[@derncan7094]

Sort of impulse bought this thing, and I have no idea how to play it. These lessons are great for people in my situation lol

[@johnsprague1678]

Same. Classic. :)

[@krishnanchandran5175]

[@michaeldybdahl4599]

Probably the best impulse buy I've made. And I've made some damn good ones lol

[@gordspringford5603]

Me too

[@denisedvillegas]

Thank you so much for putting yourself out here and doing this. I appreciate it so much as I have just picked up the mandolin and am struggling with making it doable. It’s not easy for me my hands don’t wanna move you know I can I can practice for a little while, and then, my goodness it hurts. Thank you to you and I’ll donate to you when I get a chance and but I just wanna say thank you you’re wonderful.

[@kensharpe5545]

You are hearing it from a grade “A” mandolin beginner. Beings I have never even picked up a mandolin or strummed on one, your lessons have gently guided me along to the place where I can now branch out and track songs in my home studio with acoustic, bass guitar, banjo & ukulele! I will follow your lessons to the very end & beyond. Thank you!!

[@lucywells5704]

My sister and I are both watching your videos learning how to play music together. You're so sweet and helpful and your voice is wonderful. I can tell you really love the music and we really love learning with you!

[@gailapps7335]

wish I'd have found this a long time ago. So easy to follow and well put together. Thankyou!

[@ziddship]

Starting mando in my mid-20s, so Hendricks I will never be. But I am gonna be the best one my stupid fingers will allow. Thanks for the guidance I greatly appreciate it (Mando Calrissian appreciates it too).

[@Blindrock69]

This is a great series. The only feedback I would give on this video is around the strumming pattern, we've only really learned the basic strumming pattern and I can't quite pin down your strumming pattern here, since it seems a little different to the earlier lesson

[@JamesAcrossAmerica]

I came to the comments to see if I was the only one confused buy this. Trying to figure it out 🤔

[@EmileDVazqo]

I've been struggling with this, glad I ain't the only one

[@simplesimon112]

Part 3 at 2.15 simple as that

[@dishwater._]

1:08 is when he first sings the song for anyone else that needs to keep going back to this part.

[@lornahudson45]

Thanking you. Your lessons are clear & concise. As an older person getting back into music & a true beginner with a mandolin. Really learning a lot. Getting excited.

[@markymark3916]

These are the best online. Thank you

[@lynneellis1540]

I've been a piano and woodwind player most of my life. My mom played mandolin, a bit, I've had her 80 year old mandolin for 3 years. It's in beautiful shape. I spent some time in Mountain View Arkansa and was inspired to learn mom's mandolin. Your video popped up somehow when I was playing along with some big band tunes. Serendipity. Thank you.

[@lynneellis1540]

string just broke

[@sbonyba]

These lessons are a strong encouragement for purchase of a mandolin. Very nice work, sir. You give a quick and easy start.

[@niceque7001]

You are one great teacher, just got into it and these lessons make it so easy to keep up and learn

[@BBoutdoorsWV]

You are an amazing teacher … I am a fiddler who recently picked up a mandolin. I was good through lesson 5…. Been practicing lesson 5 for a few days now. Thank you!!!!

[@clarkmccrimmon8568]

Thank you for these lessons, I've always loved the mandolin, this looks very daunting, but your excellent teaching method makes me feel more confident.

[@janesawgirl3856]

You are a great teacher!

[@sarahsadler2715]

Lessons are awesome. Thanks so much!!

[@scrub_lord]

great video. im learning a lot and ive only had a mandolin for 2 days now. luckily ive had a few years of guitar experience so the mandolin doesnt seem completely foreign. anyways thank you for the lessons even though the mandolin isnt the most popular instrument right now. hopefully we can bring it into the limelight a little more.

[@klmain1]

Your lessons are just fantastic. I’m starting over using your guidance. Wish I would’ve found you sooner! Thanks so much for bringing music back into my life!

[@ashliwilson2381]

I’m so excited about this! I’m asking for a mandolin for Christmas and can’t wait. My daughter has taken Suzuki violin for years and I know all the violin strings and notes so I think I will pick it up quickly. Thanks so much for these fantastic videos!!! Any recommendations on a brand or what price point I should I look in?

[@flyspray300gnet9]

Good! Nice..!

[@MrNothing12340987]

hey baron I love the videos and am so appreciative of the help! I was wondering, in the verses are you switching to an A chord during the turnaround? Thanks in advance!

[@berthavazquez4168]

You are adding upstrokes sometimes. I cannot tell when, every third bass note set?

[@AnnaGonzalez-wv9sc]

Just love iti have a hard time to play the cords with my left, i have to train my right hand, hahah.

[@greedz6687]

TY fot this lessons)

[@TheRealFacemanguy]

Good video but I just can't get over the fact you look just like my chemistry professor

[@connorsteele5742]

When switching to the D are you strumming all 4 sets of strings twice? Or are you still adding the base?

[@vipanchoudhary7714]

Please make tab tutorial on hindi song e meri Johar jabi tujhe maluum nahi . ... All time favourite indian song ...... Millions of people in India loved your efforts

[@michaelfitzgerald8253]

Cool cool cool

[@martinfalagario8625]

Hola estoy empezando a estudiar mandolina y estoy haciendo las lecciones, queria preguntar por el tono de la canción que versión están haciendo? por que la original esta en otro tono! gracias

[@larrymartin8108]

What is a good quality instrument for a beginner, that doesn’t require a lot of setup or fine tuning?

[@forexample9954]

Depending on where you stay, the prices, quality and brands available may change. I had great luck getting properly set up instruments from www.mandolincafe.com/forum/ and get a ton of advice that was specific to my region. Good luck

[@Sam-m8b7l]

Wish you could have named the frets and strings you used

[@thecoastergnome8603]

im trying to pin down when you add the upstrokes, seems random to me I cant see the pattern

[@mllnobody7669]

1:10

[@shannonwillis5182]

Can these lessons be had on a cd

[@shanecann1469]

Fuck yea!

[@tgozanski]

Where do I get one of them armrests?

[@theonlynormalfreak]

this

[@dudemuffin3023]

I can’t find the lyrics

[@claffert]

It's probably too late for this answer, but a link to the lyrics are on the actual Mandolessons site.

[@randystroud6513]

I have just started learning. So I need to buy an instrument. What is the brand name and model of your mandolin? I don't want to start with a cheap one.

[@ziddship]

Don't be afraid of the $50 mandolin! The Rouge RM-100A is a great option with reliable tuners. Look up some sound samples, you might be pleasently suprised.

[@codymac181]

Randy Stroud What did you end up getting? I got the $100 (forget the brand) one off amazon a couple of years ago started then moved..anyway to make a long story short I just bought a new Eastman 315 for $700 and am in love with it. Get what will make you want to play and don’t stop playing!

[@MrBub-pp7re]

Lol I sung a different version of this song for a choir

Other than Allison Krauss and Dan Timynski I don't think bluegrass singers are really known for their excellent vocals.😉
