Old Time Grindhouse — Fiddle Lesson #2
This month’s fiddle lesson is Tucker’s Barn. It is in standard tuning on the fiddle. I’ve included two video clips. The first is at normal speed with no instruction. The second video has it slowed down followed by the bow directions called out. Enjoy. The original can be found on the Doc Watson Family Tradition album. This is one of my favorite Gaither tunes, so enjoy.
