The new June MandolinSessions bi-monthly webzine is out, and our Jazz Mandology submission is a review of the Closed Finger strategy we affectionately know as FFcP. Many have already put months, if not years into developing fretboard skills through this approach, but we didn't want to leave anyone behind. This article is a good introduction, if not retrospective.

MandolinSessions recently undertook an entire web facelift, and the new design is great. Unfortunately, the old links we provided to our JM archives were made obsolete, but we have now been able to remedy this. Let us know if you come across any dead links. We considerate one of our best resources on the JazzMando site.

Read Jazz Mandology "Closed Fingerings: A review on the benefits of closed finger patterns (FFcP) "

Also, if you wouldn't mind, job security is a good thing; submit your comments (positive, hopefully) in the Feedback section on the bottom of the above article. (Love those 5-star ratings, too!)
