I just stumbled on to your channel. Jim pankey lessons got me started but the banjo is so much more than bluegrass twang and bang and I want to learn everything I can about it. So this lesson really really helps me. Now I will have to find your book.
Aaaahhh screw it, I bought the book after I saw the PDF sample in your description. I’m a piano player diving into banjo so this kind of practice speaks to me. I don’t plan on playing classical, but I’d like to be able to noodle in every key along to my own recordings, or other musicians. Excited to check it out, thanks for the video.
yes, but this is "classical" banjo as opposed to "classic" banjo. I do use the drop C tuning for a lot of things but study the fingerboard more in the raised D tuning.
Great! Just got the book and an extra copy for my banjo mentor of 50 years ago!
awesome!
Cannot wait to get home tonight to practice these!
Thanks Rebecca - let me know if you have any questions or ideas for future vids.
This seems like fun I’ll give it a shot thank you.
John, I met you several years ago at Richie’s shop. Been a follower since then, and just want to say thanks for doing this book.
I appreciate that!
