Dude, this is just amazing! Breaking things down to individual steps is a great aid to learning, and you do it here in a way I've never seen before! I'm forwarding this to a couple of music teachers right now who I think will appreciate your approach. Also gonna look through your vids myself to see what other gems I can find!!
That is an eye opener and explained in a way that is approachable and not totally intimidating. Not that it won't be hard to accomplish...but it makes sense now.
I don’t get the “12 notes”. I think I understand 121 12321 1234321 123454321 progression. G through D in G major. I count either five unique notes or 24 separate but not unique notes. I love your exercises. I agree your Picky Figures interview caused me to stop scrolling past your posts. I’m a very button-down 70 year old personality. Keep up the good work.
The original concept of the 5th string is that it is a drone string tuned to the root note. It can be used at most any time without fretting is the idea.
Ricky, you keep showing this old banjo geezer so much more than I ever realized is possible. Thanks for such a great lesson.
there is no other single string lesson anywhere that is as comprehensive and artfully done as this one, Thanks Rick
My pleasure bruv thanks for the positive vibes

Great explanation and terminology for folks to pick up on. 👍
Inventive & creative - I very much admire your pioneering of new frontiers.
Love it, banjo calisthenics. Time to put in some work!
Nice analysis. 6 months' practice material there. Just listened to your Picky Fingers. WAY more interesting than Game of Thrones.
This is great content. You are the Master. This will be my next challenge on the banjo.thank you.
Well, there ya go!

Enlightening!
Thank you
very nice...
I watched again. 3 notes x 4 strings = 12. I looked up “noob”
You got it!
No fifth string?
Fifth string is overrated.. 🤣
It's the same as the first 🤠
