I knew that the 4th and 7th were omitted to make a pentatonic but nowhere have I ever heard why until this lesson. I'd also not realized the 6th step in a major key is the relative minor so there's no need to memorize them. Couple of nice tips for me....Thank you!
That's an excellent lesson Mike. just using the shapes I was immediately improvising on Loch Lomond. And to top that I then went and instantly played the melody of a tune in E played at last weeks Jam where I refused a solo break as "I don't do solos in E". 😀
Ah great! They've been an eye opener for me as well so I'm glad I was able to communicate their uses in the video. Come and fine me difficult keys ... I'm ready for you :)
I’m new to the mandolin and have watched a vast variety of CZcams mandolin lessons. In short, yours are the best I’ve seen.
Excellent 👍. Thanks!
Thanks so much & welcome to playing mandolin!

You’ve officially made me want to get a mandolin desperately 😂 I might sell one of my electric guitars to make it happen
