Great lesson Benny, very helpful! I've just stumbled across your channel, I've been playing for 5 years now, learning everything from UA-cam, unfortunately there aren't any teachers around my part of the world! Thank god for the Internet!
Really amazed by your work and music. I was looking for the 'tip jar' but couldn't find it? Apparently, it has been renamed to 'Super Thanks' but I still couldn't find it. Is it still there somewhere?
Thanks so much for listening along and I'm so glad the lesson helps. It's certainly not required, but you can send tips at paypal.me/bennybleu I appreciate it!
@@BennyBleu Done! I did not quite know where to go with my banjo, torn between Bluegrass and Clawhammer, but now, knowing how you play, Clawhammer it is! Thank you.
Hi Daniel, thanks a lot! Yep, nylon strings on the old Dobson at the second half of the video, steel strings on the Hickory Street banjo in the beginning. Thanks for watching :)
Hi Jes! Yes, I teach online lessons weekly. Here's a link to a general clawhammer resource page including more info about lessons: bennybleu.com/banjo/
I like this way of learning the chords first rather than trying to add them to a melody afterwards, so thank you!
Cool, thanks a lot for watching and I'm glad you got something from it 8^)
I will do this lesson! Thanks for your sympathic way of teaching.
Good luck, and feel free to reach out any time! bennybleu.com/contact/

Thanks a lot Nancy! So glad you got something from it. Feel free to reach out any time at bennybleu.com
Willow Garden kicks butt. Really, it sounds lovely on banjo. Thanks Benny, you da man!

Hi Benny, Just discovered your wonderful videos. Are those Nylgut strings on the banjo used in this lesson? Sounds so nice an plunky.
