Amazing! Thanks so much!!!
THANK YOU !
I’m interested to know about his bridge pick up set up, three wires!, tell me more
thank you so much for the lesson!
your welcome!
Greeeaaat!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Thank You! @castrosnoel Keep on Fiddlin! Mike
Nice ... so many of the RUclips bluegrass instructors title their videos "Beginner" but lose me after like 30 seconds
@stephensmusicroom Thanks for watching!
Loved it. Gave me some nice transitions and subtle licks to learn and good rhythm.
This is so much fun to play along to! Thanks!
@bridgeshomemusic Thank you! KEEP ON HAVIN FUN!
You play beautifully!! However, I sound like John Henry got stuck on the track and got hit by a slow moving train. 😖
Out of probably 100 songs that I play just one I've never played so thank you your a great teacher
Love this you a great teacher😊😊
Thanks John!
“The song sounds amazing! Are there any sheet music available for it?”😃
There are a lot of sheet music versions for this song that should be easy to find, The Fiddlers Fake Book has one. But learning by LISTENING and WATCHING are VALUABLE skills that seem impossible at first but can be learned. Start with LOOPTUBE,learn how to use it, take the first few notes, loop them and LISTEN until you can sing them, find them on the fiddle, play them very slowly (10 or 20 times) until you have them right,then do the same with the next few notes.Then play them together 10or 20 times. slowly building your LISTENING and WATCHING skills as you learn the song. If you KEEP TRYING you can do it but you have to want it very badly!
Wait that’s so easy and made so much sense
Thank you for this video sir. I used it to learn this song and it got me out of a progress slump! You sing it really well too!
When I began playing the violin I wanted to jump right in to playing notes on the fingerboard. I soon got frustrated with the poor quality sounds that emanated far too often. Now I’m going back to bow fundamentals. Thanks for the video
So it it wrong to play it without the capo? Like will it match the banjo part, or would the chords be different? In videos with glam Campbell he isn’t using a capo, but in the movie he does. so I’m just wondering
Thanks
Do you know the old fiddle tune called Roll Down the line
I CANT PLAY IT THAT FAST
Simply just start slow and slowly speed it up .Check ou strummachine (it speeds up after every repetition). Mike
You can also use the gear icon in RUclips and choose a slower playback speed.
Thanks from Spain!
You're most welcome!
that's very useful for me... thank you Sir...
Still helping people 6 years after the video released! I’m a new player who’s never seen sheet music for string instruments, but this cleared things up. Thanks from Texas and God bless!
what should i tune my fiddle to? can't get the sound right, great lesson!!
I'm just in standard fiddle tuning of G, D, A, E. G is the lowest pitch, and E the highest.
great information here. learn this technique and you don't need tab! thanks for posting!
Lovely!
Love that tune! Those minor notes give it such a cool groove!
Nice
brilliant. love it
Perrrfect! I just shared this with a guitar playing friend whos trying to flatpick. You havd the right feel and attitude. Thank you! (And really, Id like him to work on backing you up, not on flatpicking crazily.)
Jimmy would be proud.🦇
Very nice. Always thought the fiddle would be too difficult to learn to play well, but this gives me hope. Thanks
I couldn't hear you very well.....but nice playing!
Ha ha, not being loud enough isn't a frequent comment about the banjo.😂
I’m from Idaho Falls 😊
Im confused on where the 8th notes are on the tab.
The first 4 notes at the left are eighth notes. Notice that they have a bar connecting between them. (They can also be shown with a "flag" on the tail but in groups they have a bar) Quarter notes have a straight tail.
If you are looking in my printed book, page 9 shows an example of quarter notes. The first measure on top has 4 quarter notes, counted 1, 2, 3, 4. Two eighth notes fit the time duration of one quarter note. They are counted as 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &.
@@BluegrassWithFriends Thank you!!
Awesome so good ,would love to have the sheet music to this song please .😊
The scale is the same as D major, with two sharps, but it's wrong to say "the key is D" because the key is actually E Dorian.
nice :)
💢🧿🙏
💢🧿Nice western music, I liked it.
Thanks Mike! Love this song and the truth in it. If you know the King pass on the good news. Jesus saves. Slowly coming along on this most beautiful instrument.
Well done!❤
You are making it easier for me to learn thank you!
I'm so glad you find these videos helpful.
Great lesson! Great channel!
Thanks so much!
OMG, you are so good at describing how to take a 'hokum" scale and bowing practice and fit it in to a song. Thank you for the recipe, I'll practice until I can fit that "sauce" into a song. Thank you so much!
Love the "sauce". It adds the right spiciness. 😁
The Long Neck Banjo. It's a Minor Third lower than the Regular 5 string Banjo & it's great for Transposing which is what Pete Seeger used it for.
Demo très sympa et réussie. Je recherche le playback .pourriez vous me dire où trouver🙂 Merci
Here is a Nice Version Michael Cleveland , ENJOY!

Been lurking on these tutorials for a while, learning to play Christmas present violin . This is my favorite so far of Mike's tunes. First learned Devil's dream. Looking for some more in the style of Salt Creek! Having so much fun learning with Mike's help
Thank you and I'll get some more done for you. Do check out my Fiddle playlist on this channel. Keep on Fiddlin!
Great Music Mike , Thank you . Just wondered if the books have tabs in ? A friend is thinking of learning to play bass .
Yes, the books do have tabs. I think it's a great way to learn to play because it helps you picture the fingerboard.
Show us the strokes and say directions can't tell which way bows going tanks Country
Ok Run Pony Run Pony D DUD DU (Down DownUpDown DownUp) so its that all the way through. Thanks for watching and commenting! Mike
As a beginner it shut would be nice to have camera away facing so we can see srokes...countey
Maybe I'll make another version of this video and try a different camera angle. People seem to like the information.
THIS IS THE BEST! Doesn't patronize or condescend (or waste your time) - respects players intelligence. Put me down as a fan.
That might just be the best compliment I have ever received. Thanks for your comment, it made my day.
