Hello all,
I have been playing guitar for about 3 years now and I’m new to learning/playing blue grass. I was wondering if there is a warm up routine you recommend to increase crosspicking and rhythm?
Thank you
I do triads
Learn basic chord theory and become familiar with the different inversions for each chord. Become familiar with the basic crosspicking patterns. Get tab for a relative easy tune, "Banks of the Ohio" for instance, and start learning to play the tune. Also experiment substituting different crosspicking patterns for parts of the tunes. Unfortunately, I have not found any instructional that that provides detailed information. Subjects like a melody transitioning from standard noting pattern to crosspicking or transitioning from crosspicking. It would be great to know what goes through a guitarists mind when they decide to crosspick a musical phrase.
