[joeylodes]

[imaumbn]

[tim39plotz]

[800988]

Holy cow! Your room is a mess!

[CalDeRosia]

YOUR SUPER GOOD AND IT BLOWS MY MIND!

[ThePronePhase]

was the pointless bible verse needed? i came to learn something not read the bible

[ericnlisa4Christ]

@ThePronePhase Maybe it's about what is important to her!

It's her video

[TranceNotes]

Does anyone know what is the tune playing in the background of the intro of this video? TIA...

[realmiguel1]

Very good - Thank you!

[corkyjmc]

The best "runs" instruction that I've found on YouTube. You are a natural born musician/teacher.

[alyrerb]

I've been playing for 35 years and you just taught me a new lick...we are ALL beginners in some way....thank-you

[DW00000]

you are awsome girl !!!!! ;)

[DocDawning]

I'm a beginner too, though you play that so well, I think I'm more so than you.. ha ha ha, thanks for the cool vid, That was pretty exciting to see. And the close up with your fingers on the fretboard is extremely extremely helpful. You're awesome (and cute). ha ha, thanks again!

[hangdogit]

Nice job! I especially liked the slow close-ups to see just what you are doing.

One point: On the first "classic" (Lester Flatt) G run, try adding a "D' (on the open D sting) just before the final "G" note is played -- it sounds more fluid (although a bit harder).

[kevinyates64]

Really helpful video. Thanks. You have a really fluid left hand and are very humble to call yourself a beginner. Great choice of Bible verse too!

[fngrpkn06]

Fantastic pickin'!

[alouxe01]

so cute and so great player ! Kiss from France

[claux23]

I agree with the other comments. You're no beginner playing licks like that.

[divemasterbyrd]

Bless your heart fot the modesty you display. I expect you to become a

professional in no time. You have a knack which I have never seen

I wish I was 'only' a beginner such as your self, I may be on the circuit

by now.

[MuttleyEason]

After playing classical and shred for years, it'snice to see this video. I wouldn't have thought of adding the open A and Bb into the run, and the bluesy/blue grass riff I'm usinging already. You rock. Post more.

[blusygal]

Hi I really enjoyed your lesson hope you do more ! Great job !

[MrRockmeister1]

Great video and you are not a beginner at all. You play very well.

[drunkpunk55]

I got that same guitar :)

It went once around the globe with me and had to sustain all kinds of weather, airplanes and what not, in a torn up soft case... not once did she let me down and it just seems like she sounds better every day...

that piece of wood is worth every penny I paid for it and far more...

and nice video btw ;)

[weatherreport09]

You explained it well, I was able to copy the run after a few tries. I'm working on getting out of my pentatonic blues rut, this helped. I like the way you kept things to just a few simple runs, I thinks its best to learn in small steps.

[olecash]

VERY GOOD! :D Thank you! You really helped me ;)

[crosswalkstudios]

Very good! I really like the scripture at the beginning; that's definitely something to respect. Keep on playing!

[ScottPatrick78]

Very nice! Can you do a video on bass runs?

[brandonch25]

ive got that same guitar lol, i would like to see more

[peggysbass]

Beginner? Compared to who? Thanks for the video. I'm already practicing what I've learned. Can't wait to see more.

[Adam777s]

your cool . do u like scotland

[sportsterlad]

I could sit here all night and the following day just watchin' your guitar lessons! You're a fine teacher. Let's see some more of what you got.

You make it all seem so easy. Makes me wanna put my banjo on the shelf and pick up my guitar again!

[raylebest]

Très bien j'ai adoré

[gmn52]

A tip of the hat to Lester Flatt. He's the originator of that first run.

[owsleyforkmusic]

Blueridge Br-40?

[qwerly45]

Modesty much? No beginner here.

[snake27317]

i am a wanna be you can flat play that guitar, your real good its really hard to learn all of them rhytm licks and then put them in timing to the song. you do that really well

[Pleasum]

Great stuff!  You don't play like a beginner! I love the one you came up with starting on the F.

[ChristinaDinetti]

The video was REALLY helpful, and you get bonus points for the Bible verse in the beginning. :)

[spwb2k]

beginner...lol. As in "I begin, er, playing when I was a baby?"

