Practicing Tips

Plunge into the intricate depths of the vocal folk song, 'Little Sadie' with our tailor-made bluegrass banjo tablatures designed for intermediate players. This chilling murder ballad, rendered in a minor key lends itself perfectly to the Scruggs, Melodic, and Backup style of playing.

A notable feature of our Tunefox platform is the Lick Switcher that allows you to infuse new life into the song by varying the licks for individual measures. This will enable you to personalize the arrangement while unlocking new interpretations of the tune. Just tap on a measure to reveal the alternate licks at your disposal.

The Arrange slider is another tool that simplifies the customization of difficulty levels. Shift the slider to the left to obtain a simple, core arrangement by eliminating many 'fill-in' notes. Conversely, move it to the right to reincorporate all the additional notes and deliver a full-fledged performance.

Also, influence the tempo of the song with ease using the tempo slider. Whether you want to study the song in a slow, meticulous tempo or challenge yourself with a rapid-fire pace, the choice is yours.

Not just a solitary experience, our platform offers real-sounding backing tracks to accompany your bluegrass banjo playing. The 'Speed Up' function allows you to gradually ratchet up the tempo, preparing you for faster-paced bluegrass jams. Remember to start slow and let 'Speed Up' take care of the rest.

Finally, don't be afraid to experiment and spend time with each measure. Breakdown 'Little Sadie' into smaller elements - be it a new lick or a chunk of measures, and master them before moving on to the next.
