Freight Train, Part 1: L-Shapes, Arpeggios, and Double Stops in Bb
In this lesson you’ll learn to play a double-stop solo to the folk classic “Freight Train” in the key of Bb. “Freight Train” has an unusual chord—a major chord on the third step of the scale (III), so in the key of Bb, that’s a D. Sharon starts by reviewing the L-shapes, arpeggios, and double stops in Bb, starting with a position with your index finger on a Bb at the eighth fret of the D string. She also shows you where to find the D double stops in the key of B.
