Beaumont Rag Mandolin Lesson!

Lesson link: banjobenclark.... - This is a great version of this parking lot favorite in the key of "C." I especially like the B part, where we learn some really cool crosspicking licks that can be used in other songs as well! Be sure to check out the 20+ minute video that teaches this version on the website, and don't forget to download the tab and rhythm mp3!

I've wanted to learn this tune for so long now. I feel as if this came at exactly the right time for me to actually be able to learn to play it. Thanks Ben. Great pickin'! :)

Nice little tune. I found some sheet music at mandolin cafe, but its not quite the same as what you're playing. Unfortunately, I don't read tab. I don't suppose you have what you're playing in sheet music or know where I can get it. Thanks for share the lesson though. I may be able to pick it up watching you.

Ben, your channel is by far my most favorite for picking up some banjo licks, or guitar transitions. After watching so many of your videos, I'm half tempted to pick up the mandolin. Do you play any dobro? I think that's going to be my next bluegrass instrument of interest. Keep the vids coming! Awesome, awesome job as always!

Howdy! I do play some dobro (I have one lesson on the site for "Just a Closer Walk with Thee") but I honestly don't have the time (or skill!) to dedicate toward making videos...YET!

+Banjo Ben Clark, I'll have to check it out. Thanks! Happy pickin'!

Sitting in Beaumont now. Time to learn the song, I guess.

Great lessons!!!

Are you going to do a guitar version of this song?

[@BanjoBen]

Yep! I'm going to have up both the banjo and guitar lessons over the next couple weeks on the site. Thanks!
