MB98354 - Mel Bay Deluxe Encyclopedia of Mandolin Chords Book - $11.95 

This encyclopedia is designed to provide mandolin players with a wide variety of chords in different voicings.

  • This book is intended as both a starting point of learning chord voicings and patterns, as well as a dictionary of common mandolin chords.
  • Each key section includes the first position scale for that key, as well as the chord formula and notes for each chord.
  • If you want to learn to be a bluegrass rhythm player it helps to have a guide or 'map' to take you through the initial learning stage.
  • This book provides a small but powerful set of starter chords used in this style of music.
  • Once these chords are learned, you'll be able to jam with other musicians in no time.
  • These are the same chords used by greats like Bill Monroe, Doyle Lawson, David Grisman and hundreds of other bluegrass players in this genre.
  • While there are only a few chords presented in the "map" section, they form the foundation of bluegrass mandolin and with them you can play literally thousands of songs in every key.
  • Chords are presented by key.
