Why cut strings I'm sorry what are u doing man

i always find these videos on youtube that explain the basics of instrument playing so helpful as a composer..thank you!

No mention of which gauge goes where …useless

I’m using the chrome flat-wound strings. The flat-wound 3rd string G seems to be prone to problems. Is there a secret squirrel method the attaching it prevent wonky sounds and snapping strings?

3 fingers is not enough. my slings are slipping off when tuning. I should have waited to cut the frails.

Good idea with Barrel & upper joint, but messing with centre joint?. We never stop learning, but don't be precious on the job...we either HEAR it or not. Finally, we have a MUSICIAN who sounds like she can play.

Both are correct! Please remember your instrument is called a "Bb" clarinet. Therefore a written C sounds Bb. This also applies to the (Bb) trumpet. French horns and alto saxophones have a similar situation in that their written C sounds a note other than the piano C! Please do some research on the term "transposing instruments." I hope this will help your understanding and make sense to the situation.

Great video, stupid hair

I have to set up lefty, so step 1, kinda needs to be reversed?

blah blah blah for the first minute... Seriously guys - if you are going to put together an instructional video, how about getting straight into it instead of wasting everyone's time.

Threading pattern for the 5th string?

When you order Owen Wilson from wish but he can string a banjo now

Great content!!

❤

Man loosen them boys properly and don’t cut em, that’s a new set of strings for the player that’s down and out, always save your strings if they’re not broken! Heck, might break one and need a quick replacement, think of it as a spare tire

I've seen Daniel in the company of some of Austin's best jazz artists, and he always holds his own. He not only anchors the bass line, but, as this video demonstrates, he helps propel the song harmonically. An incredible musician who has embraced the bass as his voice. Always a fan.

😢 Dom forever.

I watched this and keep breaking strings. It doesn’t work for me.

I literally don't have a lid over the tailpiece. I just ordered this banjo and am a beginner. I am familiar with acoustic guitar tuning. Anyway, I need to know how to get underneath and no videos out there to help. It's a full size, 5 string valgoa?? Help

1:39 i don't have a banjo, might be getting one for Christmas, but from mandolin experience, i don't recommend taking all the strings off. I'd take one g and one e, put those on, other g, other e, one d, one a, so on so forth. Just so you have another string to tune it to. And I don't like adjusting the bridge position. I like raising it for high action but can't do that with a banjo

0:26 😂😂 "tones of Les Pauls, I got a banjo😂😂"

Very helpful video, I'll definitely use this in the future

That hair...

I thought D'Addario would have the definitive method but I found this video to be confusing. At 1:51, the video shows a single wrapping of the bass strings, but later, at 2:38, you can see the same strings have been wrapped an additional time. And there is no mention of wrapping the higher strings additional times.

Welp… I already f’d up and dropped the bridge 😂

Them about removing knots: yea so like, just do it.

Some of those old records were out of tune too but it worked cause everyone was out of tune together, seriously the rolling stones were good at it Lol😂😮

Background song?

Cannot see the bridge because you have your hand in the way it's the only thing I really wanted to see

I wish they would show a diagram of the two styles of mouthpieces talked about with maybe some arrows pointing to where the difference is in each one and what it means to be an open or closed style.

Are there ineducable students? I feel like I'm ineducable

Unless video.. no mention of what strings go where

Y’all didn’t even number the strings where they go wow

Nah. Tune up a tone. Have a ciggy and a brew. Come back, tune up and you are ready to pluck.

Thanks for sharing this! It’s something that all of us should know how to do. The tips about stretching the strings, turning counterclockwise, and how much should be left on the pegs are all things that the average person simply wouldn’t know. Much appreciated. Thanks!👍🏻

Great video…

Quick tip - change the 1st and 4th or 5th strings first and tune them. Then change the rest. This will help ensure your bridge is properly placed. Also check tuning at 12th fret to see if it’s super flat or sharp.

Very cool

What brand is that tuner he is using? That things looks awesome!

Actually a lifesaving video/ banjo girl

My new 6 string banjo just came in the mail today right after work 20 minutes ago and opened up a whole new world of frustration. I already broke a string by tuning it too tight while the strings were all flopping around and loose. It's a beautiful looking resonator banjo. But it so far it cant handle being tuned to a respectable level level. It might be good for some form of discordant noise rock as long as I don't really get into what I'm playing.

Great video, thank you. I have a very old mandolin from Europe that was my grandfather’s that I have some strings for and I’m gonna go ahead and start playing it.

I don’t have any tape

I always replace one string at a time rather than taking them all loose and having to deal with the bridge falling over. Seems to work much better...

If you change one pair of a string at a time, you dont need that masking tape .. if the whole point is, stopping the bridge to move, go from outside to insides.. G - E, D - A

No doubt it is fingers only,,,,excellent demonstration…..but one must persevere in practice….

This did not help at all. I mean common sense. Anyone can know how to put on a string. What dand string goes where that's the issue

Nice one, thank you!

this is very interesting on how to use that book with the gladstone technique. i cant wait to try it............thanks.
