Higher Ground- Mandolin Lesson
intermediate mandolin
This lesson is for members
Playing mandolin in the key of B is a bit of a different animal, and it's so fun! This one has some twist and turns and I love how the melody shines through!

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.

Answered over in the tab thread too, but short version: play what's comfortable, the tab is a map not a law.

That's the one that made me finally understand backup. Stick with it.

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

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