Mandolin Trainer Workbooks FFcP + Pentatonic Fretboard Mastery
Call slips
Many days in this workbook ask you to draw a call at random, so you cannot warm up into the answer. Print this page and cut along the dashed lines. Keep each set in its own cup. Each day says which sets to draw from and how many calls to take. Slips you write yourself work just as well.
Key and position 28 slips
All twenty eight calls, one key and one position to a slip. Week 1 Saturday, Week 2 Wednesday, Friday and Sunday, Week 5 Saturday and Week 8 Sunday draw from these. Take only the slips the day names.
