Not only a journey man professional musician, and winner of the 2006 Rocky Grass competition, Colby Maddox is a uniquely qualified teacher of Mandolin, Fiddle and Guitar. His concepts of Double Stops and how to teach them to players of all levels is an eye opening experience. </div> <bR> <div> Listening to the tinkling sound of a solid lead line on mandolin is one of the things which attracted all of us to these remarkable instruments. To be able to add subtle harmonic enrichment to these sounds simply makes playing the instrument to a brand new level. </div> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> -</div> <div> <U>Double Stops on Mandolin</U> - We've all heard them and are continually tantalized by the breezy, bell like harmonies. Many of us have tried little two string chords and often the experiments are fun and successful. But really playing double stop riffs or licks seem to exist only in the rarified atmosphere of very experienced players. Or does it? </div> <bR> <div> Colby Maddox has been playing mandolin professionally for over twenty years. Like many of the upper echelon players, he has not only played but continually studied the various potential alternatives which exist on our short fretboard. In mixing double stops with rolling vertical and horizontal scales, his playing in person, sparkles. </div> <div> To me, that is mandolin playing at its finest. And best of all, Colby can explain and teach how it's done. </div> <div> With that thought, I welcome you to exploring a remarkable Introduction to Double Stops on Mandolin©. The methods are very process intensive and the system is broken down into a series of very accessible (and enjoyable) lessons. And best of all, you can do this at home without adult supervision!</div> <div> Take your time and enjoy new direction in Mandolin playing,</div> <div> And Colby knows how to teach you to do it. </div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <I>Dion Morris</I><FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Arial" > - </FONT><FONT SIZE="2" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Arial" >Editor, Guides Publishing™</FONT></div> </tD> </tR> </TABLE></div> <bR> <div> To order a Digital copy of this book - </div> <bR> <bR> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
