In this lesson

May you have the luck of the Irish as you tackle this fun fiddle tune on guitar! There are some finger-twisters in it, but they are worth the challenge. By the way, this version matches note for note the banjo and mandolin solos, so grab a friend and have some fun!

    Got about 80% of this one down but the third measure keeps tripping me. Anybody else find that part awkward at speed?

    Count it out loud. Everyone says it and everyone's right.

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