Yet consistently I meet people who can do it who dismiss me with this same "Oh, it's not that hard" or "Just play what comes naturally" or (best of all) "try harder!"Ĭlearly for some this is not hard. It is one of the hardest things I have ever tried to do. Now my attitude is just do something simplethanks for the video Chris but I want to note something here: you're entirely mistaken when you say picking up a tune by ear "is not near as hard as you make it out to be." YES IT IS! For me, this is tremendously difficult. There is no need to get any ones version note for note what you want is the basic melody and after you do a few it becomes easy to pick out the basic tune. Learning to pick up a tune by ear is not near as hard as you make it out to be.
It serves the purpose of letting me play along with my mando without a capo but I've also had a couple of "light bulb" moments with respect to the relationship between various keys and the lay out of the fretboard, and it's been helpful to pick out the solos by ear as I tend to remember them better that way than if I have the music in front of me. In a sort of messed up compromise I've been making myself transpose guitar tunes I pick with a buddy (usually pretty easy classic rock, country, and pop stuff, and many of them capo'd to different keys) to mando and occasionally banjo. My wife and I were discussing the very crux of the debate above just yesterday.I wanna PLAY, but I've also reached a point where I need more theory knowledge and knowledge of my fretboard to really be able to do that, especially with others, and that boils down to just basically doing the work. You may also try doing a google search for the songs you've listed and "mandolin tab." Alltabs has quite a few, and you may also find some transcription books that would help you out (not by last night, of course).

Unfortunately the software isn't perfect, and so you may find it gives you the correct notes but in random places around the fretboard.SO, you may have to do a little extra work to get it under your fingers, but if you can get the bulk of it done for you it's still quicker than trying to pick it out by ear. I remember Bela Fleck talking about transposing classical pieces to the banjo for his Perpetual Motion album (phenomenal, btw) and he used a similar approach.

I don't have these worked out already (sorry).an alternative to the laborious approach may be to try to use software (Tabledit, Sibelius, etc) and let them do the busy work for you.many will transpose the notation or tab for you from either banjo or guitar (which may be more easily available) to mandolin, and many basic versions are free downloads.
but since I'm working on a ton of stuff already and this jam meets every Tuesday I was hoping for maybe a little shortcut. I may have to do it the hard way and there may not be anybody with these breaks already worked out in mandolin tab who wants to share them and yes (again) I can do it the hard way. I'd like to see if I can't solicit a few more of those kind of posts rather than more "do it the hard way" stuff. note Paul Glasse's post above - that's a workable, helpful idea. * I also realize that I can do a banjo tab to mandolin tab translation/transposition and that doing such would be good tooīut that's not what I'm asking for! I'm not asking what would be best for my mandolin development - I'm asking for some QUICK help to learn these three banjo tunes ASAP.
* I'm aware that you can always do more than you think you can so don't limit yourself with can'ts
* I know that I can laboriously sit down and pick out the tune myself - and that such would be good for my development (and perhaps take a millenia - okay, just kidding on that. I don't want to offend and I do appreciate all the help but maybe I can refocus what I'm asking for here.
