Here are Bag O’ Licks in E: https://banjobenclark.com/lessons/bag-o-licks-key-of-e-guitar

I’ll do the other ones, have them on the list!
Em, A, F would all make great Bag 'o Licks!
In the meantime, you might find some inspiration for those chords in the lessons for songs that include them (for example, Salt Creek has you play over an F chord, songs in C often use an F chord, etc. What Child Is This is in E minor, which is a lot more common to play over than E major for the banjo). For Em and A, closed/up the neck shapes come in handy a lot!

Finding this lesson reminds me of discovering antique treasures in Grandma’s attic when I was a kid! I’ve been looking for examples of mashgrass style heavy driving back up for weeks now and this lesson is GOLD! Ben’s supplemental youtube post ( https://www.youtube.com/embed/8P1AAA-cSc4?autoplay=1&feature=oembed&wmode=opaque ) added the proverbial cherry on top for rolling this through I,IV,V. Would love to see more like this in the future… maybe in the style of Terry Baucom or Ron Stewart. Thanks, Ben…Love this lesson!
