Banjo Intro Lick - Lick of the Week #13 by JDMC chords
Start Jamming...
[G] Hi folks, Robbie Boone at Janet Davis [N] Acoustic Music and we've got a new Lick of the Week
for you and here in just a second I'll be going through it with you and trying to show
you what to do where.
So bear with me, hang tight, we'll be right back.
Okay the lick I want to show you today is a real simple little lead in lick and I'll
show you how to do the little lick first and then I'll tell you a couple places where I would work.
But very simply it's a lot of just index and thumb on this [F] one.
And you're going to hit your fourth string [D] open and you're going to use your thumb again
and you're going to catch the fourth string on [E] the second fret.
Then you're going to use your index finger and you're going to hit the third [G] string open.
Then you're going to use, you're going to catch the second fret [E] on the third string
with your thumb.
[B] Then index finger, second string open.
Then use [D] your thumb to hit the third string, fret it at the first [C] fret.
Then your middle finger, [D] hit the first string open.
And that doesn't sound like much but [A] [G] you can hear it kind of ascending.
And that's [E] the sound you're looking for.
[A]
[Eb] And how you'll come out of that, you'll just catch what I call the foggy mountain breakdown position.
That will be rocking between the [D] second and the third fret on the second [G] string.
[D] [G] And I'm assuming that we all know what I'm calling the [Bb] foggy mountain breakdown position.
But anyway, that lick can be used anywhere [D] that you would start a break like
Or some people do that
[G] And by the way, never go
Just don't ever do that.
Don't ask me why.
It gets too personal.
But just don't ever do that.
When you do that, use your first two fingers.
[D]
It's clearer, it adds more power, and it's more authority.
When you go
It kind of sounds like you're clawing it.
And you don't really want to do that.
But you need to be finesseful every chance you get.
And that would be one way to do that.
But anyway, back to the main lick.
This will work anywhere that
[G] Or
In [N] a nutshell, that's a lick that you might like and I advise you to play it.
But that's what we do here.
Y'all take care.
Okay, there you go folks.
That's it in a nutshell.
Really good simple little lead-in lick or even a mid-frame lick that you can use in
any of those situations I explained to you.
But anyway, play around with that, see what happens, and we'll see you next time.
[D] [G]
