The Right Hand

Scale Patterns
Mike talks about some different scale patterns in classic bluegrass songs and how you can use them in your playing. These will help to create more melodic moments in the music.
Finding Minor Chords
Mike shows you how to transform basic major chords into minor chords. This is how you get that spooky, haunting sound that we all love to hear on mandolin.
