the notes on the b string


This lesson should be fairly self-explanatory if you've been through Lesson Five. We will now be discussing the first three notes on the B string, or second string. Here they are:

B String




The tricky part to this is combining notes from both strings to play songs. This will take patience and practice. Once you get the hang of reading on the first two strings it becomes easier to add new strings to the mix. Below is a song comprised of notes from both strings. Before you attempt this you should be comfortable with the notes on the B string that I introduced above, and you should be able to play everything from Lesson Five forwards and backwards in your sleep. Don't forget to use your metronome! When you can play it perfectly, learn it backwards.
