Re: CAGED

Thanks for the link Z. That was well worth a watch. It is amazing how much there is to learn about a couple of pieces of wood and some strings!
What a wonderful instrument we chose. There can't be  many other instruments out there with so many ways to play them. What with strumming, appregio's, finger picking and tapping. Add in the different tunings you can use and all the different sounds you can get with different woods and strings. It just goes on forever.

Re: CAGED

This seems like an incredibly complicated way to learn chords...and you never learn any theory, just finger placements. Just my .02.

What he's actually doing is playing around the circle of 5ths backward.

Re: CAGED

If you go around the circle of fifths backwards, do the bottles fill back up?
