About this lesson Tabs & MP3s Need Help?

Check out this straight-ahead melodic version of Red Haired Boy, a classic fiddle tune! I've also included another tab that is in single-string style, but plays the EXACT same notes as the melodic. This way you can print both out and see how they compare.

    Is there a jam track for this at a slower tempo? 90 is still a bit quick for me.

  2. Wes Pittman ·

    There's a slower jam track under the resources tab on this lesson, worth grabbing.

  3. Curtis Rhodes ·

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

    Memorization comes from playing it at a tempo you can think at. If you need the tab, you're playing it faster than you know it.
