Hoppin’ octaves, throwin’ triplets, & dealin’ doublstops makes for a mighty fun advanced version of this classic tune!

This mandolin is technically for sale, but technically not because it’s my favorite I’ve had yet from Northfield. If you want it, we can argue about it but you ain’t gonna hurt my feelings to pass 🤷

This is the first fiddle tune I learned on guitar over 25 year ago, and one of the first when I began mandolin. I’m anxious to add these new tricks in. Thanks Ben!

Great lesson, the humor takes the edge off. Sorry I missed the Banjo Camp in the Sunshine State, didn’t realize it was going to be so close to home. DARN.

This was fun! Especially the B part. I’ve never won a lottery, but I did get measures 31-34 right the first time through. :nerd_face:

What a wonderful lesson… I think it is above my pay grade but it inspires me… to try… one day… :flushed::grinning:
