Jim... I love it. I tell you... another fella has this in 13 lessons... you do it all in one and much easier to follow. Now, to be fair, I think the other fella adds a lot of other fancy stuff in it, and that is all well and good if you have been playing for years maybe, but your teaching style and lesson format is just so much easier for people like me who are just learning and get frustrated so easily. Thank you for making these lessons so approachable.

I've been messing with it for almost an hour and can't do it without killing the sound of the 2nd string when I do the bend and it sounds wrong.

Man, I love this song, and have done your whole series on starting banjo. It may be a banjo issue, mine does not have a resonator, and I think sounds higher than yours does. Basically I think from the second set of rolls on it sounds too high. Meaning it doesn’t seem to match the song. When I go to open rolls it sounds ok, but then from C to D the tone doesn’t seem to match the tune of the song. I also have some trouble following you on the part where you say forward and reverse, as the forward and reverse you do is different from the starting banjo forward and reverse. Thanks for all you do, been loving your series and am thankful to be learning the banjo.

I am just now learning banjo. Have played guitar for years and I'm really wanting to learn banjo now. I'm loving your videos and how you teach. This song is my first song I wanted to learn. I've tried playing it on banjo by just doing a fingerstlye pattern, for now, like I do on guitar. Wrong, but at least, it kept me motivated to keep learning and worked for the meantime. I now am practicing rolls, so that I can play correctly and learn banjo well. I have a Fender and by looking up pictures of different Fender banjos and studying the inlays, etc., I'm thinking it's a 54 (fb54?). Action is kind of high, but still seems to be good beginner banjo to learn from. Will that make it harder to learn with that higher action? If I learn well, one of these days, I want to get a Deering Sierra or Calico. I've been studying those and from watching KZbin, it seems the Sierra has a lower, mellow sound and the Calico has a brighter sound. So far, I'm loving the Sierra sound. Of those two, which do you like the best and are they a good, nice, upgrade banjo to own and to stick to (if I get good enough, lol)? Thank you!
@JimPankey5 жыл бұрын
How high is high? I like my action 1/8” at the 12th fret. I’ve always thought the Calico was a pretty banjo. A lot of other brands to look at though, so don’t make your mind up too quickly. Feel free to check out my beginner series.

Hey Jim, I'm Brazilian and I've been watching your videos since I got my banjo, about two weeks ago. Since you taught me like everything I know I decided to bought your TAB Book "32 arrangements and ideas for bluegrass banjo", which helped me even more and is really great, but some of the songs I can't figure out how to play just listening to the original songs, because some of them are really fast. The one that I'm stuck with now is "banjo signal" cause I can't figure out the end, I've listened to some versions but I still can't understand like the timing and pretty much anything of the final part, so I was wondering if you could post some videos, not only of banjo signal, but of the others songs of the book that you don't have videos playing them to help me and the other buyers to follow and learn them. Doesn't have to be walk through videos, just the demos, maybe just played slower so we could follow with the tab. I appreciate all of your work, and thank you for all of your help, really yours are the best tutorials that I've watched and everything that in just two weeks I'm now capable to do I own to you. Thank you very much again, and I hope that you answer my request. Ps: Sorry for any english mistakes, I hope everything is understandable.

Hey Jim, thanks for this lesson. A quick question, at a jam session would this be played in G or F?

Depends on the singer. I’ve done it in all sorts of keys.

I think there are two versions of this song as this sounds nothing like the version Clooney sings in the movie.

It’s the same song. I learned it from the Stanley Brothers in the 70s. Also, Clooney didn’t sing it.

Thanks Jim! I picked it up very quickly and learned this today, but I am trying to play along with the song now and man it feels impossible. It's so fast that I can't remember what to hit next even though I practiced it for quite a while today. Any tip on how to improve there, or is it just playing for a longer period of time till I get used to it? I play guitar and bass and I have no problem there will following songs, but this song is so fast, it feels impossible.

Slow down, take your time, and don’t expect to be able to “just do it”. It’ll come. Keep practicing.

Love the song & music style. Thanks for sharing. What's the difference from the 36 and the RK20? I'm thinking the 20 may be of inferior components?

Thanks! Yes, the RK36 is a pro quality instrument where the RK20 is a good student instrument.

Hi there Jim I have bought my first musical instrument, a Banjo at the young age of 68 and am keen to learn this song. Could you please send me the numbers (ie 432 215 and so on) for the whole song please I am battling to get the whole tune in sequence.
