I will be following you Tren. I have just started and have bad arthritis in my right hand and clawhammer seems the best method for me. Thanks
Thanks Trent, I have an SG too, had it for around 20 years now, I don’t know why I’m telling you this, but anyway thanks for the lesson.
@@mangastache you got it! SG gang. I bought that brand new from New York Music in Boardman, OH when I was 17-so 20 years as well! I think I paid $1116 dollars for it with a wad of cash as I didn’t have a bank account. I made like $6 an hour back then and saved for months to buy it.
Great video - thank you.👍🏻
there may be hope for my claw after all

Thank you.
Ty dude
I don’t own an open back banjo; I have a cheap Oscar Schmidt resonator banjo. I tried Scruggs style but I like the Clawhammer sound much better. Can I learn on the Oscar Schmidt, or should I get a decent open back, like Deering Goodtime?
As long as it’s a 5-string then you can use it to learn. Most resonators can be removed if it’s too loud for you.
I can’t speak for a Deering Goodtime as I’ve never played one, but I know a lot of people seem to like them. I’m suspicious of them since they don’t have a truss rod, but I am by no means saying they are junk or not to look into one, I just can’t speak to them.
I had a Gold Tone CC-OT for years that I still use that was somewhere around $400-$500, and I hear a lot of people talking about the new Gold Tone AC-1.
There are a lot of other options out there but the one you have will work just fine until you make a decision.
You play on the neck. Some play down lower. What is the deal?
Playing closer to the neck gives a darker tone. 100% personal preference-there’s no right or wrong place to play!
The closer you get to the bridge, the snappier the sound will be
