This one is simply fun to play! I love playing mandolin in the key of C, and the harmonics & slippery licks keep me coming back!

Thank you Archie to the warm welcome. I have been admiring all of you from a far and now I am near. I am going to change my nick name, 12 JW’s means I need to be a little more creative here.

To Ben, I have been working on line 27 and 28 and you did something special there, I have it up to 100 bpm and it is a bit tricky but thank you for stretching us here. Good teachers do that.

Thanks! I have to say, I had to practice that quite a bit before I could get it!
