You may never have heard this patriotic song being played on five string banjo before. Johan Engels does it!

  • would you give me notes for that please?

  • @Xanatos1000

    I'm sorry , but I can hardly read music , so I can't give you any notes.

    Mostly I listen to a tune and then try to play it.

    Best Wishes,

  • i love it. i am working on this song right now. i have the basic tune down now i need to make it sound bluegrassy

  • that is verey good i just love it

  • @banjokid17 its ok sir, i asked because i wana play this song song praise and worship in our church, if i only knew the notes, but anyways, thats a nice strumming you did

  • That was lovely. It's the first time I've seen that piece played on a 5-string banjo. You did a great job. Thanks for posting it, and thumbs up to you.

  • Love this version! Great job!

  • nice and uniqe

  • You are right of course , basically it is the 3-finger style ,but I am not a professional like Earl Scruggs and my style of playing is much less complicated , as you will notice.

    best wishes,

  • Isnt he just playing the conventional Earl Scruggs three-finger way? I'm no banjo player, but thats what it looks like to me.
