Fiddle
Tunes for Banjo Made Easy
is a collection of
must-know, easy-to-learn
bluegrass instrumental
standards. Ross records
each song at three speeds
and also includes a
rhythm backup track. The
slow speed is ideal for
hearing the notes clearly
and being able to play
along in rhythm; the
medium speed is a perfect
goal for the beginning
and intermediate student
while the faster speed
demonstrates what the
song can sound like with
a hard, driving push. The
tablature is large for
ease of reading and
includes accent marks for
melody notes where
needed. Ross also
provides tips and
suggestions for each song
to save you valuable
practice time. These are
tips on the more
challenging spots that
Ross has learned
firsthand from teaching
these privately for many
years. In addition, there
is a whole page of
instruction on learning
the chords to the song,
how to play the song
using only the chords,
chord charts written out
for each song and tips
for memorizing and
playing without tab.
Fiddle Tunes for Banjo
Made Easy is not just
another tab book; it
covers all the bases and
gives you a realistic
balanced approach for
learning the songs the
EASY way. Includes access
to online audio.
