I already laughed out loud before you realized you inserted the picks the other way round. Quickly, I remembered one of the Carter sisters doing the reverse strumming. I'm a beginner. So I really appreciate your videos. Thanks
Had a hard time coming off the money for Blue chip. Now I would never use anything else. First got the regular one, but the tip was too long and he traded me for the JD Crowe pick, no hassle. I use an Acri pick on my middle finger and a Sammy Shelor pick with the wider band on my index finger. I have always had problems with the picks coming off and the wider band helps, but using an Acri pick on my index finger felt too cumbersome, so I went with the SS pick there. Thank for the video.
Hey, I love videos. I too use Ernie Balll finger picks. They are all I have ever used. Every time I try something different, I’m just not happy. However, lately I’ve noticed more buzz/scratchy sound coming from my finger picks. I’m wondering if that could be a sign that my picks are worn out. How do you know when metal picks are worn out? Is it a visible wearing down or just a sound? Thanks.
I have the Ernie Ball finger picks . I have the Russ Carson and JD Crowe blue chip thumb picks . What brand of banjo do you play ? I have a beginner type and a Deering .
great choice on the finger picks! I mainly play a Deering sierra .. I also have a Deering Senator for clawhammer. I keep a couple deering goodtimes around to practice with.
The Pickey Picks are great. I have used them for 30 years.
ive been using them for about 5 years, but i will never use anything different now! they are great.
I agree with the Blue Chip thumb picks. Matt does a great job!
they are fantastic!
yes, Blue Chip thumb pick is great. The finger picks are nice but it's more a matter of trying whatever you like, but the thumb pick is #1
I am considering picking up a Recording King RK R35 . How do you feel about that banjo ?
dang it, was on the fence at the 40 dollar mark but after this video im going buy one! thanks for sharing
you wont regret it!

fantastic! just keep on picking and always remember to have fun!
OMG 5:58 just noticed. funny
@@AnnLippert1 lol what made me laugh was how long it took for me to realize what I had done ! Ha ha
The buzz is caused by the pick hitting the string on its side, not the tip. I bend my finger picks to hit the tip on the string.
Good advice.

You're welcome!
Nice video! Thanks
Glad you liked it!
Kudos to your video editor BTW.
Aww thank you!
So with the Blue chip thumb pick, how do you know what size to get?
If you have thick hands go with the large
can you play Fleetwood Mac ~ Albatross on a 5 string banjo
Dont know, i have never tried... im sure it could be done though.
