In This Course:
- Swing bowing
- Different types of scales and finger patterns
- Playing a head or melody

[@guygetsrich]

This is fantastic. Are there any plans for Chris to release a course pitched at this level of proficiency? I am concerned that the intermediate course may be a little ahead of me at the moment

How can I hook up on Rock song about Diesel Truck shop owner who was given an AI gift song. But he wanted my voice ! GAK! I refused and offers to skewer myself on the Seattle Space needle instead. So he asked me to write one. It’s a 2 minute smoker. Power guitars. I thought a hot violin might work for the short instrumental break. Who could do it and what would it cost to help me fart on that AI song? Ha
