Power Chords - Rock Mandolin Solo

[MisterWrightBlogs]

Well, I don't know if you've ever played Ukulele but, I was wondering if the Mandolin consists of the same chord placements as the Ukulele just with more strings? And if Mandolin is any harder to learn from Ukulele?

[ClintL63]

I play mandolin [only on me front porch] and this opens a lot of fun for me; wonderful idea! thanks

[quofreak2]

[TechnicolorStereo]

I'm definitely a fan of your red mandolin. It's gorgeous!!!!! And nice song!

[cluesn]

Danke für's Video. Sehr gelungen. ;)

[MrSethMusic]

Haha! Nice you are very good! I think you look like my dad when he plays music. He stares angrily at the neck. But he can't play that well! Great job!

[SaskStrum]

Love it! Watching your left hand reminds me of Brown Sugar by the Rolling Stones. I'd love to see you do that on a Mandolin. Great job, loved it!

[Mandolinplayer15]

Super Cool und deine Website ist auch klasse^^

[hippiejamsession]

haha it reminds me of rock n roll by led zeppelin

[asdfghjklzxc1000]

thats a good song

[GermanDulcimer]

ahh thanks, finally I know what I was thinking off all the time.

[PauseNoHomo]

@hippiejamsession thats because its a basic 12 bar blues play....which is exactly what rock and roll by led zeppelin is, along with red house and johnny b goode and countless other songs.

[dieliepen]

@hippiejamsession

It´s an actually typical Jazz accord "build". :)

[alittledeadbirdtold]

@hippiejamsession Led Zeppelin sucks listen to The Beatles. That's really talent.

[TheJaded1039]

@alittledeadbirdtold Zep troll... Go listen to your White Album.

[iPholus]

It's not so hard but... nice :D

[RyanStevenG]

My friend has that mandolin and its amazing! Hes got an amp for it to. nice job on the vid!

[Qazic12]

Damn that is good.

[webbfeet65]

mandolin sounds great

[guitarherocentral911]

CATCHY

[Samlovestotoro]

Is that a normall size mando? Great song :)

[MandoIsland]

This is a normal size american F5 style mandolin with a normal scale like a Gibson F5, it was built by french luthier Hervé Coufleau.

[MandoIsland]

Thanks! The first part is in B flat, then it moves up to D via C. Second part is in D, first changing between D (fingering: 4 2 3) and D7 (4 2 1), with A/A7 and G/G7 - hope that helps - its is not very complicated

[Mandolin1944]

Nice work! Pretty cool. The only rock I have ever tried to do on the mandolin are some Buddy Holly tunes and etc. This is fun to listen to -- it is kind of hard to see exactly what frets are used on these video -- on the second part of the song you were making what looks to be a full D-chord and then playing off it?

What is the progression on this piece?

What kind of a mandolin are you playing? You make a good sound from it.

[billkilpatrick]

wonderful michael ... eloquently played to the garage band in all of us.
