the CAGED system

Do any of you know about this system, it is a method that explains the shapes of the cords C,A,G,E,D and how they are used all over the fret board and how the pentatonics fit with them, I am interested in learning about this system.

delta blues, Robert Johnson

I think some lessons covering the delta blues styles of Robert Johnson and others would be very nice. They do some very nice fingerpicking blues.

Hello my friends, I Have been trying to grow my nails for a couple of months and just when they get close to being good one or two break and chip and then I am back to short nails. Anyone have any tips for keeping them strong and prevent splitting and breaking. Thanks Lou

Re:close up shots during lessons

<t>the left and right hand sections are great, I should have been more specific, I was thinking about a close up view of the leads like the lead in landslide, I know that the tab is there to look at but a close up could be nice too.

creating melodies from scales
