Crevs  .. put the Bitch back in the corner ..next time you pick her up your back in love ...
             
              Sorry Ladies !

              Strange why it happens what do you pro's do to snap out of it ?

Hey Detman  Don't give up look what Django Reinhardt could do with just 2 working fingers
                     on his left hand...

                  Topdown ...that was funny ..thks 

Perhaps they should rename the tune "Sweet David Brown" 

Hi Newplucker just a couple of things that might help...
    The "F" chord is not easy to get the hang of but it can be done !
     First get that wrist bent so your "barre" finger is nice and flat against the fret board.
     sit up and try not to turn the guitar towards you too see your fingering as this changes
     the wrist postion.
     If you find the stretch a bit too much try moving the "F" shape upto the 5th fret then the
     chord becomes an "A" but you will find it is some 1/2 inch (12mm) less between the frets
     practice that then stretch a bit more by moving down to the 3rd fret now a"G" and play
     practice playing between the two then slip on down to the first "F" 

     A metronome is good idea or tap your foot but start slowly get those chords sounding
     clean and yeah no way out Practice,Practice,Practice ... sorry 

     Hope this helps ...  Most of all have fun.

Merry christmas Marc to you and yours... Iam still pickin at that 5 string....

Hi Scruff  Try clicking on songs at the top of the page and select "N" and  find Nut Bush ...you will
               find two versions there ... play with the box on the right if you want to change key..

              Have Fun

Hey evsynator   Sorry to hear your plight...I know I bust my ankle some 18 yrs ago and had a plate
                        put in ..still got it..lol  Promise I won't mention the itching in the plaster cast you
                        can't reach..oopps! Still you got me thinking ..I said in earlier post that I was going
                        to build a cabin by my little lake and have always had an idea of letting it out cheap
                        to Acoustic folks as a "practice session shed" I put all the services under ground last
                        year ...what yer think?

Charlotte  I think its ok but ask admin to be sure...if its ok start new post "Fender FB58 for sale"

Hi Ian   I have been at the Banjo for about 3 weeks trying to learn Bluegrass style.as I have
            been looking for lessons on good ol "you tube" I have seen some blues Banjo stuff
            on there...give it a try ..Oh and welcome good site this ..all sorts of opinions and
            advice....   Mark

Hi Buffalo ..yes your right I have been using picks for 3 weeks  and they now feel good
                 Just nailed first couple of bars of "Cripple Creek" still its a start...

                  Hey Doreen keep posting like to hear how another starter is doing!

Hi Stonebridge  I play "G" as you do ..I find it puts the 1st finger in a good position to help in a "G" lick
                       and the 2nd finger is in an easy position for quick bass run to "D" Also helps to get a
                       quick change to "C".... Like you I might have been doing it wrong for years...but it works.

Hi  Marcalan thanks for your post..looks like us Banjer players are thin on the ground on here ... lol
    suprised just how much noise theese little critters make when you play them,I have about 5 acres
    of woods and water here so working on that shed as we speak !:lol:
