Hi Folks: I have been on the site for a long time, Premium member from the start. worth every Penney! For the beginners, do work with Johnnies beginning lessons, Intermediates,,, Me! go back and see what you can do with those lessons. I hope you are real surprised at what you are doing and how good you are now. The 3rds lesson will tell you a lot about your playing. Look at the scales and mark your 4ths, 5ths etc. Intervals is all they are. Music is intervals when broken down. When you play intervals, they are melodic. Have fun with them, make long tones, double tung, slur, loud and soft. So, hit it and have fun. Tim
