Mandolin tablatures for Devil's Dream
Bill Keith
Recomended level: Intermediate
Devil's Dream is a traditional folk tune that was popularized by banjoist Bill Keith. It is a fast-paced melody that often features a two-part structure.
The Beginner level features a simplified single-line approach that's great for starting out. With the green difficulty slider set to the easy you'll learn the core notes, and when it's set to hard you'll incorporate the ever important Bum-Ditty rhythm pattern.
The Intermediate version is a nice, gradual step up from the Beginner arrangement. This one includes some scalar movement along sixteenth notes. Practicing your A major scale and the workouts really pay off here.
The Advanced arrangement is a full fledged version of this fiddle tune. It includes pull-offs, requires some pinky usage on your fret hand, and features some tough cross-picking.
Remember, with any arrangement, you can use the green difficulty slider to fine tune the song to your skill level. Should you come across any tough measures or licks, you can edit the difficulty of just that measure inside the edit measure pop-up window. Getting familiar with Tunefox's tools will help you be efficient and effective when you practice.
