Hi, long time (32yrs) guitar player. I also play a lot of mandolin and bozouki in Irish folk styles. Guitar folk and blues to rock and reggae. Wanted to progress and unlearn some bad habits, learn some speed technique and generally just improve technique and approaches. I have a Youtube channel where I post jam stuff or more serious stuff. Not afraid of constructive critique. Its amazing after 30 years of playing (25 professionally) how much there ALWAYS is to learn, but maybe thats the whole point.

Cheers,  
Jason

Welcome to the forum Jason! Cool to hear you play mando & bouzouki in addition to guitar. Let us know if there’s anything we can help with / point you to once you have a chance to look around.

Thx, still working through some of the exercises and vids. Big fan of the Eric Johnson 5s pattern stuff already.
