Wow, great info... I have been doing these chords in different ways, though your chord/double stop form is really easy. I have not thought about moving the 1-7, a half step one direction or another for a 4-7 or a 5-7. Thanks for posting!
mandomonica You're welcome. It's a great old trick, you hear a lot of blues guitarist use it. If you can find some early string band blues, you can hear the mando players using it.
+robert bullard Sorry you feel that way. I think I was being a bit aggressive. If you listen to the old string band blues mandolin players, they really pound on those strings! It's a sweet old mando, very responsive. It does sound better with a lighter touch.
+Ronnie Eversole Hey Ronnie I just posted a mandolin video tutorial on 2 string / 2 finger shapes and I use Keep on the Sunny Side as a demo. Not very bluegrass yet, but I'll get there.
Big Fat Thumbs up. Simple and sounds fantastic. Beautiful mandolin, wow.
thanks Guy. it’s a 1922 Gibson F-2
Please keep the blues lessons coming. I love these.

I believe if i am correct that is one like Ira Louvin played.
What kind of mandolin are you playing ???? it looks like a gibson f 4
It is a F-2. I think Ira louvin played an F 4. Same basic mandolin with fancier inlay and headstock.
holy string rattle batman... great lesson though
robert bullard it's just gonna happen with a mandolin
