Based on volumes I and II the author Sebastian Schroeder explains the combination of both styles, varying plicking patterns according to certain rules and offers different exercises to train this "mixed lead style". As a reward, almost all melodies can be played with only two fingers!Picking in 3/4-time and 6/8-time is also discussed and new tunings are also introduced. In addition to the practice piece Boil Them Cabbage Down, tablatures for the following tunes are included: I's the B'y, Oh! Susanna, Old Joe Clark, Buffalo Girls, Wayfaring Stranger, The Tenpenny Bit, Cumberland Gap, Midnight on the Water, Wild Bill Jones, Lost Gander and Omie Wise.About the authorSebastian Schroeder is a visual artist, author and musician.
