When you are learning to play it is often difficult to find really good musicians to play with you at the slow to moderate speeds you need. This collection solves that problem. And the entire collection costs less than one private lesson from a teacher!

These tracks can be used to practice playing chords or solos with a first-class bluegrass groove. The tracks were recorded by professionals and include guitar, mandolin and bass. Frequent use of these tracks will improve the playing of any banjo, guitar, mandolin, fiddle, dobro or bass player.
