Hi all,

I'm looking for tab or sheet music or other learning resources for the Sugarloaf Mountain Special fiddle tune by the Johnson Mountain Boys. Does anyone have any resources?
Thanks!

Thanks so much Richard!

What is the 2nd set of tabs in the pdf for? Are those mandolin or ?

Hi again,

I'm guessing that the first page of the PDF shows the bowings? Some sort of shuffle? Any advice here (except to drink lots of coffee prior to practicing)?

Thanks again, this is awesome! I didn't expect to get any hits on this.

the notation key signature was messed up, fixed

PDF 1 mandolin style tab

PDF 2 standard notion

PDF 3 finger notation as in chart

BTW no bowings are used in any of the PDFs
