Excellent. I really like the way you break down every detail of the tune. The way you talk though each measure and show which finger postions to use is most helpful. A tune suggestion would be Monroe's " Old Mountaineer". Thank you!🎶

[@gregfury]

Wow!!!! Thank You! I have been listening to, and loving this solo for a long time. I could never figure it out. It's such a unique take on the melody.

I really appreciate this Tristan! I'm wanting to get into bluegrass mandolin and I think Ronnie is absolutely someone you should be listening to and I appreciate this breakdown! Honestly, this is valuable just for the Monroe style kind of those iconic licks and you really give a good sense of the feel of it which is so important. Ronnie had great drive!

[@Gently469]

Well done Tristan! Thanks for helping us peons along.

That funky chord from the high dbl stop E to the A is just the flat 7th chord, a D 🎉❤ 🤓 Love this video!

[@PeaceLoveThought]

Those triplets are pretty cool. You should do a mini-lesson on using them in context. Really enjoyed the in-depth lesson.,

Are you hitting all the strings when you tremolo or just the one that correlates with the note? I’m genuinely curious and would love some tips for starting out on mandolin. Thank you. God bless you❤️✝️🙏

[@michaeladams2644]

What is that style called where you join up tremeloed chords with single note lines? My favourite player Caleb klauder does it all the time ? Thanks love your vids❤

[@huliniswhoiam]

I mean I think that would be elements of Bill Monroe's style. Ronnie is a big user of that style in his playing I would say that that's mostly the style he plays in and he feels comfortable playing it. And from what I've heard of Caleb, I think he does a bit of it as well!
