This chordal study follows the same progression as "Salty Dog Blues"...which is a standard amongst bluegrass players. However, played as a fingerpicking piece, it takes on more of the traditional ragtime blues feel.
Notes: Be sure to first learn the progression itself with a flatpick...so that you're completely comfortable with the changes. And, since you've already memorized our 4 Fingerpicking Patterns in previous lessons, you should be well prepared to tackle this study.
Picking Hand: T = Thumb I = Index Finger M = Middle Finger
