G runs

- This is nothing but some stuff I do to stay alive in a solo. The G string is a tough key to actively lick on. I find it's a resting place most of the time, or a place where a longer lick tends to end. That said, I like playing in the lower register, particularly on slow songs or moedrately paced songs that are sung.
Thanks for sharing, KT! Loved the playing, the tone and the attitude. Keep up the great work.

Hey there. Thanks for the compliment.
It's a custom Weber Fern. It never ceases to amaze me.
This gave me a lot of ideas, Kevin. I'm trying to master G first. Thanks man!

I use a Dawg II pick. It's the Dawg pick, but a more recent version of it. The difference is that one of the ends is more pointed than the other two, and it's not so much like the Goldne Gate anymore. I like that it is stiff and helps me bring out a full, rich, round tone.
I know how you feel about being stuck in a rut brother man. That's how I feel all the time with my playing.
That is great & just what I need. The only problem is I am a beginner moving into intermediate and will take ma 100 times watching that to get down. ;)
Thanks, buddy. It's a custom Weber fern. It has a red spruce top, one-piece back, and a pearl nut. I'm very happy with it. It's one of the best I've ever played, right along with a Kimble I played once.
ah, sort of. were i in charge of labeling the video, i would amend it to say, "circle of fifths" as opposed to the suggested idea of straight runs in the key of G. great job either way and thanks for the enlightenment-
I'm more of a banjo person myself but mandolins are awesome

Thanks for the message. You can apply the bar chord concept to the mandolin as well. The open G chord is akin to the four-fingered, closed position A-chord. You can look up the closed position chords if you don't know them already.
It's tough to say exactly what to do, but I've found it relatively easy to accommodate a guitar player's capo by simply sliding my chord formations to the same key.
Thanks for watching. I don't have any TABS for any of my videos, so sorry about that. There's no ssubstitute for just sitting down with some music, listening to it, and picking it apart note for note. It will be brutal the first few times, but you will get really good at it quickly. I'm sure you already know this from playing guitar.
Your style has a nice smooth flow to it.
Cool, bud. That's what I'm aiming for. I wanted help when I first started, and still do!
very nice! I've been wanting a good F-5 mandolin. I could sell off a 66 Telecaster to afford me one, but I like that too much as well. I'm heading to the flea market today, maybe something close will come along.
I'm not sure about that one. I guess they should be called "runs that lead to G." I'm not well versed in musical theory, so I apologize for any errors.
Sweet licks
I enjoyed the playing - but as a beginner I found it hard to follow - any chance of finding the tab for this? As a guitar player for many years I can manage the finguring, though the small scale is taking some adjusting to.
I really like the sound of your mandolin, what make is it and which strings do you use?
I have a somewhat dumb question, but can you actually play the highest frets on the instruments? They look very narrow, and I therefore imagine they would be difficult to play.
What's the name of that first lick/song you played ??
difficult... but not impossible... hahahaa
i'm curious why you call this video "G runs" but spend most if it doing D & C runs....!?
