In the Sweet By-and-By

mandolin advanced

In this lesson

This is an extremely slick version of this classic gospel tune in the key of C. If I were to play a solo for this song on someone's record, this is what I'd play. It's not too fast, but advanced because of all the licks. Enjoy!

    Ben, this one finally made the timing click for me. Been fighting it for a month. Thank you.

    I had that exact problem. Turned out my thumb was anchoring in the wrong spot.

    Don't force the pinky stretch. Move your thumb down behind the neck first and the stretch mostly takes care of itself.