:)

[mikeblooms4me]

Myself and a few friends have a small independent jam band. Although the covers we do are all over the map, my brother and I were both trained in bluegrass picking by our father, who passed away in 2003. The licks you are teaching here are spot-on just like the ones dad taught. A great post!

[insaneguitarfreak]

thanks for this cool melodies ^^

Facundo (Arg)

[leedsber]

you are no beginner girl, i saw that right hand start to take off! nice! thanks!

[Angelcitysoul]

Great job. Thank you!

[snake27317]

a begginer my ass you play way to well for that.

[blipradar]

@snake27317 My ass as well! You are very good from my stand point!

[mountnhome]

Nice Blueridge.. I have a BR-140..LOVE it..

[JesseJames58]

When you are picking them notes are you picking them down and up on each note. For eg: Do you pick the same note twice before moving to the next one.

If there is anything that may help is to show your picking hand moreso along with the chords.

For some reason I am having a battle trying to sort it out.

[bluesbassdad]

Is it just my poor sense of time, or are you playing about ten times faster than anyone a true beginner? lol

Seriously you are amazingly fluid with your runs. Like some of the best bluegrass banjo players you play without a hitch at a speed almost faster than I can listen.

A beginner for longer than you've been alive I doubt that I'll ever match your speed and grace.

I wonder whether my Blueridge (BR-160A-2) would sound better with you playing it. I'm guessing it would.

[JesseJames58]

You said you are pretty much a beginner on the guitar, then I would love to see you play when you can play above this level. I think you are just fabulous on the guitar. If you are a beginner on this, well you would need ear plugs to listen to me.

I am printing these licks out so I can gradually get to do them, and after that I will try to do them along with you in those sporatic runs you do on here. This really helps me out.

[dickbutz]

These are excellent!, however I am a total beginner and I was wondering if you could attach tabs to your instructional videos. They would help me tremendously...I have just started at the age of 67 and totally love Bluegrass, religious and Gaelic music...Make more and keep it up...Think of possibly a simple web site for the videos and tabs...Dick Butz

[Firebird3509576]

Is that a Blueridge Guitar? Is so, what do you think of it? I am looking for an acoustic with a really think neck.

[TheArWhistler]

It sounds great, but you didn't teach anyone how to make the first G-run. A viewer can not tell which strings you are plucking (a very common problem with these type videos). I can only see your left hand, but I do not know what, if any, strings that are plucked "OPEN". A rank beginner such as myself is not helped much when key details are omitted. You SOUNDED great though. Maybe show the tabulation next time while you are doing the demo would help.

[briansmokes]

@TheArWhistler everything comes with practice. this video, having a very nice left hand closeup, is perfect to practice your ability to play by ear or by watching. these abilities dont come on there own

[Lunarmoonbase2]

@TheArWhistler Whatever string she's fingering, that's the string to be plucked.

[BertisEvil66]

cool thanks !!

[sparrabag]

great!

[HoldFastTheTruth]

Your strumming ain't beginner!! "O LORD my God, I cried out to You, and You healed me. O LORD, You brought my soul up from the grave."

[Rikk303]

you're a beginner?



[WheezyE]

Thanks! Got some new tricks up my sleeve for bluegrass jams now :)

[chickenfarm09]

I appreciate the video, but I can't tell much about what you're doing especially with your strumming hand.

[irchristo]

very good

[RAIDFACERS]

that was awesome!

[dewaynecullen]

beginner my behind! awesome - my six year old girl wants to play the guitar so she has watched this a few times - (her short stubby fingers have a hard time :)

[WayLandWay]

beginner?? that was great, and played very well it sounds pretty advanced if you ask me

[ekim2003]

good stuff Bonnie!

[rmauderer]

I loved your video, your spirit of graciousness, and scripture beforehand! May God honor your desire to honor Him!

[MMMisterDNA]

Very good lesson thanks.

[GodsFavoriteBassPlyr]

Nice stuff.. and Great sounding guitar!

[MichaelPatrick123]

man, you make that look SO easy for a BEGINNER!!!

[simplethunder]

Ah! This is exactly what I'm looking for. A beginner here aswell. Cool licks which are easy enough. I like also how you don't hold our hand all the way by going "2nd string, 1st fret... 2nd string 2nd fret" etc. Because I think doing some by ear is good practice :)

[bmoraga01]

Beginner? Yeah, right! Loved it to death. Thanks for sharing.

