This is knockout stuff. No one else teaches the essential licks you want and need to know so clearly and with such style and verve. Heartfelt thanks, Chris, for improving my playing.

I’ve been wanting to learn how to “let loose” on the fiddle but felt stuck for some time now. The hardest part is that I don’t know what I need to learn. I’m so happy to have found this channel because it has given me direction. These videos are golden! I’m so excited to go try these licks 😊

@@TheFiddleChannel It's a good thing, being shut in when you have a house full of string instruments. I'm beginning to try to consolidate some concepts in my head and on to my fingers if that makes sense. I am equally at home w/ a banjo or guitar, but rarely saw crossover the concepts until now and more focus on blues pentatonic stuff. Hey can I ask if you have score you put on to paper for your Amazing Grace? Or some tips or pages to focus more on in your Expor Jazz book. I admire guys like you. I can play, but I often don't know what I'm doing. I think if I had the score, I could dis-agregate melody from riffs and then try to identify your thinking in each. Anyway. Thanks, Chris. Terry

@@tmilesstringwizards2445 Hi Terrance. All the solo here was improvised, so there's no score. The best way to learn something from it is just to pick out a few licks and learn them, and try and understand how they relate to the chords or the melody. Then you can use them anywhere and everywhere. From the fiddle handbook, you need to really get to grips with the blues scales, finger patterns and licks, then solos like I did here will just come pouring out!
