love this !
These videos are great. I grew up playing guitar mainly in the hard rock/metal genres however I come from a long line of bluegrass players. I have always liked bluegrass music and now that I am in my mid 40’s I have decided to start to learn my families Appalachian heritage and play some bluegrass these videos have been so helpful. Thank you
An obvious question – when the tune moves from the one to the four, five or other chords, do we switch to the corresponding 4 and 5 chord pentatonics or stay with the g scale throughout?
Is there anyone else that can play pretty decent bluegrass guitar that dont have a clue what hes talking about? Im like a ball in tall weeds…lost????
so much talking so little music
There is nothing dangerous about improving licks…notes work , phrases work or they dont …thats how you learn…
In short, what is the theory behind bluegrass licks. Emphasize 1 3 5 b7 of chords (on which beat?) and use all others as passing notes?
you're not only a great guitar player, but a computer programmer as well 😉
I have been playing guitar for a long time. I'm relatively new to bluegrass as far as playing it. It definitely helped. Thanks.
how about a flat 7? Is that off limits?
Marcel, your lesson’s are the best on u-tube period. However for most beginners which I’m not, I feel viewers find them very comprehensive but sometimes too complicated because you enjoy tab’s and notes. Just wondering if maybe you gear yourself to beginner and intermediate players and think this is what they want, instead of what they really need. I personally like tabs but find them too time consuming. I’m a seasoned player and practice daily with great passion to learn, but having watched your numerous videos and read comments, I feel it would be great to facilitate some of those requests the viewers have. If you’ve determined this is your preferred method teaching that’s fine.
What program do you use for writing tabs?
The NASCAR shirt is essential for bluegrass
Confused again. Isn’t the root note E (open E) which would then make this an E pentatonic scale? This is the problem with learning online. Everyone has a different answer ????

I've revisited this video several time over the past year. I don't have any idea how to generate that tab like you are doing. I know you say make your own, but it would be helpful if you made 10 – 15 of them and I could randomly pick one of those, so I could work on picking strings vs being frustrated about using some software I don't even have. But its a helpful lesson and I will continue to return. Thanks Marcel.
Every time I go looking for bluegrass lessons I always end up back here!???? This channel is great!
you should know the lesson and show it. faster. there is wayyyyyy to much talking.
thanks, great tips for a bluegrass newbie like me
What’s your thoughts on using a 12 strings for bluegrass?
You started out doing straight 8th notes but then you when to a dotted note rhythm even though you are writing even 8th notes. Why? Thanks!
I’m new to the bluegrass world…You are referring to the m3 as the ‘blue note’..? I have always known the blue note to be the b5 … is this a bluegrass thing? @lessonswithmarcel 5:46
This is one the best beginner bluegrass lessons out there. Your truth bombs are absolutely spot on. ✌????
Too much talk for me
What software are you using for transcription?
Definitely one of the best instructional videos I've ever seen on youtube. Thanks for this!
You’re are absolutely the best out there!!! Thanks for everything you do!
A really creative and fun way of presenting a lesson. ????
Is there a good beginner bluegrass guitar instructor that does lessons online you can recommend?
Your playing is phenomenal and your video lessons are very comprehensive. I love bluegrass music but I don't read music or tabs and this stuff is too complicated for me. I'm just a simple 68 year old guitar player. Thanks for sharing your talent!
What is the music notation/tab software being used. Any recommendations for a guitar teacher? Thanks
Marcel, can you tell us what software you’re using to create these scores/tabs? I write, but your software looks to have a MUCH more intuitive interface than my current software.
