Very nice. Nothing's sweeter than a waltz. You showed us several ways.
You are so easy on the eyes. Oh, and please, more waltzes! Thank you for all your videos!!
You are a great banjo teacher! I've played guitar all my life but just added banjo to my show three weeks ago. You are helping me learn songs quickly.
Thanks Clifton yes more waltzes !
id love more waltz videos as well :) thank you for all your videos and knowledge sharing!
Damn Clifton you are nothing but good...I always get some great pointers on my 2 finger plying.Thanks so much.
Great staff
Yes we want more waltzes man!!!
thank u . great lessons .
Try Amazon Grace in waltzes time! It works for me. Thanks Clifton!
Dang my cousin had me check you out, this channel and your music is so good! I'm learning a ton. And I'm super interested in seeing a 2 finger blues video!
The way you play Rye Whiskey is pure brilliance! A lot of country music stars have made a lot of money playing waltz style songs.
Thanks, boss!
Banjo blues too. Thanks
Yes please do more waltzes!
Will do!
Would love to learn more waltz’s from you!
More walts Mr. Hick.
Please. Thank you
Hi Clifton,, The problem I always found with waltz time was having to sacrifice in parts the 3/4 underlining rhythm to play the melody and then returning to the beat again..making it sound broken...what I discovered was playing ( bum ditty bum)(bum ditty bum) allows me to do both..like a soldier never breaking step..the melody always staying on top of a constant 3/4 beat...no breaks sounding fluid..I know its simple but works for me...now I am waiting to get shot down by everyone.but if this helps someone out there cool..Jackdaw
I have to agree with you, but a friend of mine is having trouble playing along with me on his guitar for that exact reason. I prefer never breaking step when I'm playing clawhammer alone, but with my friend, he just can't seem to find his way into the song without changing his entire style. For instance, I see most guitarists strumming along to the clawhammer banjo on an acoustic guitar. He plays electric and doesn't use a pick. If I play clawhammer, I play the melody, I play the chords, I even play the drum, so what's he supposed to do? I take up all the space. I believe focusing on the melody a little more like this might make it easy to provide some backing if anything.
Doing the waltz time in clawhammer
This banjo sounds so warm..i have a really nice deering banjo but its so damn loud sometimes hahah
That is a c. 1910 Weymann. 2-piece maple neck on a 1-ply maple rim, and no tone ring.
👍👍
Great,,,,tuning please.
Excellent presentation on 3/4 time. Ive been addicted to clawhammer for over 60 years and just learned a few new things from this video.
Other ways to play 3/4 time is 'Round Peak' clawhammer technique employing 'alternate string pull offs' and/or 'Galax Licks' (2-3 string slow arpeggios), ... or 'jig toggling' (6/8 time) where you 'pick' a full note below the 'target' note with your finger then hammer-on the target note usually with the third finger and finish the target note with a quick pull off to an open string from the second/target note --- good for 'highly ornamented' Celtic clawhammer and 'vital' for playing the fast jigs.
Rx: use a pull off or alternate string pull off for the '1,2,3' sequence.
These methods are best if you center your notes/chords around the fifth fret ... as the strings will be 'more stretchy', especially for alternate string pull offs. Centering on the 5th fret also doubles the availability of cordal patterns .... on the lower strings but with the second string used as your 'lead' string (instead of the first string) and with less hand/finger stretch to the 'higher' cords/notes.
Could you play Groundhog 2 fingered banjo at about half speed so that I can hear the sound of each note, perhaps each verse separately. Thank you (great tuition)
Im just learning to play and looking for some easy/easier songs to play. do you have any suggestions and do you have the any tabs for this one? I love this song
East Virginia is pretty simple if you play it straight overhand (or "clawhammer") style: czcams.com/video/hrNzCLKaz1I/video.html
So you are allowed to use your thumb on the second string sometimes ;) @3:52
Yes! There are no "rules" here! Especially when it comes to this 3-count "waltz" rhythm--one has to get the music out of the banjo any way one can. You'll also note that even when I am playing a straight two-finger piece my thumb will drop-thumb down to the second string at times. The only thing I probably _never_ do is drop my thumb to the first string.
Thanks for that Clifton, I was beginning to think it was impossible, but now I see a glimmer of hope! I absolutely love your playing ;)
Do you ever play the 4 string tenor banjo?
I never have! I'm sure I *could,* but they are quite rare in the South.
What tuning are you in?
Are there tabs?
good player yerrible teacher