[MKZtheProphet]

cool ^^

thx 4 the video,

pd: u look so beautiful :)

[cirolaudissi]

I watched your video 1 week ago and kept this whole week practicing and I record a video today...=)) thank you...

[MrBobooski]

[pekas1009]

[superguitarras111]

[albertbox07]

[DieFatorLiveThin]

[rocknrolldaddio]

[pupuceparis]

[piopob]

I like how you zoom in on the left hand when you show the runs. I can never tell what fret someone is in.

[snapperjohn1000]

these 3 runs are great i would like to hear you cut loose on that cannon sometime four years ago i bought a 2nd hand br 160 for 425.00 with good case i did some upgradeing at the bridge and put a set of grover gold button tuneing machines on it i just had small fret job done it is now a great rosewood dread it could only have ben better if it had had a bear claw spruce sound board on it

[rom1w]

[Gwyhir]

Ah, caught another of your vids. Great stuff young lady. I'v been playing a long while but I always finds something new in your vids.

[bmxtahoe]

Beginner? Haha riiiiight.

[daemonwulfe]

Lol, you are not a beginner! Listen to the clarity of the notes as they're picked out. Girl, you at least have 2 or 3 years of experience on you.

[ozzy8555]

my god you are as fast as the speed of light

[sjw999sjw]

keep it up bonnie - nothing like bluegrass - - -

[TheCubaCats]

Greate tone you´ve got there!! Sounds like you´ve been playing 4ever...

[brokeass89]

Sometime's I come to this sight to watch cool stuff and relax and end up pissed off :(what would you do if that was your daughter and she had to read all that?

[Stingerfyle]

[imaumbn]

Great beginner licks. Nice video too.

[Nergaloroth]

Excellent !! 5 stars for you, Queen of Texas =)

[takamine1236]

Thanks so much, any more little gems?

takamine1236

[mogsy1000]

perfect, and not to much talkin..thankyou x

[gnardog1]

thank you!

[rebelgar]

this was a really helpful video. thank you. those kinds of runs make me want to keep learning guitar.

[The14thString]

Great runs! Flat all yer 3rds, 5ths, and 6ths, and occasionally a 7th, and you'll be in Bluegrass Heaven.

[TWcyclone]

One thing you should know.

That last example where you started from the F, would be part of a G7 chord. It's not wrong, but it is no longer a basic G run. I would recommend it only for its value in spicing it up.

Overall, a very good tutorial on how to perform the quintessential bluegrass ending.

[chillichomper]

Are you being taught G licks and D licks etc or do you actually learn a scale? If a scale the please post. thx

[paulhb]

Those licks are based off of a G major pentatonic scale using chromatic passing notes. That means that there is not a proper scale there. Those are licks... cool ones.

[joey3025]

i liked that.. i try a lot of plucking.. but this is really nice as well, happy playin gurl

[muckraker100]

More licks please!!

[adjohns1]

You play it at speed...you play it slowly and with close-ups...GREAT stuff for those of us so much less talented than you.

THANKS...keep 'em coming...we love it

[MultiJumpinjackflash]

hey that was great...I have been inccorporateing electric guitar licks with some blue grass feel to it...your going to be awesome...check out my vidioe,s what you think .........maybe you can help me with some of mine

[ludlowmanhattan]

you are sexy!

[0011023]

Beginner my ass! Never seen a beginner move between chords at ANY speed....

[The14thString]

My thoughts exactly. Of course maybe you are just a child prodigy that started late ; )

[cronaldoz]

i can't believe your a beginner your pretty good for a beginner how long have you been playing

[planezane]

Thanks!

[rifleman522]

I have been trying to figure out that first run for a while now. I watched your video and learned it in about 2 minutes!!! Wow.....great lesson!

[kairus009]

thank you.... that was fun..... hehe

[flogesopp16]

You just started? wtf... u leard fast,gal!!

[depoyd]

Good picking - hope we get a chance to jam sometime - you can see some of your "stuff" at depoyd right here on youtube... We pick! Therefore we grin :)

[flatpikinguitar]
