From the mountains to the charts, the banjo is back! Thanksto its prevalence in folk and bluegrass music, the banjo helps define the very essence of “old-time music.” At least that was the case until the mid-2010’s when a new generation of pop artists made the old sound new again and scored pop hits with banjo-driven music. Banjo For Dummies helps out those who want to achieve that old-time sound as well as those who want to create the next chart topper. Packed with musical examples, charts, and photos, this step-by-step guide features tips and techniques for playing tunes on the banjo: how to select the right instrument and accessories: how to develop correct hand position and posture; and how to tune, care for, and make simple repairs to the instrument. Inside… – Getting to know the five-string banjo – Tuning your banjo – Making the left and right hands work together – Exploring historic, traditional, and modern styles – Taking care of a banjo – Going beyond the book with online lessons
