Bluegrass Banjo Basics
|
DescriptionThis application was designed for beginner banjo players (who just started to follow the legendary Earl Scruggs or the revolutionary Bela Fleck) in need of some resources, pieces, songs to learn, guitar jamtracks to play along with, hints and tips in learning rolls, and also for guitarists who are interested in learning to play the five string banjo."It is truly and excellent learning tool... way easier to follow than a book. All types of learning (visual, audible, hands-on) are encouraged with this fantastic resource." "Awesome! I have NEVER learned something so demanding so fast with such an enjoyment!" "Great App for beginning banjo players! Easy to follow, well formatted. It's a nice portable version of an intro book." With this handy scrolling tab app You can easily learn basic chords, rolls, songs to sing and a few shiny but not-hard-to-play arrangements of pieces like "Tom's Breakdown", "Bill Cheatham", "I Saw the Light" or "Bile'm Cabbage Down". Every new element you learn will be put into practice immediately, and a nice acoustic guitar track backs you up in every exercise and piece. If you don't want to spend money on your first "entry level" instrument, here's what to do: Turn your guitar into a "practice banjo"! All you need to do is to remove the E6 string, and then substitute the A string with a high E (E1st) string and tune it up to the high g note (like E1st string at the 3rd fret). Then you tune your original E1st string down a whole note d, then you can play your guitar like a five string banjo.

What's New in Version 1.5- Pull-of technique exercises- New video instruction - Styled text pages - Minor graphics updates Customer ReviewsIncredible app (5 stars)More useful than any of the 6 or so books I've bought to learn to play. The scrolling feature is wonderful to help keep in time and not losing your place. Its a great practice tool that should help anyone learn the basics. The 1st app I've spent more than $.99 on and worth three time the $4 it cost. I'm about to get the second edition to! Makes learning fun (5 stars) I am a fan of this app. All day at work I can't wait to get home and play the banjo. I have had a banjo for a little Under a year. I played for about a week when I first got it and soon lost interest. With this app I have been going strong for two weeks and can't wait to get the next app from this provider. I love it. Great way to visualize the music (5 stars) Where is Bluegrass Banjo 3! This app is fantastic, and a great tool for learning banjo. This is the future of music instruction.
