I use a bumblebee thin thumbpick. The thin doesn't catch, and a fluid motion can be achieved after a while, since it is snappier than the thicker ones. Works ok for crosspicking.

If you loop someone's voice, inflection and the natural rhythm of speech create "music".
Rap relies on this. It's music, sort of.

I want to do some simple 2 track recording
I have:
A laptop
An inexpensive microphone
Learn double stops upside first. Your basic chords aren't too hard to figure out. Two note chords will probably lead you to the 3 string version anyway. Melody playing is melody playing, the high...
The wood burning is tastefully done. I don't see how it could affect tone at all. Unique and very nice. Big Muddys/Missouri are a little "twangy" to some people. But the tone is the tone, and it...
I have had better results with the wrap method over locking as well. It's also easier as long as the wrap doesn't uncoil, which is the reason some started locking it down with the bend I imagine. I...

Jump to the end.
Thanks Pete, I'll do that. I like this answer, in part it was "use your ear"
I would like to work more with chord melody (a la tenor banjo or uke)
Does anyone know some easy examples to get started?
Thanks!
I will, and no not my end. the music examples are hardly visible and cannot be resized in kindle for PC. These things need to be thought out before publishing. This is no comment on Mr Richters...
I purchased this ebook and attempt to view it for the PC. Did anyone else notice the tab does not resize and has lost ledger lines? Is this book formatted poorly? I find it very limited to use due to...
That's a great price, especially with the case. Since you played guitar, you'll have some idea if the action or intonation feels "off" Have fun.

What I realized from this is Charlie Pooles banjo just has that old sound, it wasn't just the result of the old recordings. Wat I mean is the old...
This makes a lot of sense

I discovered the above pdf from a few years ago. Wish it had some lush chords to play at pauses, but that's...
I can play upside down, but have a lefty. It isn't all that bad really, bass a bit easier than normal, treble trickier. Chords have to be adapted, I usually just double stop. Mandolin is so logical,...
Maybe you should have them replace the tailpiece with an Allen or equivalent -since it's already under repair? Not sure it's necessary at all, but I'd be considering while the repairs are in...
Can't .tefs be converted to musical notation?

Yes, I didn't read his description fully.
Maybe a wider neck
Done. Hope the research goes well DTEP
If your left hand is dominant, you will more than likely advance faster with a left-handed instrument. Power, precision, rhythm and drive is much easier. The picking hand is the "engine"
