You Can Play Bluegrass Mandolin, Vol. 1

Butch Baldassari will have you playing your mandolin in minutes with his easy, hands-on, beginner's lessons. He covers all you need to know to get the bell-like high notes and percussive back-beat that are the signature sound of this popular instrument.

Butch shows you how to hold your instrument and tune it up, discusses all you need to know about picks, strings and more, using his own 1925 unsigned F5 Lloyd Loar as a teaching tool.
