Cherokee Shuffle
advanced banjo
This lesson is for members
Every once in a while, I like to put out a more advanced banjo tab/lesson that will get the heart pumpin' and the fingers flyin'. This version of a great fiddle tune will definitely do both...it takes you up the neck, gets you plenty of melodic workout, and is built for speed!

Question on the tab — is that a hammer-on or a slide going into the B part? Sounds like a slide to my ear but the tab reads hammer.

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

Same here at first. What fixed it for me was practicing that measure by itself for a week, no B part at all.

Glad it clicked! That timing is the whole point of this lesson, so if that landed you got what you came for.

Take the capo off and play it in open G a few times, then put it back. Helped me hear it.

Try it without the pick for a few passes. Sounds silly but it told me my right hand was doing too much.
