My husband bought me my first Mandolin and due to stupidity I never really picked it up for a long time. I come from a long line of musicians, starting from a great great grandfather who was a preacher who taught all his girls an instrument in church. My daddy learned to play guitar on a cigar box with rubber bands until My pawpaw saw how much he was really going to be interested in playing it. I am now picking my Mandolin up and will never put it down again, and thanks to seeing your videos I will definitely be learning from You. This is really important to me in so many ways. Thanks for your time and videos!!
I admit that I didn't pay attention to the tune because I was mesmerized by that beautiful mandolin. You didn't show the headstock but we all know what it is.
Hi Ines, Sunrise uses the same chords as this tune. G, C, D & Em. The verse is 2 measures of C followed by 2 measures of C then they repeat . On everybody waits thay go to Em for a measure followed by C for a measure then G for 2 measures, the they repeat the Em to C to G. When they are on the G chord the mandolin is playing a figure much like the solo that i show here. Fool around with your mandolin and see what you discover!
every unclean tone reminds me of my guitar player's experiences with mandolins. they're tiny but loud, and making chords sound clear takes the hands of a blacksmith or iron fingermails. feels like playing on an egg slicer at first.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. I have a couple of old Gibson mandolins from the 1920s. Check out Eldery instruments website. They have many good choices for beginning mandolin.
Thank you! You’ve shared life changing playing technique here!

Thank you sir. I bought a Mandolin last week so I starting to learn. I have this down pat and can use those double stops for other songs. Great work.
You’re welcome. Yes, those two finger positions will really come in handy. Try them off a C chord on the 2nd and 3rd strings.

Is that an old F4 Mandolin?
It’s an F-2. The F-4 has more inlay.
every unclean tone reminds me of my guitar player's experiences with mandolins.
they're tiny but loud, and making chords sound clear takes the hands of a blacksmith or iron fingermails. feels like playing on an egg slicer at first.
I guess I am pretty randomly asking but does anyone know a good place to watch new series online?
@Brayan Colin lately I have been using FlixZone. Just google for it :)
@Josiah Jon yup, been watching on Flixzone for years myself =)
@Josiah Jon thanks, signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :) I really appreciate it!
@Brayan Colin No problem :D
What size plectrum do you use? Dunlop .60mm?
I like the Dunlop delrin picks. I tend to go a little heavier, maybe 72 - 80.
Why is strum pattern for the knock knocking on heads door part?
? Not sure what you mean. But you can use the same strum pattern for the verse and chorus.
On the chorus I try to accent the melody a little more.
nice lesson. What mandolin you have. What mandolin is good for begginer.
