Bluegrass legend Jesse McReynolds invented crosspicking on the Mandolin in the 1960s, and this DVD gives you the chance to learn this complex and powerful technique from the master himself.
Jesse starts at the beginning, teaching the basics of mandolin crosspicking which emulates the characteristic sounds of banjo rolls. He provides a host of exercises, melodic variations, endings, backward rolls and arrangements to some of his best known songs. Jesse also reveals the secrets of his splitter strings, another McReynolds innovation that creates a rich texture and enables you to get additional harmonies on your instrument.
