Cherokee Shuffle

Here's a classic fiddle tune. I need a setup and string change, but hopefully you can see the fingering and get the gist. I hope to have a few more up in the near future.

Thanks, Bob!

Thanks for the input! I think you're right. It's usually played in A.

That Weber has a beautiful tone, really warm .

Great sound and feel, ktbriggs!

Great job, clean and good sounding mandolin too.

It's similar to the way I have done it, but I like several of your runs/licks better. Thanks! Some new approaches to try.

Hey Mr Briggs

Have learned ALOT from your tutorials. However thew easiest to learn, by far, was Cherokee Shuffle. Not because its easy, it wasn't, but the way you presented it. Hope you receive this because that format was fantastic for learning. Once at tempo, then once slow.

I liked the approach, up to tempo, slow then chords.  Good photography of the left hand. A very useful resource.

Kevin I was watching your video again and I saw the Bm chord and relized that you are playing this in the key of D -- have you tried moving it up to A? I think it sounds brighter there. Anyway this is a nice version you have come up with.
