This lesson is intended for players who are seeking a greater understanding of how to getbeyond basic open chords, or first position, use the full fretboard. We will do so by understandingthe concept of a movable shape. The tunes selected will slowly introduce you to a varietyshapes commonly used by the old-time masters to unlock the neck. In addition to learningthese examples, I’ll talk about the logic that makes movable shapes work, empowering you tocreate your own uses for them.You will learn tunes that have become standards in the fingerstyle repertoire by Sam McGee,Big Bill Broonzy and Maybelle Carter. As well, I teach two arrangements I have put together ofan old-time fiddle tune and a Jelly Roll Morton piano blues.
