressive "clean' playing than playing everything too fast. I think this is more common with new and younger players. As players improve originality becomes more importrant. I hear laments being playing at breakdown speeds.

Great video thanks very much Andy

Best channel for we who know a phone app won't turn you into a picking wonder without hundreds or thousands of hours of serious practice. 😄

Perfect!

Just added you to my subscriptions. Really enjoyed this. Thanks

Love this.. not sure you know how jealous I am and what this does to my life.

excellent explanation of cross picking and how and where to apply it!

I am so glad you have explained what I see at jams that the people playing can't explain. Newbies know what I'm talking about.

That was more solid gold. Thanks!

Great!

I didn't know Mickey was based in Florida, does he do in person lessons ?

Cecil is GREAT!

Love it. I just heard this for the first time at my most recent jam, and have been shedding it. Super fun to play. You kinda hit on all the things I been trying; the f roll, (with c,d,eflat), the "C" lebration, the walk down, double stop turn around from G, to another C lebration.

Great the way you teach Andy rather than frets intervals! Thanks very much

That guitar sound so good!

There's more pretty rolls than one 😂. In all seriousness, though, this series has been exactly what I need. Thank you!

Do you have an audio demo of the songs in your download? either on KZbin or elsewhere...

Thanks great lesson!

Is that a dulcimer?

Nice

8:36 9:11

Love it - Sounds good and has just the right amount of picking to keep it from being repetitive!

Yeah, man!

For me, the late and sadly missed former (1970s) national flatpicking champion Orrin Star was the master of putting pulse and swing into a fiddle tune - never too fast, but packed with musical taste,

Awesome sauce guys!! Great stuff!!

Excellent!

I wish my mistakes sounded as good as yours do!

Really good music - nice and relaxed, great lead from both of y'all.

Such warm tone super pleasant

I really enjoyed this - thanks guys!

As someone newer to bluegrass (and loving your channel!), Sutton's tone did it for me. It's like he has little 1176s in his fingers. So smooth and even at all tempos, and shows incredible control with tunes like Overton Waltz.
