Lesson ID: A0172
In this bluegrass guitar lesson, you’ll learn how to play the traditional fiddle tune “Black Mountain Rag” in the style of Doc Watson. This is one of the most common bluegrass songs that you’ll hear at bluegrass jams. In this guitar lesson, we’re going to learn the old way of playing this song which includes four different parts — the A Part, B Part, C Part, and D Part. Sometimes you’ll hear people playing this song without the C Part that you’ll learn in this lesson. Also, we’ll learn this song in the key of C without a capo but a lot of times people will capo 2nd fret to play this melody in the key of D. After you learn the flatpicking guitar break and optional ending lick, practice your bluegrass flatpicking with our “Black Mountain Rag” backing track in the key of C.

I'll play through this "Black Mountain Rag" arrangement with tablature at a nice slow pace in the member area of Country Guitar Online for the intermediate to advanced pickers...
