On December 24,2006 at 8 o'clock in the morning, a young 14 year old boy by the name of Scott Jackson was found dead.Doctors couldn't come up with the cause of his death.His mother checked his emails to see if she could figure out what happened.Turns out he was still signed into myspace.She found he had gone to sleep after he read and didn't repost a chain letter.if you don't repost this to 6 videos a girl with no face will kill you tonight. sorry don't wanna die
thanks banjofrets for metioning the double thumb it saved time in wondering what was right ,double T's are great but seem to be substituded in a lot of cases in fast play
quick noobish question from someone who's never played banjo before; what's with the fifth string that starts at the 5th fret? just wondering. i mean, why not widen the rest of the fretboard and have it extend all the way down the neck?
In standard tuning the 5th (short) string is tuned to G (1 octave above the 3rd string). That makes the 5th string, 6th fret a G#, 7th fret A, etc.. If you extended the 5th string and tuned it to G, the 5th String, 6th fret would be a C#, 7th fret D, etc. All of the notes on the 5th string would move.
You actually change the way you play it from slow demo to fast picking. You are playing a double thumb in the slow demo and you're not when you pick fast. In your sixth demo unit (most are 3 notes) you return to the fifth string just before your standard lick at the end. (sliding 2-3 3rd string f/r roll). you fast pick it with i-m-i instead. Nice lick though.

Is the picking technique for the banjo in anyway simliar to bass? I want to buy a banjo and i already play bass.

Not really...but if you're musical, you should be able to pick up the 3 finger style without too much issue..
