Practicing Tips

This resource offers the unique opportunity to learn 'Hand Me Down My Walking Cane' through flatpicking guitar tablatures in Jam and Bluegrass styles. Ideal for intermediate players, the song represents a vocal, medium-tempo selection of folk and old-time music. Learning and mastering this song will undoubtedly propel your skills to new heights.

One of the key learning tools highlighted in this resource is the use of the Tunefox's unique feature, the Lick Switcher. By adding new lick vocabulary, you are able to interpret the song differently each time. This feature not only allows you to personalize the arrangement but also encourages you to learn new perspectives on the tune. Simply tap on any measure to explore its hidden licks.

Another excellent feature of this platform is the Arrange slider. This interactive tool enables you to adjust the complexity of the song with precision. Sliding it to the left will yield a simpler, core arrangement in the tablature by removing many of the "fill-in" notes. However, if you want the full ornate arrangement, you simply need to slide to the right, and all the extra notes will populate the song.

The tempo slider is another great tool for learning this song. Adjusting the tempo to create a comfortable playing speed can make practice sessions more effective. Slow down to dissect tricky licks or speed up to test your picking speed and agility.

Pairing with the backing tracks can also enrich your playing experience. By focusing on specific measures and repeating them, you get to enjoy practice sessions while perfecting your skills. Additionally, the 'Speed Up' function can help you gradually challenge yourself by incrementally increasing playback tempo, making your journey from novice to virtuoso all the more exciting.
