  • Stroke-Style banjo instruction, free!



    This is a beginning stroke-style banjo instruction video by Tim Twiss of Milford, Mi.

    This lesson is straight from the 1858 Phil. Rice Correct Method for the Banjo.

    Now there's nothing standing between you and absolute affluence, besides the learning of it! :wink_smil

      Wow, thanks alot for posting this, the visual aspect sure makes the concept much easier.The technique is very reminisent of when I was learning to play slap funk bass on electric, and similar to rockabilly doghouse slap styles, I use.
      Thanks,
