OK. So, for the last few months, I've been playing my mandocello one of two "cheater" ways.
1. Just playing mandolin tunes as though the mandocello is tuned like a mandolin.
2. With a capo on the 2nd fret and playing mandolin tunes adjusted by one string.
In both cases, I've been playing music transcribed on the treble clef. At this point, I've got the treble clef pretty well mapped to the mandolin fretboard and the cheater versions of the mandocello fretboard.
But, I'm now wanting to play music I only have transcribed in bass clef.
While I could just muddle along and learn it gradually, like I did with the mandolin and treble clef, I'm looking for a more rapid way to get it locked into my head.
Any suggested techniques for learning this mapping quickly? I don't want this to take months.
