beautiful banjo!!

[DrummerboySoto]

omg im sitting here trying to learn thi and i cant get it wel i can but the roles and stuff is hard to figure out, im a guitarist of 2 yrs and i find the banjo so much more harder because of the right hand any tips????

@DrummerboySoto All I can say is keep practicing. I could never get the hang of the guitar. So I picked up the banjo. I could easily figure out the first 3 or 4 measures pretty simply. Here is what I do. F is fret and S is string. so 3F 3S, 1S, 5S, !S, 3F 3S, 2F 1S, 5S, 1S open. I use my pointer on the 2nd string, middle on the first and thumb on the 5th. I also use picks as they help.

Hope this helps you.

It is not easy..You play rythm at the same time as the song...It takes seperating the music from the dron pluck before you really can get it....but always worth trying

where does he get all those fine banjo's from?

[benzruler1]

how would i clean the white part or drum sounding part on my banjo?

[amerikanerMarinen]

My uncle always had a cloth rag and some WD 40.

[Whitelightng]

better to replace it...A little dirty spot here and there is a good thing ...Makes ya look cool..:)

The Magic Eraser works wonders....though I kind of miss my dirt spot now that it's gone...
