Have you ever tried having the camera above your shoulder and filming your breaks that way? I believe it would make it easier to see where you are placing your fingers.
I'm happy to help. I am playing in the open A position to start. There is an A major scale down on the first few frets and with some open strings. Think "Old Joe Clark" area of the fret board.
The other part o the break goes up to the closed A chord position. Do a Google search for "Monroe Style" and "chord boxes." That will help.
Great mando playing! Thanks for all the instrucional videos. I just started playing mandolin recently but have played guitar for 26 years. I'm really enjoying the mando and have been learning some licks from some of your videos. They're great.
Very nice, Kevin! I really like your playing. How long have you been picking? I'm pretty new to the mandolin and can only hope that with an hour+ a day I can play like you sometime down the road. Anyway, thanks for sharing!
Great playing!
