there are 5 places on the neck that you can lay down your 1st finger, and play the entire song without moving your hand from there! ... that would include all 30 chord changes for the verse, chorus, and bridge! ... using bar chords and pieces of chords ... after you play this lesson, you will become an expert at this, and will be able to easily be able to construct and play any chord anywhere on the neck ... see full TRACK LISTING below ...

you will be learning some music theory, as well ... as you will better understand how chords are related, and linked together across the neck ... as well as improving your ear... helping you immediately recognize what chords Jerry or Bob are playing, and where on the neck ... once you learn the simple 5 connecting licks between chord positions, the exercise will also help you to become more adept and fluid when switching back and forth between lead picking and rhythm playing ...

you will be amazed at how much more control, and feel you will have with your left hand once you can play through the lesson ... don't give up ... don't let that dang A chord in Position 2 beat you! ...

the main focus of the entire video is the 6 minute video exercise ... unless you want to learn the connecting licks, you may not need to watch anything else in the entire video, at all ... i am truly putting the "cart before the horse" here ... starting right at the end product, then going back to explain how we got there ...

48:59 - you will also find an edited version of the main video which includes finger position reminders and lick numbers scrolling underneath...

Later you will find a video of Carlo playing along to the full lesson 55:02 ...
