Howzit go?


This is a slightly crooked québecois version of a straight tune called the Lucky Trapper by Andy Desjarlis. The Québec version is took this straight tune in G major and modified it to be a crooked tune in D major.
Welcome to the folk process!
Here’s ToQue’s own Rob Rohr playing the tune at session speed.
A slower version for learning.
And here’s a transcription of how I play the tune that I put together at the time.
Fiddlers, embrace the double stops and the high third finger C#s on the G-string!
