Cluck Old Hen | clawhammer banjo song tutorial

[@chickenindoubleC]

Nice, Freddy! Thank you. This one is on my list. Someday I'll tackle it. What a great tune. I really appreciate your "songster" teaching method and how you make each song yours. Red Rocking Chair is next for me though!

[@FreddyBadger]

I'm glad you like my teaching style and my renditions. I try to keep the tradition while putting a little of my own style into it. Good luck with Red Rocking Chair! It's one of my favorites. Comment if you have any questions!

So excited! Thank you so much! I’d break out mine right now and learn if my room mates weren’t sleeping!

[@FreddyBadger]

Thanks for watching!

I've literally watched 2 year old tutorial earlier today, because I just got a banjo for my birthday! It's gonna be hard for me to learn the right hand propery, but this one is already clearer than the old vid!

[@FreddyBadger]

I'm glad you're finding this one to be helpful. Comment if you have any questions!

I love it. You do this song really well. I'm currently trying to learn to play the guitar.

[@FreddyBadger]

Glad you enjoy this version, thanks for watching!

Thanks for this! Just curious do you retune your banjos a lot or just keep different banjos in different tuning for the most part? I’m considering buying more out of pure laziness of not wanting to retune so often ha

[@FreddyBadger]

@@gelidsoul The banjo in this video I usually keep tuned around F. So I'll use different tunings, most often open F or sawmill, but I generally keep it in that vicinity. It's the banjo I usually use to accompany my singing. Then I have another banjo I keep tuned to G. This makes it easier to capo up to A and D, which are common keys for fiddle tunes; so I'll use that banjo when accompanying a fiddle. Retuning is part of the trade as a banjo player, but having more than one banjo is very convenient.
