One String Wonder- A Major journey

Posted by BrianQ. on April 21, 2021 at 5:00am

When I was searching for clues to play a diddley bow, I came across this (and other 1 string material) BrianQ posted. These scales are invaluable for slide guitar no matter how many strings. They truly help me become a better player. Much obliged!
