I'm only about 10 minutes into the video but I can already tell you're my favorite UA-cam banjo teacher so far. Thank you for the the lesson. I'm gonna make it through this one.
Your teaching style is really, really effective, and you teach at a skill level that most of youtube doesn't get to (most stop before hammer ons and pull offs). please keep teaching!
Thanks! I really appreciate the kind words - and yes, I will have some more videos coming out soon. Watch this space :)
I scored a banjo for dirt cheap yesterday, and this is the first video I've found that made everything make sense for an absolute beginner. Thank you
Brilliant! Thanks for watching, and for the kind comment.
I've been busy with fatherhood recently, but I'm coming back to make more videos in the coming months, so stay tuned
great video. i have been playing clawhammer for about 8 months. one thing i have learned there is a 100 ways to skin a cat! there are so many ways to play this tune, not to mention a lot of old time songs have tons of different lyrics lol as a beginner, it seems easier at first to try and follow one person/teacher and then branch out when you have the foundation securely under your belt. i first started watching tons of youtube videos of different musicians and it was too overwhelming. i agree that most online teachers don't break the tunes down enough for beginners. keep up the great work, looking forward to more of your videos.
Thanks! glad you liked the video - I'll definitely be uploading more :)
I was struggling so much with the clawhammer style after getting my banjo a few days ago and this was the video that made it click for me. Thank you very much!
Thanks so much - glad you found it helpful. I'll be putting up more lessons soon :)
Fantastic lesson. You make each section of the song understandable with great suggestions for when to pause and practice. I feel lucky to have found your channel. Thank you!
Thanks so much, glad it was useful for you! 😊
Just want to say a massive thank you! You got me started on this tune and banjo itself. I play it slightly different now after a friend gave me some in person help. I was stuck at a certain point .
Yiu really broke it down so well for a total novice like me .
So happy I can now play the whole tune . Obvs not that well, but improving day by day.
Can’t express how happy I am ..
Cheers!
Awesome! Thanks so much - glad you found it helpful.
There are so many variations on Cripple Creek - ultimately it's just down to each individual to play it their own way. I will put out some more videos some point soonish!
Thanks so much for this! Only just a hired a 5-string banjo and you’ve given me hope of being able to play a tune or two - with lots of practice course 😊
Awesome! Glad to be of help. More videos will be coming out soon to help anyone learning clawhammer! :)
This is perfect and exactly how i need to learn, i appreciate you breaking it down and explaining so well.
No worries. Thanks for watching! I'll do some more videos at some point!
Fantastic! This is the first song lesson I followed along with after just recently getting a banjo. And I can't believe how quickly I was able to pick things up with your instruction! 😲 It's just too much fun to play, it's hard to remind myself to slow down and practice things more accurately 😅 Thanks and I can't wait to watch more of your videos!
Thanks so much. I'll be putting some more videos out soon!
Excellent lesson. I really like your teaching style! Thanks
Thanks so much! Glad to be of help
Man that's so clean, sounds great!
Thanks!
Okay... please keep posting. You're really a wonderful teacher. I'm a science teacher (my channels are sickscience and thespanglereffect), and I've been looking for a great banjo teacher. You're it! Seriously, your patience and humility when it comes to inspiring your students are such great qualities. I'm glued to your channel hoping for more songs like Cripple Creek. Until then, I'll keep practicing this one. Huge thanks - Steve Spangler
:D Thanks so much. I'll be posting some new videos soonish I hope! Thanks for the kind words
Thanks
I play scruggs style, and want to learn clawhammer! But it looks so hard!!!!
It's not actually too hard, just unintuitive! I have a few other videos that might help, and will be posting more!
this is great thanks so much!
Glad you like it!
Getting back into clawhammer after an extended break, thank for posting this, its what I need to get my chops back up. It's true what they say, if you don't use it, you loose it. A quick question, what is the finger pick you use? I prefer playing with my middle finger as well, but the volume is quieter than when I use my index, and I'm wondering if what you wear will help with that.
Glad you find this helpful!
Playing with a fimgerpick will definitely make your playing louder. I also find it to be more accurate, which is why I first started doing it.
I use a few different ones, but they're all much the same. I'd recommend just buying 2 or 3 different types of metal (they have to be metal!) fimgerpicks and trying them out, to see what suits you.
Dunlop is always a good bet. You may need to shape the pick to best suit you. Basically, experiment and try a few things out 👍
What is the best banjo for a beginner and is claw Hamer the best method
Best banjo depends on your budget - I reckon buy the best you can afford. Most consumer reviews are fairly accurate I think.
And there is no best method, they're all quite different with different strengths and weaknesses.
Clawhammer is coolest though 😎
I’m one week into owning my first banjo and I’m hoping to be able to learn this painstakingly slow so that I can play it well. How long will it take? I have no idea, but thank you for aiming your teaching at those such as me 😊
Just take your time - it can take a while for it all to come together, but it will eventually. Clawhammer is a weird style to get used to, but once you have it it's quite straightforward
I am curious about the pick you use on your middle finger. Could you tell me about?
I've tried different picks over the years, but I always prefer metal ones. Ultimately, I'd advise trying out a bunch to see if you like them. If you keep your finger nails shorter, like I do, it will help you with accuracy, tone and volume!
I love your tutoring of this song I’d like it if you could do one on Wildwood Flower. I subscribe to your Chanel so I can find it if you do 👍
Thanks so much. Glad you liked it. I'll add that suggestion to the list 👍
@@clawhammerandfrailingbanjo6366 would also love wildwood flower, its one of my favs
Hey man what type of pick do i need for clawhamer
Hey! You don't need a pick - you could just grow out your striking nail slightly.
If you do want to use a pick (I do!) then most normal metal ginger picks will do. You just need to wear them back to front so that it acts as a fake nail.
I have experimented with different fingerpicks and loads work equally well. I'd encourage you to buy a few types and see what works for you. I've only ever liked the metal ones (partly because I can bend them to the perfect shape and angle) but your mileage may vary!
@@clawhammerandfrailingbanjo6366 thank you so much man
No worries. Good luck!
This cool mostly your not showing the bum diddy great job thanks a million excellent
Glad to be of help! Thanks for watching
