The Fretboard Journal just posted this wonderful video on their Facebook page. It features mandolin phenom Chris Thile playing the Bach E Major Prelude on his Dudenbostel mandolin. I found the video compelling not only for the beautiful music but also because of the way it highlights Thile’s amazing right hand pick techniques. The guy is incredible. Enjoy. More to come… DJB
