Mandolin Video Lesson: Salt Creek

Salt Creek - Tune & Improv Ideas

This is a downloadable video mandolin lesson which will teach you how to play the ubiquitous Salt Creek. (I don't think I've ever been to a bluegrass jam session where it was NOT played.)

You'll learn the basic tune and I'll introduce you to some improvisation ideas, including the blues scale, for dressing up the tune. Lastly, I'll show you a cool ending you can use with this or thousands of other tunes in A.

Download includes the video lesson, a 3 page PDF file with the tab and notation, and 2 MP3 practice tracks.
