Ok, here’s my version of Pike County Breakdown. It’s a bit different than the original. I think you’ll like it. Mainly I have added one of my favorite endings into the lesson.
You can use this ending in a lot of different tunes. It’s a great one to learn. Have fun!

Ryan, there’s another part I like to add for flavor. When you use your pinkie on the 5th fret, I go to (7-8-9) which is G, then to (5-6-7) F: then bar 5th fret,C, then back to full D. That gives a variety to the picking. If you don’t understand what I writing I can send it in tab. Use all forward rolls in these positions.I have never seen anyone use this, but there may have been. I just tried it one day and it works.
