Please visit http://www.jimrichter.com for tab associated with this lesson. The tab is called "Over the IV."

I've had requests for quite some time to post some blues mandolin lessons on YouTube.

Though I do teach mandolin here in my community, I find teaching through web-vignette to be a tad difficult.

If you like what you see and get some use out of it, let me know. I'll be happy to post more as time allows.

  • It seems like its always someone's great uncle that gives them their mandolin. My great uncle gave me a Harmonia a few days ago..

  • @ittdoesntmatter An arpeggio is the notes of a chord played individually.

  • I wanna learn the Mandolin

  • I love it! Very helpful. I bet you're a fantastic teacher one-on-one. Very clear explaining and demonstrating.

    I'm a fiddle player making the transition to mandolin. This is good stuff to have in the fingers. Thanks for your time.

  • hey.. arpeggio is a broken chord... like picking each note of a chord at a time.... Chromatic is half step by half step up a scale or down a scale or fret by fret because each fret is a half step

  • Hey love your lessons man. This ones got me interested in the music theory stuff you get into.  Totally lost me though, is there a good place online to learn what an "arpeggio" is or what you mean by chromatic? Thanks again

  • I have a Gibson A but how do I know if it is a Jr.?

  • More Coley Jones and Vol Stevens and less SRV. Ahhhh. Thanks anyway though.

  • I would like to say, your speaking voice is very different to your singing voice, as shown in your Voodoo Child video.

    You're not that bad a singer, either.
