Free Fiddling

From Larry Rutledge on 2/8/2012 4:20:59 PM

Hey all, havent been at this for a year yet,had  a couple of months with a live teacher but things got tight and had to stop.  If you need a tuner to tune your fiddle like I do, its going to be a slow go listening to a tune and finding it on this box.  One of the better teachers on this site says folks like me need to have the tune broken down in chunks( like fiddling Mike calls it) and walked thru the tune.  Sounds like a one one one lesson right. and I looked and looked at the so-called free lessons, and most would show a small clip, then tell ya how much the whole thing would cost.  But I found 28 FREE lessons sofar withhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLdxO7Jc85Q&feature=related great tunes, if a raw begginer start with shady grove.  Its Johns Fiddle Lessons, he has a camp too.  All free.  Hope this helps Larry
