Practicing Tips

If you're a beginner bluegrass mandolin player, this 'G Major Scale Workout' is perfect for you. This lesson provides two Octave Scale, Scale Pattern #1, 3rds Pattern Styles in an easy-to-understand tablature format. The main focus here is on practical exercises and technique workout which are essential to master any scale.

One of the significant features of this lesson is that it allows you to use Tunefox's unique 'Lick Switcher.' This tool introduces new licks into your existing repertoire and allows you to swap licks for individual measures, promoting a deep understanding of song variations. All you need to do is tap the measure to unearth the next lick! This personalised approach to learning is engaging and ensures a comprehensive grasp of the tune.

In addition to that, Tunefox also features an 'Arrange' slider, giving you control over the difficulty level of the song you're trying to learn. When swiped to the left, the slider eliminates some “fill-in” notes, presenting a simplified arrangement in the tablature. Conversely, moving it to the right adds these notes back to reveal the full song complexity.

Setting the lesson's pace is also a breeze with the 'Tempo Slider'- change the tempo at will. Playing along with a backing track while focusing on select measures can make the learning process much more enjoyable. The 'Speed Up' function is particularly useful for building up speed gradually. It subtly increases the song's speed each time you play, allowing you to progressively boost your competency at a comfortable pace.

A few general tips while learning this scale workout - always start slow, focus on rhythm, and gradually increase your pace. Practice daily, and remember, perfection comes with repetition.
