Key of D
Virtual slow jam with the melody played on guitar the first and last time around. The rest of the video is for you to play over on whatever instrument you have laying around.
The tab includes the guitar arrangement I play in this video.

This is a must know chromatic lick from the 70’s.
Here’s a simple lick that runs up a G scale with a few embellishments.
This blues lick is reminiscent of what you might hear from an electric guitar. It’s closed position so you can play it in any key very easily.
This lick makes for a good exercise in playing double-stops up and down the neck in 6ths. It’s demonstrated in the key of G but can easily be transposed into other keys. The variations are limitless.
This is a V7-I change taken from the song Nola. An interesting mix of melodic and single string technique to get you from A7 to D.
Here is a lick that uses a flatted 3rd, 5th and 7th to give it a bluesy sound. In the key of G these blue notes are Bb, Db and F.
This is a melodic lick inspired by Bela Fleck. The tricky part is fretting the 5th string with your pinky.
Key of G
Cripple Creek
Key of A
Capo 2nd
Somewhere between Bluegrass and Old-Time is how I like to play fiddle tunes on guitar. Sure I may be playing a Santa Cruz Tony Rice model, in this video, but I relate more to Norman Blake and a laid back approach.
The intention of this video is to show you how to shape a basic melody into a lead line. More importantly it demonstrates that rhythm playing is equally important and doesn’t always have to be robotic strumming.
Another important element is to play with a bowing type pulse to give the music a lilt. After all fiddle tunes are traditionally played at dances.
