A Complete Guide for Beginning and Advanced Banjo Players

From Ken Perlman, author of best-selling Fingerstyle Guitar and Clawhammer Banjo books, here is a brilliant teaching guide that is destined to become the handbook on how to play the banjo. Clawhammer is the one purely American style of playing what is probably the one truly American musical instrument. The style is easy to learn, highly suited to playing alone, and rapidly becoming an exciting, popular band style. Now you can master clawhammer syle banjo, and this one-of-a-kind guide (featuring slow, gradual lessons) shows you how.

The author, a professional musician and gifted teacher, leads you step by step to a thorough understanding of the instrument, teaching basic right and half-hand positions, simple chords, and fundamental clawhammer techniques: the brush, the "bumm-titty" strum, pull-offs, slides and more.

Then, when you're ready for more complicated picking, the author eases you into double-thumbing, quick slides, fretted pull-offs, harmonics, improvisation, and the other important tools of the trade. But you won't have any trouble keeping up, because the book includes more than 70 fun-to-play banjo tunes designed to let you practice each technique as you learn it!

If you're a beginner, Clawhammer Style Banjo is the best teacher you could ever have. As you graduate from tune to tune, you'll marvel at your own talent and expertise. If you've been clawhammering for a while, this guide will help you extend your knowledge and repertoire and serve as a useful reference book.

So whatever your skill level, share the author's fine appreciation and practical knowledge of the art of Clawhammer Banjo.
