Moon Moon Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 i am really interested in taking up banjo, i need to research it a bit more but a 5 string one would do lovely, nothing too expensive either. Tempt me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Gold Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 Good choice for a second instrument. Cheap banjos are fairly soul destroying though. If you can get hold of an open-backed model (as opposed to one with a resonator), they're a lot more forgiving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonade Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 I had a banjo, never really got very far with it. Learning the chords was easy enough but the strumming technique is totally different, it's almost like finger picking and strumming simultaneously. Soon added it to the list of instruments I bought and never really learned how to play, along with my keyboard, my ukulele, my clarinet, my trumpet...
