Go Irish!!
Cannot see what spots you are talking about. Maybe show the whole banjo
Cool map
Thank you! My brother in law that’s in the army made it for me
Thanks from the UK. Great mini-tutorial! 🪕🎼
Glad it was helpful!
What if I’m a beginner on banjo but I’ve played guitar for years would you recommend a cheaper banjo or a higher priced one
In my opinion it all comes down to if you think you will like it. If you are positive you are going to stick with it I would begin with a mid grade model. $500-$1000.
Since you like the Recording King brand . Put your hands around an RKR 35 or 36. . Or even maybe an Elite ! You’ll love them ! ❤🪕
I actually played a elite that my buddy had! Very nice
I purchased a 4 string Beltone Irish tenor banjo thinking it would be easiest to play IDK, but I really want to learn how to play some Dixie or Irish tunes.
✅🪕
Thanks, was very helpful! Gonna diy mine from belts and fake fur laying around the house. 😂 God bless
I’m enjoying your music videos .
First Very nice
Thanks 🤗
As a teacher and beginner banjo player, I must say that this is one of the most efficient and comprehensive videos I have ever seen on any subject. This is a really brilliant explanation. thank you
Wow, thanks!
I own that same banjo that's behind u mine even has the same headstock, which that style of headstock was only made before 2008
Yea I had to buy me a “Gumby style”headstock goodtime .. they are great banjos. I make videos with that one all the time
Thanks for a great and useful vid. The only thing I could complain about is that now I have to save up for that gorgeous Chicago style strap. That looks to be the apex banjo strap.
You and me both!
I have to use the “right shoulder” method, mainly because I have a long neck banjo and using the left shoulder means I can’t reach the peg head.
So how about us guys with long neck Vegas know which strings long enough. Great vid, it I need long neck details!
Great suggestion!
This doesn’t feel very beginner friendly as a beginner
1-3 year beginner.. sorry probably should have stated that!
Tune your banjo!!!!!
I bought a Vega longneck from Dearing, last year in July and it didn’t arrive until November. I love their cases, too, but I don’t care at all for the HUGE logo. I paid good money for that banjo and I don’t think I should also have to advertise for Dearing with a logo that can be seen from outer space. Oh yeah, it’s one of the overall best instruments I’ve ever played, and I own an early seventies Mossman guitar.
Thanks. I live in NC. I am going to see that someday. I drove by yesterday it is a hour and a half drive from here. Was in to big of a hurry. I could not take the time I would have wanted to be there with what I had.
Kind of a let down, but a must for any banjo that has a chance to go there
@@BanjoAddict I have been playing the banjo for a half year now. I plan on sticking to it. I love it. I got invited to some music jams in mint hill, so I should be able to learn some new songs. There aren't many songs to learn online. I have already put it on my calendar to see the Earl Scruggs Center. I kinda got edicted.
Are you liking the clawhammer more?
I am loving clawhammer much better
Nice!!! I love the head on it. I too have a Deering Sierra. Nice sound you have there. I don't have a strap yet, I need one badly.
That’s awesome!
Remember everybody,, It's your banjo 🪕 You play it how ever you want too, as long as you play it, right.... If you like the sound and you are having loads of fun, well keep jamming... 😊😊😊 Every player is going to have their own sound and playing technique...✝️🇺🇸🤠🪕🪕🪕
NICE!! How long have you played banjo and when did things start to click for you? Thx for the video!
Well I started 3 finger style in 2010. And I started clawhammer in late 2019 early 2020. About a year in on both styles things started coming together
Be very very afraid as you may get addicted to clawhammer and never go back 3 finger style.
You are right! 4 years later and I mainly play clawhammer. And I am loving it!!!
I was wondering what this video was doing in the banjo music theory playlist, but it was great practice applying the music theory I am learning. Thanks for the playlist!
😮😮😮😮
great video! as a person with many hobbies some not cheap, i have always felt buy the best you can afford. that being said, so many people get these great ideas "i am going to be a banjo player" and never put in the time or follow through. if you are one of those people i say definitely buy a cheaper model. my problem was there were no music stores that carried open back models in my area and few resonator banjos. so "trying out" a banjo was a joke. so i researched online and prayed i would like the banjo i ordered. my first was a Deering Artisan Americana which i still have. it was a good beginning choice. i since have 8 banjos (Deering, Pisgah, Gold Tone, Sylvan, Stone, Mulheron) with different heads and tone rings. No one told me banjo's are addicting! LOL
The older Japanese banjos from 70s/80s are also great banjos for that you can find for under $400. And are comparable quality to the $1000 Chinese ones today. I found an old saga metal rim banjo for 300 dollars with d tuners. And surprisingly very bright and clean sounding. So cheap doesn’t have to be junk. Haha
Great video. Is that an old-school Gumby peghead Deering Goodtime behind you? If you have any insight on this, could you do a similar video on the pros and cons of buying new vs used (both for affordable and higher end banjos; and buying from a private party vs from a company like Reverb)? I'm still a ways off from buying my next banjo, but my eyes are kind of set on a Nechville...buying one used would take some of the sting out of their full-priced ($$$) models.
There's something about buying the least expensive instrument and taking good care of it and learning to get something good out of it that just satisfies me
Great clawhammer tune! 👍
What a godsend! This video alone, gets a Like/Subscribe/Bell
Thank you! I hope to have more like this one by the end of the year
Absolutely love this song. Great job❤❤😂
Hey I've been looking around for a tutorial and I can't ant find one. My frets are sharp and its not a bridge issue, the action on my banjo is much too high but I have no idea how to lower it as my banjo doesnt have an outaide nut. If there is any advice you have please let me know!
What’s the brand and model of your banjo?
@@BanjoAddict Oh sorry! It's an ADM 5 String with a Remo Drum. I tried to comment earlier but I linked the amazon link for it and that deleted my comment!
I have been playing clawhammer since Nov.2022, when i look back at my first videos man have i came a long way! C chord was a pain, not now, F chord a pain, better now. it just takes practice, for me every day. i did a lot of rt hand practice including drop thumb but it truly helped me better when playing a simple song with drop thumb in it. i still have a long way to go, but i love the journey! i know about 15 songs so far by memory in the keys of G, sawmill and now learning double C tunings. they say it can take 3000 hours of playing to really get it down, that i believe is like 3 years! lol looking forward to future videos on your progress.
Hey thanks a lot. I recorded this video sometime in early 2020 and the drop thumb has come a long way since then lol! I also found that just adding a random drop thumb into songs I already knew well helped me get it down also.
Have FUN
I made a banjo strap from a length of one-inch webbing that was originally a dog leash. I had to do some cutting and sewing to make it work--a bakelite "Paramount" banjo--same as a Harmony of that vintage.
That is awesome!
Love it
Nice
Thanks
Your Sierra sounds pretty good . What caused the buzz ?
The slot at the nut had cracked.. I had to have the nut replaced
This is what claw hammer banjo players are supposed to sound like, everybody has there own sound. Your doing just fine.. subscribed and i am a fan...
thank you for the kind words!
Exactly my friend..😊😊 Doing great buddy.. Yes slow it down and speed will come in time.. your doing fine. You can do this. You got this buddy.. Keep the videos coming..😊😊😊😊😊😊 😊✝️🇺🇸🤠🪕🪕🪕🪕 Remember, Practice SLOW & Practice Practice & then Practice more..
Thank you so much 😀
