    Jim greetings from the UK. I got my first banjo 2 days ago at age 67!. Having found your videos on youtube I have been binge watching them. I have dived into your beginners lesson No1. You have a great teaching style and your experience really comes through. Many thanks for all your efforts.

    Jim your teaching style works well for me. I’m starting with music late in life (age 61) with a borrowed banjo. While Santa Claus is beyond me at this point, this video helps me to connect some dots, and as you said provides a tune to put in my head.
    Thanks for doing what you do! I’m subscribed, following your lessons, and a Patreon ❤

    I have enjoyed your banjo videos and I have a banjo that I am learning. I just have to mention an observation. I love the cross on your head stock! I haven't been able to watch for a while so I'm sure there's a story that I will find since it's on your shirt also. God bless you!

    Hi Jim! Hope you're doing well. I just came back inside from banjo picking on the front porch. It's awful humid outside and I'm getting eaten alive by mosquitos. I was just practicing Cripple Creek, only to come back to the tv to find you playing Cripple Creek. Cheers matey!

      @@JimPankey thanks Jim. Summer is brutal in Australia right now. High humidity and tons of mosquitos this season. I went hiking with a buddy this week but the trail was washed out from heavy rain and we got lost. Had to bush bash a crawling pace for 3 hours to find the trail and get us back on track. Lucky there was a swimming hole to skinny dip into and cool off. Not sure that counts as "enjoying" summer. Well, cheers! Take care.

    sounds good, that banjo sounds different from the other one you play. the sound sounds more enclosed on that banjo. More of a chime, I think, the cords sound cleaner

    Hey Jim pankey, I was wondering what banjo you play?? My favorite sounding is ob3 from gold tone but I'm curious to know what you play. Same with strings, I mean for strings, I might have to use 10-11 gauge strings because I have a super slow, but heavy right hand

    • @JimPankey

      This banjo is a Stelling I’ve had since 1982.
      I used medium strings on it.

    Without the tabs your lessons are useless. Calling out the numbers is extremely hard to remember!!!

      I have trouble with tabs so I like his method. Somewhere around 7 minutes he mentioned where tabs are found if you missed it friend.
