There are two tabs in this lesson. We'll start with a brief overview of the basic melody, then expand it to an advanced version of this classic fiddle tune in "G." This one is a lot of fun to play!

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

    Recording yourself is humbling but it's the fastest fix I've found.

    Welcome aboard — you picked a good one to start on.

    Great question. That's a slide going into the B part — I play it as a slide but a hammer-on works fine if that's cleaner for you. Do what sounds right.

    There's a slower jam track under the resources tab on this lesson, worth grabbing.
