About this lesson Tabs & MP3s Need Help?

This is a perfect blend of Scruggs-style and melodics, tied up neatly in a tune we all know and love! Like most fiddle tunes, this one has two A parts and two B parts, so there's lots of creative freedom in building your own breaks from the parts I offer. Enjoy this one, and don't forget the gravy!
