Ok, I’ll try to film tomorrow and upload asap, which hopefully will be inside the month
One song I'd request for a lesson is [song] on [instrument]
Whenever works, don’t feel like you have to rush it!
@theChristiancowgirl If you like my version and can process tabledit files, I can make a tab for you. Just skip the banjer part,
Wow, that’s good!
@theChristiancowgirl Nevermind about the tabledit, I found another way to do it. Should have it done by tonight.
Alright, here it is. Sorry about the weird formatting, I was took screen clips from tabledit. Let me know if you have questions.

Sorry @theChristiancowgirl… But you see now you have @D_HRRFan7303 's music sheet, and I don’t know if you checked out Gunnar’s videos, he is going great, I’m sure he will provide playable and accurate music for you! I was/am being kept busy as well lately.
Wow this is great! Thanks for all the hard work and the copies. You guys should compile your own sheet music book!
I managed to record a lesson for it tonight, it’s three separate videos I’ll try to upload tomorrow
Perfect whenever works for you, like I said, no rush!
So tell me how do you go about compiling “rewritten” music for songs? Any processes?
Do you mean how do I arrange songs for instruments? I usually pick out the melody first and then add ornamentation to my taste, but it’s different on each instrument. It helps a lot to start learning stuff from videos or audio that isn’t specifically instructional, and also to be good friends with your scales
Good to know… I will start to attempt applying those same ideas when I find a new favorite hymn.
Here you go… Ben’s instructions on song improvisation…

Carter style would be perfect for I’ll Fly Away. Great opportunities for walking the bass notes.
When I did nursing home ministry, that was always a favorite. FWIW, I did it in G on guitar.
I did it in C, cuz that’s how it fell off my fingers, but if you capo 5 you get G
Our bluegrass club is managed by someone with no musical experience. We do a song every month, 55 min of learning time and 5 min of jam/announcements. When we did I’ll Fly Away, The Guitars and Mandos learned it in D, and the rest learned it in G.
Hmm, bet that sounded strange
I guess you all headed off in different directions.
