@the-old-coach , great to hear from you my friend! Hope all is going well for you (and yours) out there on the Left Coast (LOL). I think it was the 2nd class that Mike taught – the summer you did a lot of traveling – when he introduced the approach of C(B) A G E D. I believe he laid it out that way because the word CAGED was easy to remember, but in actuality it’s BAGED that’s the order of strings. The number of frets to “SKIP” between strings (1 1 2 1 2) was a way to help complete the concept.
