By Mary Ross


Imagine how sad life can be without those people who create music out of their feelings. These outburst of words sure goes a long way in helping people to express what they want to express. They could use this as means of communication straight to the heart for those who feels the same way as them. There really is something about the lyrics that can speak through emotions of people. Though, with lyrics alone rhythm and melody is not present so instruments play a huge role in the making of good songs. Though, banjos are one of those underrated string instruments, it also make one of the very best sound there is and it can be gotten through custom made banjos which is indeed nice.

Banjos are one of a kind with its versatility that comes in multiple and various flavor to fit every musical style there is. It can have different numbers of string depends on someone who uses it, so basically for someone new to this, they get to choose the type they want to work on. The best way to learn this instrument is by making sure the student gets to choose something suitable for them.

So, the four stringed banjos are typically being used for a jazzy tune like how Irish do their music. Five string are commonly used on traditional songs because they create a folkish tune that fits perfectly on traditional song. Then, last are six strings which are perfect for those who knew how to play guitar. This basically gives out banjo quality of music but through a guitar like style of playing.

True enough, those with string instrument background has an edge when trying to study banjos. Even if there are differences, at the very least their fingers are already used to movements so speeding it up and moving around is something they would not have to worry of. So start of, they will just have to ensure they create enough space between their fingerboard to its string distance.

Once that area is settled, begin tubing in the banjo. For those who are not capable of doing it because they do not know how try asking someone who knows how to do that. They may as well visit the web to look for tutorials on how they can possibly do it on their own. For an easier tuning anywhere, try using electric tuners. They are efficient and extra convenient.

Adjust the body and make oneself comfortable enough to play without any hassle at all. Posture is very important when playing the banjo. Then work on the hands appropriately because this too is the basic fundamental of playing banjos properly.

Learn and study how to do picking. It usually is just a motion of sweeping fingers up and down but for newbies, this really is the most challenging part because it hurts the longer one tries. Anyway, try using the nails to make the pain a little lesser or invest on a pick to be used when plucking.

Then go ahead and do some basic rolls. These are patterns one has to follow to perform basic songs using banjos. For visual learners, it really is easier if they try watching videos on the internet because they can follow through that more effectively.

When the student has already learned all the basic, do not be afraid to move on the challenging ones. This is where the timing is improved along with a good and impressive picking style. Just practice more or as often as needed and enjoy making the tune and melody out of any instrument being played because music is meant to be enjoyed generally.
